I'm deadly serious btw Treb. ;)

Just got home to find this

Only ordered it Friday evening. Way to go Zavvi.

His management will have hundreds of those pics you received. It's doubtful he'll ever see the one you sent.

At least you had a reply and a nice signed photo.

That's very true. Another strange aspect to this is that the photo came with photos I sent of me and my collection which, along with the 8x10 and letter, had been sent to his management company in London, whereas the reply came from France, where he currently lives with his wife. (Angleterre was handwritten on the address label, and looks like his handwriting.)

I'm going to do the same with Linda Blair, Ellen Burstyn, William Peter Blatty and William Friedkin, hopefully receiving the 8x10 prints which can then be framed together.

I'd love to meet them all (Friedkin, Blatty, von Sydow, Blair, Burstyn) but it seems only Linda Blair goes to festivals/conventions and, as far as I can see, most of those are in the US.

Funny you should mention the Exorcist Nos, I'm currently writing a research report on the effectiveness of sound/music in Horror films for Uni, and one of my chosen films to discuss is The Exorcist, the other two being Suspiria and Hellraiser. I've just watched the documentaries included with the 2 disc BD, whilst reading Mark Kermode's book on the making of :)

N.B I'm also attempting to recreate the sound design from a scene from it too, which I will upload next year after I've handed it (and the scenes from Suspiria and Hellraiser) in to my personal tutor. Haven't decided which scene yet though !

In The Friedkin Connection, William Friedkin writes at length about choosing the music and creating sound effects (with such things as the cracked leather wallet for the head spin), so try and find it in the Uni library if you don't have a copy.

I've got all the info I need on the Exorcist, sadly my report is only allowed to be 3000 words long, I could've done more talking just about that one film, so I need to be concise if I'm to get in enough about the other films.
I'll add that book to my wish list though, so thanks for the (spinning) heads up :)

Thats a great addition to the very impressive collection you already have.

Gonna order that after Xmas :nod:

One delivery today form zoverstocks

Happy about the artwork they used for the reverse, and that they did an HD transfer of the director's cut.

Yeah, don't understand why 101 Films didn't do the same

Same here, didn't they even turn around and say there was no Hd master for the directors cut?

Think so, pretty sure somebody asked them on Facebook

I believe Scream Factory had to do it themselves.

Ain't arrived yet mate.:)

This Nekromantic release seems really popular. The reviews are pretty positive as far as the quality of the release goes. Not much being said about the film itself though! Lol. I was at the Glasgow CCA when Jörg Buttgereit was being interviewed for the special features. It's a crazy film, man! But is a bit more arty farty than I would normally invest in...

Somehow this release which I've been long awaiting slipped by me !.Now ordered from the VCI website despite complaints about 30 seconds or so of missing footage.I'm just glad anyone took a chance in releasing a half decent release (On blu-ray too !).There is no way the film will ever see an uncut release in the UK if anyone ever bothers ever submitting it anyway.

It's a superb release – the director's cut looks and sounds sublime.

Yep, I was sure Scream Factory did their own HD master.

Charity shop find.

My Network sale order arrived today:

:xmasbanana:

Edge Of Terror (Hollywood dvd).
Whilst not as flipping out there as Hired To Kill etc, this thriller....has a sequel which is a must, after I get my hands on The Zero Boys, which I remember being "offbeat" cough.

Was at a loss after so just rewatched Hired To Kill again. Almost put on nightmare At Noon, maybe tonight haha.

Got another 23rd Century title as well (with a spiffy green logo) Dilemma, Demi Moore's first film apparently (wasn't that Parasite?? ho hum). Up to their usual standard i.e. a VHS rip. ;)
