People poo poo all over Creepshow 2 and in some ways they're absolutely right, but the THANKS FOR THE RIDE, LADY segment is pure art.

Is that Donnie Darko release going to have anything not on the us releases? It's fascinating how much goodwill Kelly has burned with literally every other movie he's done. The Box was ok.

The Box was ok. I haven't compared the special features yet, but just the transfer alone sounds like it's new - 4k-sourced "restoration" of both the theatrical and directors cut. Not that the old BD was too shabby looking, but I'm definitely curious to see this new scan.

The only clunker in that movie is the wooden Indian segment, the rest is gold. I think some people dislike it because it's not as good as the first film and it drops the whole comic booky EC thing it had going on.

Creepshow 2 has the tar monster, yeah? Edit: Yeah it does. That and the aforementioned segment make it worth watching.

Creepshow is slightly better than Creepshow 2, just because it has 5 stories, which is a better number for an anthology. All three segments in Creepshow 2 are good though, even Old Chief Woodenhead.

Armyman25 posted:Hell comes to Frogtown Who knew that Mad Max: Fury Road borrowed its plot from a low budget Roddy Piper vehicle? Piper stars at Sam Hell, one of the few fertile men left after the apocalypse. Captured by the government, he's given over to the care of Sandahl Bergman to rescue a group of fertile women being held as the harem of a desert warlord, who happens to be a mutated frog. Piper is given an explosive chastity belt that is set to go off if he uses his equipment for anything other than government sanctioned use. The movie features "Lord Toadie," the evil frog warlord, dressed as the Lord Humongous, who forces Bergman to dance for his "three snakes." It's a good bit of fun.

I was gonna say, if the loving Guyver is what finally gets me to buy a region-free player, that's pretty hosed up. Bullet dodged, though.

I was a much bigger fan of Guyver: Dark Hero (even though it was filmed in a park). Even Luke Skywalker can't save the original for me. VvV The Sci-Fi channel ran a double feature once. That's probably the version they played. FilthyImp fucked around with this message at 05:29 on Sep 11, 2016 |

Wait, there's a goreless version of The Guyver? The gently caress? Even as a kid, the gore was easily the best part of that movie.

Yeah, weirdly enough the theatrical version was the toned down "director's cut" and the original VHS was the gorier version

So this seems like the best place to ask this question. I've recently moved to another country, and had to leave my collection behind. So I've been getting some essentials on digital from Amazon. Does amazon do holiday type sales for their digital movies? For an example, I can get the 6 movie collection for Star Wars at $85 but I can wait if it will go down in price in the next couple months.

Theres a coupon deal thread just for digital movies and TV show deals. I'd say sales are more rare than physical though but it could be worth waiting for black Friday and such. You can also start a thread asking to buy people's ultraviolet codes. Fastest and cheapest way to build up a digital collection.

For an example, I can get the 6 movie collection for Star Wars at $85 but I can wait if it will go down in price in the next couple months. They do sales but they very rarely do deep discount sales. The recent trend is that really old movies get marked down to $5-7.99 while newer movies or super popular movies get marked down to $9.99. And they've been getting really hot on doing $0.99 rentals for certain movies. I watched Creed, Hateful Eight and Anomalisa that way. Depending on what country you're in, you may be able to watch the Star Wars movies on your local Netflix. That would be worth a check.

New Frankenstein set is nice. It has the entire Universal series (Frankenstein, Bride, Son, Meets The Wolf Man, Ghost, House of, House of Dracula, and Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein)   Also, Criterion's new edition of The Immortal Story is one of the best looking discs I've ever seen:

Modus Pwnens posted:Is there any reason to think that Criterion won't out out a region A version within the next few years? It's not out of the question, but I haven't seen anything suggesting that a Criterion release is even rumored; Arrow's release is available now. The Arrow set is also likely to be cheaper than a hypothetical CC BD release - my Arrow set cost about $45 shipped from Amazon.co.uk, which is about as much as Criterion's DVD set goes for now (and it also retailed for $80 originally).
