Bear in mind that Lustig was heavily involved with the Anchor Bay US releases at the start of the Millennium, a time when the industry was at its peak, he's seen a bigger decline than many of his younger competitors. I'm sure that would be quite disheartening.
Let's hope he doesn't stop.

Few titles lately,but that doesn't stop BU from being one of the finest labels out there.
Who else would be bothered to release Zombie Creeping Flesh and Rats Night of Terror?

Besides-don't throw any towel in Bill until you've given us the massively underrated SHOCK WAVES on Blu Ray mate!

I'll be buying his STAGEFRIGHT along with the UK release as well.
