I'm guessing you saw it years ago, does it still stand up in 2013?

Although The Stone Tape suffers a bit from typical made for TV budget constraints, I rather liked it. It's pretty creepy in places, too.

Stone tape is great imo. Also worth tracking down children of the stones.

On a whim I bought The Blair Witch Project on blu yesterday, after seeing it relatively cheap in a used store. I love the film, but can you think of a film less deserving of the HD treatment? Haven't thrown it on yet, but I expect (transfer wise) little.

Warlock Moon (1975) (Shriek Show)



Btw no idea if this is a first or second press but will know soon enough I guess.

It turned out to be the faulty first pressing...if anyone has a second pressing for sale?

I think you might be surprised.

That said the best experience I had was watching a dodgy vhs cam version many years back (naughty I know) the grotty quality added something to the experience.

What was faulty about it?

"Chapter 11 is short: it skips ahead abruptly when Laurie is in bed and then all of a sudden she is up wandering around."

Media Blasters has more discs which were faulty it seems and of which they released corrected versions later.
Luckily the other ones I have seem to be the corrected versions.

Oh. So while annoying, it doesn't miss anything particularly significant?
