Inferno - Now You Own It - Your Reactions

[Calum]

So... onto the next thing, yes?

[Stephen@Cult Labs]

Yeah lets move on people.

[Calum]

Lots of sites - really big name sites at that - loved Inferno, one blog did not - and judging from this blog it's not a solitary case: the fella dislikes practically every BD ever and has free time enough to rant away on each of them. Which is entirely up to him but there's no point ranting against his opinion just as there's no point ranting against the many who outnumber him and who love Inferno and other recent Blu Ray releases.

As for me, I adored the BD transfer. I'm biased, obviously, but I thought this was a bigger step up from standard def than COTLD, Day of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead you name it.

And I'm not so biased I won't say I flipped the "ass" cover over immediately

Haha that was the 1st thing I did when I opened it. Straight over to the classic skull artwork.

Also good, as always, to see a new Alan Jones booklet. I'm a big fan of Alan's work - especially his Profondo Argento book (which those just discovering Argento via these splendid releases owe it to themselves to snap up).

That's something I've not read. Think I need to search out a copy.

A bit pricey but well worth it:

Profondo Argento: Amazon.co.uk: Alan Jones: Books

Also worth checking out is the epic (and I mean EPIC) Tim Lucas tome on Mario Bava. Luigi Cozzi sold me mine for 200 Euros (ouch!) but it was still a worthy purchase. I don't know how you'd find it now...?

It's a lot cheaper over at Fab Press' site:

Profondo Argento: The Man, the Myths and the Magic, by Alan Jones at FAB Press Online

Nice! Again, highly recommended.

You could always sell me yours for £25? No? Oh well, worth a try.
