Very nice!
Curious what it will look like!

Great to hear this news! I take it the case/artwork design will be the same as the previous Arrow Blu-Rays?

Thanks so much, Arrow & Almar! Wow...will there be more Bava or is this a test at this point to see how his film does?

Wow...just, wow...

Just to clarrify what bgart13 is saying,there are two versions of 'Bay Of Blood',filmed back to back,one in italian and one which was used for the English dub,the Italian version is unique to the RARO VIDEO dvd in Italy,It is
not possible to use the Italian audio over the English dubbed version as it will not fit,the scenes were shot twice.I hope Arrow can use both versions of the film,It would be one hell of an extra !

I'll say to this the same thing I said about Dario Argento Blu-Ray releases: you keep releasing Mario Bava films on Blu-Ray disc, and I will keep buying them, day one. As simple as that...

Well, if you want me to I can ask Anolis if they have a high definition transfer of the film. Sadly, when asked a while back they said that they're not planning on releasing Blu-rays in the (near) future ... maybe that has changed since Blu-ray shouldn't be tooooo expensive to produce anymore.

Almar, any idea if BAY will be region-free or not?

Re: BLOOD & BLACK LACE -- would love to see a blu-ray of it! Needs to have the English track included with the Italian, however.
