In addition to that, MVD is getting Primetime Panic 2 (The Death of Richie, Incident at Crestridge, and The Seduction of Gina)

Fun fact: The Death of Richie is one of Vincent Gallo's favorite movies, and is the reason why he cast Ben Gazzara as his dad in Buffalo '66.

ooof that's quite the price, but I do have an affinity for the Emanuelle series (only ever seen a handful of them so it would be cool to see the rest).

picked up the Emanuelle sell sheet for Emanuelle in Bangkok for now. maybe if its still around when I get my bonus from my job I might go ahead and grab that boxset.

Flicker Alley just announced Laurel & Hardy: Year One for July 25

It'll include all 13 extant silent comedies from 1927, plus a few earlier films that featured them not as a team yet. All newly restored with new scores, commentaries, and other materials.

https://www.flickeralley.com/classic-movies-2/#!/Laurel-&-Hardy-Year-One/p/548888251/category=20414531

Seems like they'll continue with the 1928 films next year and the 1929 films the year after.

(There's a 4-disc Blu set of restored sound films from MVD that's a mix of 1929-1935 short comedies plus the feature films Way Out West and Sons of the Desert).

Looking over the Black Emanuelle set, the specs are really impressive.

quote:

She was the pleasure-seeking photojournalist – forever embodied by the exquisite Indonesian actress Laura Gemser, most frequently in collaboration with writer/director Joe D’Amato – who would uncover an increasingly lurid world of sex cults, snuff films, cannibal jungles, women’s prisons, white slavers, depraved convents, and beyond to become the premier feminist icon in genre history. This landmark collection produced by award-winning writer/director Kier-La Janisse now brings together 21 BLACK EMANUELLE films, 2 adjacent titles starring EuroCult heroine Ajita Wilson, and the D’Amato documentary INFERNO ROSSO, most newly scanned, restored, and on Blu-ray for the first time in America. The journey continues with 2 soundtrack CDs curated exclusively for this release encompassing music by Nico Fidenco and more, the lavishly illustrated 356-page THE BLACK EMANUELLE BIBLE designed by Luke Insect and featuring new writings by noted film scholars and historians as well as Laura Gemser’s in-depth 1996 Nocturno Magazine interview, and over 40 hours of Special Features that include alternate versions, audio commentaries, video essays, a documentary on Gemser’s husband/co-star Gabriele Tinti, the ‘80s Gemser workout video Looking Good, and much more.

Black Emanuelle was made to cash in on the success of the French film Emmanuelle with Sylvia Kristel, which was released the year before.[citation needed]

Albertini claims it was he who omitted one m in the name of the lead character, in contrast to the French Emmanuelle character.[3]

It was deliberately omitted to avoid copyright claims.[citation needed]

so the basic story of some enterprising Italian filmmakers riding a trend, making something way more interesting due to budget/creativity

this one doesn't hold up so great after 20 years, tbh...or the me who was laughing at it in the theater back then was more easily amused then the me who rewatched it recently

e: could just be a lot of the things in the film don't hit as well the second time when you are expecting things..i remember being blown away by the opening sequence fakeout in the first minute or two back then...

i also wonder if some of the context is lost from the time period it was released. post 9/11 there was a few years of this overcorrection of shows of patriotism like whoever could decorate the most poo poo with american flags was coping the best or something..plus the very broad and almost encouraged muslim xenophobia

Ah, you're right.

I am pretty happy with my Orgazmo DVD—the memories of how that DVD came into being warrant its continued presence in my collection—I should get the Blu-ray one of these days, it's the only thing from that whole Trey and Matt cycle that still holds up for me. Also it can be had for a tenner and that's about the limit to what I'd ever want to spend.

Cannibal the musical has the best commentary track if you've never had the chance to partake. I remember liking both orgazmo and basketball, I should give those a rewatch and see how they fare.
