I'd say X-Rated Kult were one of, if not the most, collectable company around.

I do rate Midnite Movies very highly though.

Subjective, but I also see BFI as a 'collectable' DVD label, and would probably have put them near (if not at) the top. Ditto Eureka.

What about Raro and NoShame.? Maybe NoShame don't count as they are now sadly defunct.

Forgot about the kings of re-packaged discs!

Artwork is key; discs are secondary.

CMV, XT, '84 Entertainment, Dragon etc. could also fit into this bracket.

No, X-Rated are way more collectable.

You could easily fill your Arrow, BU, Raro or Shameless collection's but X-Rated, with their 4 different hardboxes for one title, small hardboxes, regular amaray editions and the limited 300, 99 & 33 editions, are for real hardcore collectors. There must be well over 300 of them, some of which have never been released anywhere else. It'd be next to impossible to get them all.

That's true - especially if you include their misprints.

Some stiff competition there!

I wouldn't rate SWV as high as that though......

No Arrow Video / Arrow Academy and no X-Rated? Bloody hell, most forum members and Mr Bethmann/Bertucci will be fit to be tied!

His list ain't too bad, though. Blue Underground, Roger Corman's Cult Classics, Shameless, Criterion, Something Weird, and Midnite Movies would be among my picks as well.

And...of course! Synapse... if only because of their release of Radley Metzger's The Image on Blu-ray!

Greetings!

Great list, and I'd definitely add Noshame to that list, as well!
