Home Video: Upcoming Blu-Rays and DVDs

[Hedji]

Scream Factory announced 14 new titles coming at Comic Con. Including their first of likely many Hammer Titles: Dracula, Prince of Darkness! This opens the door for lots more Hammer to come from this label. Here is the LINK for more information. Personally, I am also interested in Candyman, Critters, Saturday the 14th, Silent Night Deadly Night Part 2, and Starman.

This one is huge for me. Warner Archives announced Jonny Quest will be coming to Blu Ray, from the original unedited broadcast prints! LINK for Information

[Hedji]

Whew! I've got a lot to catch up on! Let's start with one on many people's wishlist: Batman The Animated Series will be coming to Blu Ray:

Dragonslayer is high on my list also...as well as the rest of the Warner Hammer releases.

Still no Curse of Frankenstein or Horror of Dracula...

Paramount.

They're not very forthcoming with catalogue titles. 80s favorites like Young Sherlock Holmes, Explorers, and Dragonslayer are high on my list.

[Bruce Banner]

I agree completely. Love Dragonslayer. That's another Blu-ray release which is long overdue.

[Werewolf]

Just watched Dragonslayer a couple weeks ago. Man, I really liked that movie as a kid, and it totally holds up!

It really is brilliant and CGI has yet to top the practical effects of the Vermithrax Pejorative.

Besides Blackhole I'm surprised Dragonslayer has yet to get a Blu-ray release. HD transfers already exist for both.

I'll certainly celebrate when the Blu-ray release of The Black Hole is finally announced.

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark is coming from Arrow video this year. Not sure it will be region free, but it's only a matter of time.

I can't remember where, but I thought I'd read a rumor about the Eddie Romero Blood Island movies.... I'll have to do some digging.

If Black Hole is released, it will likely be through Disney's movie club only.

Yeah, Black Hole is weird to me but I guess when you own Star Wars...

[enyawd72]

The big three that I actually can't believe aren't out already are The Black Hole, War of the Worlds, and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1932)

[palitoy]

Just curious, what’s on your shortlist? I think I can guess a few. As a Bava fan, I too would love to see Danger Diabolik get a quality release.

That would be terrific.

I guess the ones I'd go nuts for would be stuff like the "Blood Island' series, almost anything Independant International made, Elvira and that sort of thing.

They tend to be gravitating towards 80s VHS titles (that's probably pretty lucrative) but slasher stuff leaves me cold.

[palitoy]

Is it still available? If so, I'm interested.

Yeah, PM me your address and it's yours.
