Last night, the New Beverly Cinema kicked off the "Greats of Roth" Film Fest (details) bringing the house down with Sergio Martino's Torso and the jaw-dropping Pieces by Juan Piquer Simón. A full blog report is coming soon, however, it's worth noting now that Roth - the host for the evening - announced No Shame Films is prepping a new DVD release of Torso. Meanwhile, Sage Stallone's terrific-looking print of Pieces will be issued through Grindhouse Release in the near future. More details as they come in...

Excelent. Will be picking both up on DVD as I only have Torso on VHS, and a very crappy fullscreen version of Pieces (which I'm sure everyone has).

Great news!
I must be psychic....

NoShame Films are releasing two Sergio Martino Gialli in the near future.This is already old news.
But these discs are part of their "Sergio Martino Collection".Their next release will be "Your Vice Is A Locked Door...".
So what do you think,do they have all the rights to Sergio Martino's movies?Will we see yet a new and improved "Torso"?
I read that apparently NoShame is run by people who worked for Anchor Bay and Blue Underground.
If NoShame got the rights for Martino films just like Bill Lustig got those of Argento we can expect some more.
This is just my guess though.
Any opinions

Pieces is one of my all time favorites. Can't wait.

Yeah, well it's Grindhouse Releasing... so you'll just have to wait.

I've got the same crappy full screen transfer of Pieces, so I can't frigging wait for these. Hopefully these'll be out soon.

Sorry, not interested. I have Torso already, and i have Pieces already (German release which looks great). So these are merely "meh". Nothing new coming, it seems..............

Bastard! BASTARD!! BASTARD!!!!!!!

DrHerbertWest · 02-19-2008, 01:50 AM

I will buy both if they ever materialize.

"in the near future" would be 2010 I guess.

What made me like Eli Roth was when I found out the whole "PANCAKES!" thing from Cabin Fever was a little in-joke to the chop suey scene. Made no damn sense, but it's absolutely hilarious.

Also, you've gotta love Lynda Day George in Day of the Animals when she makes every shot look like a 70s shampoo commercial.

You're an optimist! "More details as they come in..." I'm projecting 2010 as to when these details (ie: special features) will materialize for Pieces.
