Dick Tracy Meets Gruesome (1947, John Rawlins) Starring Ralph Byrd and Boris Karloff. . As to the PQ, and this is based on a showing on a plasma tv, a smidge speckly at the very beginning, and is a tad soft in places, as with most 23rd Cent releases I'd say it's a port of the official(?) release but haven't seen that so can't really comment.....Film itself a total hoot, what with people rushing around, "homocide" (that's how they pronounce it!!), and the hero being fooled by someone turning off the lights at one point, will try and watch the 2nd Byrd film tonight!! ("Dick Tracy's Dilemma", also JR 1947!)

Followed this with Sherlock Holmes Faces Death (1943, Roy William Neil)

From the Optimum box set, the print was nice and clean looking (borrowed this from mate....prised from his cold dead hands more like cough...AAAnyhow....quite a creepy wee story really, based on The Musgrave Ritual, had the slightest whiff of Lovecraft at the beginning, but this dissipated into a more standard SH adventure, what with the sleuth pulling his usual stunts to achieve his aims. Ends with the most amazing speech since The Great Dictator!! Recommended.

Ended the night with Buried Alive (1990, Gerard Kikione)
Ostensibly based on an Edgar Allan Poe story but brought to you by Harry Allen Towers, this rather quaint film has some "shock" sequences, a hackneyed plot, and Donald Pleasance in a wig. I loved it....but felt that Jess could have made more of the material at hand. P Mueller & Lina in the pivotal roles ahem and a bit more sleaze. Ho hum.

Obviously the OP hasn't bothered to repost.

Really don't get it, why on some products they have free shipping and on others it's got that crazy shipping cost!
Might be coming from US then.....
