The only version I saw was a terrible DVD that looked like a second generation VHS and I missed out on the Code Red blu-ray so I'll gladly take it until something better comes along. And I love that shirt.

edit: I've never done a pre-order with Diabolik. When I got the receipt it said "backordered" but it charged my paypal account. Is it listed as backordered just because it's a pre-order and not in stock yet? When you go to the page to buy them it doesn't say sold out or anything and I figured if they took my money it must be available.

Yeah, you should be fine. Keep an eye on it next month/keep the receipt email just in case, obv. I’ve also never preordered with them but they’re usually good service

Diabolik treats preorders as back orders on their status thing and they won't let you order something, even preorder, if they don't think they can get the stock to fill the order. Unlike deepdiscount :argh:

You're welcome! I seriously have no idea why it's not more well known. Just an excellent action movie.

I can dig, still worth a watch for the B movie fans in this thread I'd say. I found out about Tammy and the T-Rex in here, good times. Dudikoff is really good and funny in Radioactive Dreams. Pyun in his prime!

Edit:
World Gone Wild is a surprisingly exhaustive reference guide to post-apocalyptic movies. The Radioactive Dreams section has an interview with Pyun.

I still have to watch that on streaming. I didn’t want to blow $30 on a movie a bunch of people were yelling about being awful in the thread.

Gothic sounded right up my alley and I almost grabbed it when Vestron released it. I ended up really not liking it so it’s good I didn’t buy it first.

It's funny looking back on that now because those three films were part of a deal Hooper had with Cannon Films, and at the time they were NOT happy about how that deal turned out for them. Lifeforce and Invaders From Mars were financial failures, and the one big thing they thought was bankable, the TCM sequel, turned out to be an absurd black comedy and the critical response was not good.

Now most people agree that Hooper made three excellent films for Cannon but they didn't think so at the time. Hooper transitioned into doing t.v. work after that.

The HDR really punches it up to another level, but if you’re good with your existing blu ray and would rather just wait for a sale to upgrade I would recommend that.

I've only seen the first, the others had their trailers played constantly in the early 90's on the TV Guide channel. I still remember seeing the Lady Dragon trailer playing almost non-stop (side note, I'm guessing that will be a VSA title sooner or later)
