Received my Code Red Dead Pit and Messiah of Evil today. :woot: |

The DVD-R looks like it was taken from a panned and scanned Japanese laserdisc (or exceptionally mint VHS), so good audio, OK if a bit fuzzy video, forced but unobtrusive Japanese subtitles but compromised framing. The film really, really needs a 16:9 release. The 4:3 version was very cramped and looked quite wrong to me. I'm glad I finally saw it again, but this is only a stop gap until I force someone to release a decent version! :laugh: |
Lucky man!! "The Wolf Man" - Universal. Upgrade from VHS dupe. "Miracle Mile" - Shockingly ignored little gem that is masterfully crafted, well acted and that manages to expertly combine excitement, laughs and tears A long time fave. Upgrade from VHS dupe. "Unarmed and Dangerous" - Brit martial arts/gangster flick with a stumpy armed 'Thalidomide' victim as its ass kicking, Kung Fu, hero! |
Universal Horror: Classic Movie Archive (Universal) Dinner with the Vampire (A-Film,R2) Blood Sabbath (Pegasus,R2) |
Just purchased: Messiah of Evil (Code Red) Hardware (Severin) Night of Death (Synapse) Woodoo - Zombie 2 (Because you can never have enough Zombie Flesh Eaters in your collection!) |
I picked up a copy of Machine Girl on blu-ray at CEX. Hopefully it will be as much gory fun as Meatball Machines and Tokyo Gore Police |

1 Attachment(s) Finished watching Machine Girl on BR a few mins ago. Its really fantastic. Its about a girl who gets her arm chopped off for trying to get back at her brothers killers, she comes back at them for revenge with a machinece gun arm.Tonnes of blood drenched top gore, some cool martial arts, and a load of over the top evil Yakuza just dying to be slaughtered. I belive this was made by the same people as Tokyo Gore Police and Meatball Machines. These guys have obviously learned their trade watching early Peter Jackson and Sam Raimi as the gore and style are very reminissent of Bad Taste and Evil Dead. There is also an excellent homage to Master of The Flying Guillotine with the main Yakuza boss uing the fatal weapon to decapitate and remove limbs. I reccomend this to eveyone!!! :thumb: |

The Blue Underground disk of Stagefright (Soavi not Hitch!) turned up this morning...I don't actually remember ordering it! I already have the Vipco DVD which I watched recently...I wonder if I subsequently decided I wanted to see the matted 16:9 version when...ahem...refreshed by beverage... :laugh: |
