Thanks Treb, this is one of the nicest Steelbooks I've seen, I'm not usually a fan but this one is nice :D

MWC contains one of the very funniest moments I've ever seen, it's when Al Bundy reads his list of ways Marcy can be made more attractive to men and is just sublime and Amanda Bearse as Marcy plays it perfectly, on first viewing I almost wet myself with laughter, have no idea whereabouts in the series it is but it's a true highlight.

I've never seen Married with Children and have very little idea of the character dynamics in the scene, but I must admit it's pretty damn funny.

Al Bundy is one of my hero's in life. :hail::hail:

BTW-For anyone who missed the TT release,this has a removable certificate sticker under the cellophane!:cool:

Bought 2 films from HMV today. The Burning and Broadway Danny Rose - two polar opposites of movie viewing! Will be fun to revisit both classic films, I haven't seen them for several years.. :)

A trio of new Powerhouse Films/Indicator discs today. They're hitting it out of the ballpark with their releases.

I got my copy at hmm but have found scratches on it, doubt they will let me return it, and don't have the receipt anymore.

In my opinion the glossy plastic finish make sit seem a little cheap.

Arrived:

Syndicate Sadists arrived from 88 Films today. Call me mad, but I prefer the Italian art on the slip and reverse.

I also received this and prefer the Italian art. It arrived in the same package as The Mighty Peking Man, which has the most brilliant artwork – I'll post some pictures shortly.

I've preordered Killer Constable from the 88 Films' website and used skull points to take £10 off the total. These two beauties arrived today as well, posted first class yesterday:

Mighty Peking Man is a bit of a gem.

I've had the region one dvd for years and have seen it quite a few times.

Had there been extra features i might have double dipped.

I haven't seen either before.

Just picked up The Ninja Trilogy for £10 in a charity shop. Winning.

What Have You Bought Recently?
 

A commentary from the legend, Bey Logan, is not too bad. Sure, it would've been nice to get more extras, but I haven't seen the film before, so it'll be a first time dip for me.

If you like written material, the first 300 units have a booklet written by Calum Waddell.

16 pages on third world water supply problems is it?

Sorry...couldn't resist.:laugh:

I'm 99% sure it is all relevant to the film and Asian cinema, with some good pictures to go with the text.

Last week or two's acquisitions. There's quite a few things I need to get but it's Mrs Boo and Junior Boo's birthdays which has curbed my spending a bit.

Both have dropped to £10.99 on Amazon/HMV so put in my pre-order:

Really looking forward to The Magus. I posted some lobby cards ages ago for it and it looked fascinating.

Just bought The Nail Gun Massacre which was delivered in amazons new bomb proof packaging for single blu-rays.

This looks like a spending spree but it's not :lol:

HMV and CEX came to £30 and I got 7 films! Amazed to see one of the rare BD slipcase editions of The Witch so grabbed that immediately. Popped into HMV to buy Shaun of the Dead which was £8.99 or I could buy the whole 'Cornetto Trilogy' for an extra £4 so that was a good buy as well.

Suspiria has arrived from Amazon Italy, just had a look and it's a great transfer, has a 2 channel mono soundtrack and the 5.1 HD DTS both in English or Italian with optional subtitles. The only extra is a 30 minute chat with Dario, it's in Italian with no subs, but seriously, what else is there to say about Suspiria, I still have my 2 disc Anchor Bay DVD and the Cine-Excess BD which both have excellent supplements on them. This edition is around £14.00 delivered from Amazon.

The Criterion films were 'free' with a 12 month Empire subscription which cost less than buying the 2 discs.

This weeks new arrivals

Some good films there Dem, i really like Alice, the Tenant and Beastmaster.:rockon:

Thanks, nos.

Oddly enough The Real Blonde was the one i was most happy to get hold of. It's not what you'd call a popular film and i'm sure it's deleted on dvd. I thought it was a real gem when i saw it at the cinema but it became lost in a glut of gore, at least to me, this last ten years.

I've not seen Alice, or The Tenant but The Beastmaster i used to own on vhs, probably cut though. At least this US dvd from Anchor Bay is complete and full of extras.

Never even heard of "The real Blonde."
The Tenant has a lot of the vibe of Rosemarys Baby i thought with the building and it's residents slowly driving Polanski mad.
Alice has some really well shot scenes,a creepy atmosphere and a few decent kills if i remember rightly. Great stuff.:pop2:

That's great to know. I have ordered it today, but the exchange rates must have changed, because it cost me £15.07.

I actually have an internet bank account that allows you to pay in any currency without fees so it's always a bit cheaper when buying in a foreign currency. When buying on Amazon and it automatically converts it to £ you click a button that says pay in Euros.

https://monzo.com/ if you're interested, I actually use it daily so I can keep track of my spending, but keep my main Barclays account for my bills etc.

I'll look into – thanks. I don't know if I do enough shopping in currencies other than sterling to warrant another bank account, but it might be worth it if it saves me a quid or do every now and again.

I use it more of a budgeting tool, I'll transfer over x-amount from my main account, and that's how much I'm allowed to spend on Lattes, Books and BDs. It helped me save for Japan! It also saved me money while there because I could take money out of the cash point at the best exchange rate possible.

I haven't seen The Real Blonde or The Beastmaster, but will add them to my 'to watch' list. If you're a fan of Polanski's psychological thrillers/horrors, you're in for a treat with The Tenant.
