I believe arrowfan resides in canada.

Just gone mental on Criterion blurays

Someone asked on their Facebook page, and they replied saying it was on for the duration of December. I certainly hope so, as I get paid just before Christmas.

Oh dammit! I didn't even know there was a Blu of The Lady Vanishes!

Will the expenditure never end?

I emailed them this afternoon asking how long it was on for and when they would be shipping the ZFE LE's, just checked and I'm yet to get a reply, they must be busy sending out all the LE's :coolblue:

Amazon.com have a lot of therm for $17.99 which is a pretty good price

DAMN:

CURSE YOU ALL TO HELL

CURSE YOU ALCOHOL

CURSE YOU CREDIT CARD

CURSE YOU ARROW FILMS CHEAPO SALE

In addition to the above, I have just ordered:

Day of the dead - duel thing Blu-Ray and DVD triple disc
Don't go in the house
Bare behind bars
The devil's kiss
Class of nuke-em high - duel thing Blu-Ray and DVD

Look someone save me

Please say that you are going to get me the 'Battle Royale' triple disc, or I am going to have to get it myself in a few weeks time!

What's the deal with The Dark Knight Trilogy set? Looks like all the disc content is there but what's this book? I know you can get this book in hardback and it's quite a big size; is this the same book but scaled down to fit in the boxset?

Its a sampler of it, shrank down to BD size as well, kind of like the Bladerunner one

Ah right, that makes sense. Thanks for that!

I keep meaning to buy Charade and Rashomon. Great purchases.

How did you get these from HMV?

He ain't from the UK!

I'm so annoyed about the disappearance of these sets.

I succumbed to some of the low prices at the Arrow Films website, so ordered:

Arrow Academy: Il Generale Della Rovere
Arrow Academy: The Tin Drum
Arrow Academy: The Conformist
Arrow Video: Black Sunday / The Mask of Satan / I Vampiri [Limited Edition Slipbox]
Arrow Video: Lisa and the Devil / The House of Exorcism [Limited Edition Slipbox]

I've ordered these from the Arrow Films website:

Arrow Academy: The Tin Drum
Arrow Academy: The Conformist
Arrow Video: Black Sunday / The Mask of Satan / I Vampiri [Limited Edition Slipbox]
Arrow Video: Lisa and the Devil / The House of Exorcism [Limited Edition Slipbox]

I'm tempted by these at those prices too but I've spent so much on Criterions and Arrow stuff the last few days I'd better curb my spending!

Yeah its a sampler of the book.

Just POd lisa and the devil from amazon.

Called the shop I picked up the 2 popflix giallo sets and asked if they had the third Blood Red Nights collection. They couldn't find it in the system so I dropped over just to check and.....

Now I have the complete collection of the three Giallo sets put out , thankfully I've been able to snag these before the are non-existent.

Not a dvd/bd but got this recently (completely slipped my mind)...I now finally have a complete collection until the early nineties,so all the really interesting stuff. ;)

I believe the first issue I bought at my local newsagent was number 56.

It looks great for it's age and I got it for a very reasonable price.

However...the poster that came with it seems to have been put on a wall and got a bit wet at some point (or did someone do the naughty with big G?)...it's a bit wrinkled and has some slight water damage.

So the seller (top bloke who didn't remember anything about it btw) send me this to make up for it:

Progeny - Millennium Series (1998) (Sterling)

I have a few other Sterling dvd's so this will join them in my collection. :)
Film Aficionado bdc collection - Sterling

With all the christmas shopping done and dusted, i splashed a little cash and ordered a few things....

METRO
THE GOLDEN CHILD
TED (Blu)
BEVERLY HILLS COP 1-3
JOHNNY HANDSOME
8 MILLION WAYS TO DIE
DOUBLE IMPACT
MAN ON FIRE (1987) Scott Glenn Version
THE EMERALD FOREST

Pre-orders
THE DARK KNIGHT RISES - blu
THE EXPENDABLES 2 - blu
LOOPER - Blu
DREDD - blu

Thought that was Prophecy for a second, rather similar covers. Always wanted to see Prophecy.

And is that the Godzilla poster that's in Luigi Cozzi's Profondo Rosso shop? I think I might have seen it in the tour on the Arrow Deep Red disc.

Blade Runner (Warners, Blu)... What to say that hasn't already been said about Ridley Scott's masterpiece - it may well be the Greatest Science Fiction Film (it's only competition would be 2001), and a movie that pays out handsomely with each viewing. Only superlatives will suffice - it's philisophically rich, visually spectacular, brilliantly written and scored and for everyone who worked on the film, surely their finest hour. Syd Mead's futurism aside, Blade Runner feels like a nod to the great film noirs of the fifties - sixty years ago this could easily have been made with Humphrey Bogart playing a frazzled G-man charged with tracking down some Communists trying to infalltrate American soceity. It's a testament to the film that the debate about Deckard's humanity will go on and on, but for this viewer, I never felt he was a replicant...

Progeny is a good film film Bdc.

Pretty grim with some nice gloopy effects.

Have a look here:
Midnight Cinephile: A look back at Fangoria Issue #1

Seems to be a solid Yuzna (directing)/Gordon (story) collaboration. :thumb:

Grabbed my first order from the Arrow site. Just picked up a few to fill in my Argento collection:

Huge fan of Argento. I know the flaws in the films but thank you Arrow for putting out such beautiful packages. Stendahl is a very personal favorite of mine. And getting them all for just 16 pounds was the icing on the cake.

Out to buy some xmaas cards & food shopping in a few hours...however, there's a Computer Exchange & a HMV nearby.....who wants to be I come back with some dvd's to add to my stack!:loco:

...which will make no sense as I have too much to watch! Lol!

According to Paul M Sammon in his book Future Noir, Deckard was supposed to wear a Fedora to further identify him with classic noir protagonists. However, Harrison Ford, having just made Raiders of the Lost Ark, refused as he didn't want to wear the same style hat in two films running.

Ah that's a great story (and a great book). Watching the film again, I kept on thinking of Se7en. David Fincher must have had Blade Runner in mind when making the film. I could list favourite moments all day but one scene I really love is the moment when Roy Batty kills Tyrel - that astonishing look on Rutgar Hauer's face, the rage of knowing his fate is sealed, the realization that his mission has ended in failure. Extraordinary moment...

Picked up The Dark Knight Rises steelbook along with three of the more recent Hellraiser movies,Rec Genesis,The original The Thing from the 50's and two documentaries and The Hunter on dvd.

Just bought this for £12 :)

I ordered it from Zavvi yesterday for £11.95, which is a really good price.

Thats where I got it from too. :cool:

Only commie, pink-o scum would not enjoy my latest buy: RED DAWN on Blu-ray.

I must be commie, pink-o-scum then

Either commie, pinko scum or those who don't like Reaganite propaganda passing itself off as popular entertainment!

Go Wolverines!

I think I've been diagnosed as a commie.

I thought I would enjoy Red Dawn, I thought I would find it amusing in the same way I love Rocky IV but I just can't sit through it, I think the furthest I've made it is twenty minutes.

I loved Red Dawn when I watched it a while back! Admittedly, I was on (completely legal) drugs at the time.

This weeks arrivals.
