Crystal Plumage · 02-21-2006, 08:52 PM

With all titles now listed having a release date.I'd really like to know what they're up to next

.
Any ideas?

SaviniFan · 02-21-2006, 08:56 PM

I'd like to see a good release for Maniac Cop.

I'd really like to see individual non-coffin box set editions of the Blind Dead Series.

Me too. I've heard that Synapse is releasing all of the Maniac Cop films, though.

They're releasing the first film at least.

From their website (http://www.synapse-films.com):

MANIAC COP (1988) – Fantastic cult killer cop movie that spawned two sequels. Synapse will be doing a brand new HD master in 5.1 surround sound. Extras to be announced.

Yes,that's what we all know from the BU site.Thanks for posting them anyway but I'm talking about their next batch of upcoming DVDs.No info found anywhere

.

Doh! I read that wrong at first and thought they were releasing Michele Soavi's La Setta. Oh well, I'm greatly looking forward to the four gialli on March 28th.

Oh, sorry I didn't read that carefully enough, I thought you said everything listed on their page was already out. I thought that would be rather sloppy of them, I should have looked at the link you gave.

What's with Maniac Cop anyways? How on earth did Don May Jr. snatch that up from William Lustig? You'd think Blue Underground was a heavy enough hitter to be able to out bid Synapse Films if Lustig really wanted it. May also snatched up Basket Case 2 before Frank Henenlotter of Something Weird, you'd also think Frank would have been bidding for that as well. I recall those both surprising the hell out of me in the same announcement.

Nothing there that excites me (or that I know anything about, to be honest.) BU is such a great company...I hope they can get their hands on some more domestic classic 80's horror!

Johnny Macabre · 02-22-2006, 04:33 AM

Four Flies On Grey Velvet. I imagine it's been discussed on an other thread but does anyone know why this Argento flick doesn't have a region 1 release yet???

Same reason that I imagine why it hasn't been released in ANY region yet.

Rights issues?
