Cult Labs - What Have You Bought Recently?

Scarlet Street was a brill film. I bought the kino BD as a blind buy and didn't regret it one bit. Edward G. Robinson put in a fabulous performance. A great film noir. Its a genre I really want to explore some more.

I also love Film Noir - it's a genre I seriously neglected on DVD, (I used to have a load of them taped off the TV) but I'm trying to make up for that now on Blu.

Didn't think the Doctor Who "Ace Adventures" box set was out until Monday?

According to Amazon its not but if there is anything like here sets get released before release date all the time. I had the Scream blu ray set w/mask a good two weeks before release. Same with my complete Robotech.

Good pick ups. I've been wondering about the Ace adventures set. Let me know how it is. Doctor Who sets have the best features.

Yeah, some of the DW releases have been pack with great extra's, the commentaries are usually good.

It's not, but i've pre-ordered my copy from HMV. That is a) if they even have it in on the release day and b) it's not cheaper in Tesco.

Amazon had it at £14.97 for ages as a pre-order,
