Cult Labs - What Have You Bought Recently?

Not a lot of difference picture wise - DVD Beaver says contrast is slightly better on the US release. Blue Underground is reissue of single disc Anchor Bay, so also has the documentary which Arrow doesn't. Limited 2 disc OOP Anchor Bay has the soundtrack as well. But if you're willing to forfeit the extras for the best audio - then Arrow is the one to go for, as that has the two English dubs (Cannes 2.0 & Redub 5.1) and the Italian Dub (2.0) with optional English subs.

So if you're not fussed about audio but like extras, go US. If you want the best of both worlds extras and movie wise, pick up both. If you really only care about the best current presentation of the movie, I'd say Arrow due to its minor picture differences, but significantly improved audio options.

Thanks Delirium - I can pick up the BU disc locally, on ebay, so will go for that one.

Les Diaboliques (Arrow Classics).
Persona
Faster Pussycat...Kill! Kill! (they had a bunch of Russ Meyer films in Head for £5, so I may pop in again after work)
The Devils (an ex-girlfriend has my old copy, rather than have to talk to her, I just bought it again).

Ah, who needs sandwiches when you have that cinematic feast to delve into!

Picked up Hausu and Gojira Criterions. Should be a good double feature.

Lucky to get signed copies! How did you manage that?
Im waiting for my JDATE blu. Should be here either tomorrow or Saturday.

I occasionally use Dark Delacies as they have guest signings and you can order via the internet if you can't attend the signing.
The prices are not the cheapest but the service is excellent.

In the past i have purchased signed copies of I Spit on your Grave, Hatchet 2, Killer Klowns From Outer Space and the documentery Screaming in High Heels.

My 247° F BD just arrived, probably check it out this afternoon at some point

EDIT: The price is back up to £9.99, we must have cleaned the Marketplace seller out of copies

Ordered Wednesday afternoon, arrived this morning. Arrow do impress me with their delivery times. Lovely looking set this, looking forward to my first viewing.

Just curious, did you preorder anything with it?

No just this. Would've preordered the Bava discs but I've got to watch my spending for a few weeks. Probably shouldn't have ordered this but the price was so good.

Oh thanks anyway. I ordered 9 things at the same time as this, 8 of which were preorders, and apparently Arrow are changing their policy with preorders and shipping combined orders.
