Upcoming Shout Factory releases - Page 3

Rock 'n' Roll High School....that's fuckin' sweet. Saw that in blu-ray.com today and almost crapped my pants. This blu-ray release will mark the film's first anamorphic release on home video. All the previous DVDs (even the one re-released by Buena Vista that claimed to be 16x9 enhanced) were non-anamorphic.

This is one movie that SERIOUSLY needs and deserves a remaster. I cannot fucking wait. Day one purchase for me. To be honest, this is one of my most anticipated blu-ray releases. So excited.

WOW!!! First Up from the Depths, then Suburbia, and Rock n Roll High School. Will definitely attempt to double dip on those. Finally, the Corman library is getting released. I have to stop typing now, I have to put my head between my knees so I don't pass out (lol)!!!!!!

Looks like I have a few more VHS's to sell

I am quite happy about this one also. I still have the old Jewel Case version from Lumivision...never bothered to upgrade. But this BD will be mine. Very cool indeed.

I'll need some reviews on Piranha first before I decide to double dip or not.

wago70 · 01-15-2010, 06:15 PM

The 16:9 UK release of PIRANHA is nice - there's no reason they can do worse. Hopefully, that is...

Darga · 01-15-2010, 08:59 PM

I was already excited about the earlier list, but they just keep adding more titles. I've never seen either Forbidden World or Galaxy of Terror but I'm looking forward to checking them out.

MisterTwister · 01-15-2010, 11:05 PM

Interested in a few of these. What about Battle Beyond the Stars? Would love a SE of that one.

The original out of print DVD had tons of extras.

A pretty good one too, except for the transfer being just plain old letterbox. It's just about impossible to read some of the end credit roles on that one. I'd definitely welcome a new DVD/Blu-ray, hopefully with the previous extras carried over!

Excellent news all around. Looks like I can put my R2 Forbidden World/Mutant DVD into retirement.

Home Media Magazine got some release dates:

http://www.homemediamagazine.com/pro...-library-18079

Yet another release date for Starcrash. Will this truly be the one?

Katatonia · 01-21-2010, 12:25 AM

Whoa, Death Race 2000 on Blu-ray! Awesome!

I sure hope Starcrash is coming, it's well overdue for a quality DVD release.

satans-sadists · 01-21-2010, 03:57 AM

Can't wait for these, especially the Blu-Ray titles! I wish Humanoids From the Deep was getting a Blu-Ray release, but Death Race 2000 certainly makes up for it. Would be nice if the women in prison flicks The Big Bird Cage and The Big Doll House will be heading our way too.

eric_angelus · 01-21-2010, 04:03 AM

Give me Deathstalker II and I would be very happy.
