It's nice to see Nightmare finally making it's way uncut to DVD. With the way genre DVD sales have gone the past few years it should sell about 3000 to 4000 units.

What on earth are you talking about?! 3000-4000? Where do these numbers come from? Do you know that most of Bill's sales don't come anywhere near that? Why would NIGHTMARE sell that many? Don't get me wrong, it'd be great for CR and Bill if it did, but that's highly unrealistic, IMO. I think he's released more substantial titles than NIGHTMARE, and those haven't sold near that amount, let alone 1,000. Someone in Germany and/or the UK will probably bootleg it anyways...

Be positive Ben! Let's hope it sells well and doesn't get booted. I'm just guessing sir.

Can't see a UK company bootlegging it. The only stuff that get's bootlegged over here are the old Vipco titles and most of them were bootlegs anyway!

They haven't released anything over here for a while.

No UK company will boot it and the assumption that they will is a bit unfair.

I wasn't saying that Jef films were going to boot Nightmare, rather just pointing out that Vipco weren't/aren't the only company to be doing this in the UK. What about those Dead Of Night horror film discs that you see in HMV and other major high street stores with the ropey, washed-out covers that look awful? They are boots and when they set next to a lovely fully-loaded Arrow disc the difference between the two is eye watering!

I know. What I meant was, the only stuff that is really getting bootlegged at the moment are the old Vipco titles which are available on the 'Beyond Terror' label.
