A romantic drama would be better than Die of Boredom Marianne.

Which it certainly isn't!

One of Britain's finest hours in exploitation!

Great interview with Director Birkinshaw in the below book.

(Also a must for those who like their BFI Ghost Stories for Xmas examined in depth one by one!)

Yep, it is a great little film, and a nice alternative to Hammer, Amicus etc for those interested in 70s British horror/exploitation.

Final Cut just posted this on their fb page.

TALES FROM THE CRYPT / VAULT OF HORROR

Double Pack Blu Ray

Release Date 31/10/16

Two Amicus classics in one boxset.

Tales from the Crypt

Five strangers go with a tourist group to view old caves. Separated from the main group, they find themselves in a room with the mysterious Crypt Keeper, who details how each of the strangers will die. And All Through the House- After Joanne Clayton (Joan Collins) kills her husband on Christmas Eve, she prepares to hide his body but hears a radio announcement stating that a homicidal maniac (Oliver MacGreevy) is on the loose. Reflection of Death- Carl Maitland (Ian Hendry) abandons his family to be with Susan Blake (Angela Grant). After they drive off together, they are involved in a car accident. He wakes up in the wrecked car and attempts to hitchhike home but, no one will stop for him. Poetic Justice- Edward Elliott (David Markham) and his son James (Robin Phillips) are a snobbish pair who resent their neighbour, retired garbage man Arthur Grymsdyke (Peter Cushing) who owns a number of animals and entertains children at his house. Wish You Were Here- Businessman Ralph Jason (Richard Greene) is close to financial ruin. His wife Enid (Barbara Murray) discovers a Chinese figurine and wishes for a fortune. Blind Alleys- Major William Rogers (Nigel Patrick), the new director of a home for the blind, makes drastic financial cuts, reducing heat and rationing food for the residents, while he lives in luxury with Shane, his Belgian Malinois.

Special Features

Tales from the Amicus Crypt A new 36-minute documentary featuring Reece Shearsmith, Jonathan Rigby, Steve Chibnall and others.

Vault of Horror

Five unsuspecting hotel guests step into an elevator, which leads them into an underground vault. Trapped with no way out, each guest shares a gruesome tale of an encounter with death. But as the stories unfold, the men begin to suspect that their presence in the vault is no coincidence, and that the only way out…is death.

Eureka Entertainment to release KES, Ken Loach’s quintessential portrait of working-class Northern England and his most beloved and influential film, as part of the Masters of Cinema Series in a definitive Blu-ray special edition on 7 November 2016.

One of the most beloved and iconic British films of all time (voted in the top 10 of all time by the British Film Institute), Ken Loach’s breakthrough cinematic feature Kes is a cornerstone of naturalistic filmmaking whose influence is felt up to the present day.

Portraying with remarkable detail and empathy the day-to-day existence of a working-class 15-year-old boy in Barnsley (an unforgettable performance by David Bradley), and the profound change that the rearing of a kestrel brings to his otherwise troubled home life, Kes has enchanted generations of viewers since its release.

A rich, gently poetic work, filled with Loach’s trademark respect for his characters and astonishing skill at eliciting performances, The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present the film in a definitive Blu-ray special edition.



Available to order from:
Amazon http://amzn.to/2aKV3rb

SPECIAL FEATURES including:
  • Beautiful high-definition restoration, supervised by Ken Loach and director of photography Chris Menges
  • Uncompressed PCM audio
  • Original British soundtrack and international, partially dubbed soundtrack
  • Original theatrical trailer
  • New and archival interviews with cast and crew
  • A booklet featuring new writing on the film and archival material
