I have yet to own any Code Red releases, but this thread keeps making me want't to change that! I think my first purchase will be Nightmare, as I just love Aussie horror.

I just hope it doesn't go oop before I find the cash to buy it.

NIGHTMARE is the american film, NIGHTMARES is the Australian film. It's just been released by Severin

I cannot wait till Cutthroats Nine - never seen it!

I still haven't had a chance to watch Devil Times Five, but a quick look at it confirms the PQ is astoundingly better than the public domain version I saw last month.

CUT THROATS NINE isn't that good, it's certainly very violent but boring IMO.

Though to be fair I have only seen it via a really crap bootleg.

Doh, I always get those two mixed up! Thanks for pointing out it was actually Severin who released Nightmares, as I was under the illusion that it was Code Red.

You do work for Code Red marketing don't you Bdc?

But I'm expecting Cut Throats to ship soon as well (same release date)...

Your marketing techniques sure do work, this is a must buy for me.

WTF? Get off this blog and never return!

Rule 1 - Never say a Code Red release is poor.

The moderator will be out to get you.

I like Cut-Throats Nine...great soundtrack as well.

Originally this was to be a standalone release with interviews and a replica "terror mask":

"I'd just like to let everyone about the two releases that didn't turn out the way I wanted. CUTTHROATS NINE was supposed to be a deluxe edition with an interview by English language rights owner Serafim Karalexis (president of United International Pictures) who paid the filmmakers to re-shoot the violent scenes, an interview with Jim Markovic who re-cut the film and made the trailer, and also a copy of the "terror mask" that was given out to audiences at the theatre box-office. In the end, Markovic couldn't find the original mask, and Serafim didn't want to do the interview. Without extras, I could never outsell the 2,000 copies Eurovista moved on this title. Since the Fred Williamson series sold less than 750 copies, releasing JOSHUA alone would also be a losing proposition. I figured that instead of sitting on the two films, why not double bill two titles that were going nowhere for a single release. Both films are mastered from 35mm prints and they look a lot better then those "other" releases (JOSHUA looks ten times better than those PD labels!)" (Bill/CR)
