I am only really familiar with Almodovar up to around the under-rated Kika. Lost track of his later work (though have a fair bit of it waiting to be watched). So those sets cover my faves!

Dark Habits and Matador are truly wonderful films.

Enjoy!

Thanks, I will.

Yeh, I'm all post Kika really, although I have seen Matador, which really surprised as it was very different to anything else I'd seen by him.

Also they're what I consider wife-friendly, which means I'll get to watch some films with her over the hols :)

The print of halloween 2 leaves something to be desired, very pale and faded and not a patch on either the universal r1 dvd or the phenomenal region free universal blu-ray.
That said the commentary is excellent, I own the disc just for that.

Once A Thief contains a dvd sized cardboard replica of the painting! :loco:
It's (together with the dvd) inside a partly see-through plastic box,fun edition.
Awesome haul there. I have that Once A Thief DVD with the painting. Very cool.

yeah... Halloween 2 is a film I can totally live with having a weak transfer (I won't be upgrading), as I say I pretty much bought it for the commentary . . .

Just pre-ordered Kill List, released (annoyingly) on boxing day . . .
I know how you feel about that Teshigahara box set. I got it from the wife last year for my birthday and it had a medium sized smudge on the front. I tried to live with it and not nitpick, I couldn't do it, I had to return it. The second one I got was perfect. Just got to always wash hands prior to touching it, even if you thought that you just washed them.:)

...I wonder if it's an intentional sick joke by Criterion's design team that the cover art is one big fingerprint mark :mmph: . . .
