I'm really tempted to go pick up Troll but I'm going on Holiday in 2 weeks and shouldn't be spending money... I'll just wait until I get back.
They do line up i think. They just aren't stacked quite right if you enlarge the photo.

Yeah they do line up, just the way I had them sitting I was going to get Monkey Shines. But i’ll wait until next payday, as Night Of The Creeps is out next week.

Those 80's classics look very nice together.



Never seen The Sand Pebbles. Have you or was it a blind buy?


I’m more concerned that they had to make The Blues Brothers spine different. I wonder if Universal made them put the logo at the bottom.

Years since I saw The Sand Pebbles, and i’ve been meaning to pick it up for a while now, and since there were no other retro classics that wanted, neededs something else for the 5 for £30.

Picked up my copy from HMV today.
Superb looking set.
The repro lobby cards are double sided as well which was a surprise.
The poster looks bloody awesome.

Watching this tonight and as many extras as possible.

Picked this up too! Amazing set!

Was going to get Monkey Shines & Troll but no Troll in my local hmv!
Will wait until next week & get night of the creeps with it instead! So many amazing releases this oct/nov!

Some recent acquisitions.

Really loved watching the Suzuki films in the Vol 2 boxset. This is is how I would put the films I have seen of his so far in order of enjoyment. Still need to check out Tokyo Knights and Smashing The O-line.

1. Branded To Kill
2. Eight Hours of Terror
3. Youth of The Beast
4. Detective Burea 2-3: Go to Hell Bastards!
5. The Man With a Shotgun
6. The Sleeping Beast Within - still a very good film.

Also watched You Were Never Really Here last night, amazing! 10/10.

The Reptile came with a slipcover but the stickers rather annoyingly left a sticky mark on it when I tried to take them off.

Looking forward to checking out The Pyjama Girl Case since Ray Milland is in it but heard mixed opinions about the film overall.

Had to grab Salvador and Witness, two amazing films! Interesting doc about Salvador I hadn't seen before too on the Eureka disc that was well worth a watch.


Not sure if I should grab the Vol.1 Suzuki boxset as it is quite expensive now and I am not sure if I would enjoy his musical/youth movies, that style of film doesn't really appeal to me but then, on the other hand, I have liked all of his films so far!

Any advice welcomed!

Apart from one film they’re still based around crime, although juvenile delinquency rather than yakuza. I enjoyed every one of them! We’re not talking full on musicals either. Just a number or two featuring a current pop star of the time as many 50s/60s Nikkatsu films do.
