Might look into to buying this, can't remember much about it but I know it was great and sleazy, this was the pic on the cover I had .

“As of today (4/29/20) I am not going to be shipping any international orders. I have been watching the situation closely over the last few weeks and after too many orders being stuck in limbo and not moving after shipment, I will be holding all orders until the world gets back to normal.

I am still accepting international orders but please take notice that the packages will not ship for some time. Possibly months. I will hold your items here for you until it is safer to ship without massive delays.

This is an unfortunate situation we are all in but it's something I feel needs to be done. Your items are safer here than they will be sitting in a USPS facility in Miami (which is where most of the orders go).

If you currently have an order out there in the USPS system please be patient. This mail does not seem to be moving right now. There is nothing I can do about it on this end. If you message me about the order, you will get the same message each time. Be patient.”

Thank you

'Impulse' (1974) - Coming from Grindhouse Releasing

[Susan Foreman]

"So here is what's going on at Grindhouse Video.... Yesterday Paypal froze our account. This meant we could not buy shipping labels. Almost nothing went out yesterday. Earlier today I finally was able to get them to release the hold. We are shipping again but the website will remain closed until I can find another payment processor. I refuse to give Paypal another dime.

We will keep shipping Arrow orders out and having the store closed will hopefully help up get a lot more orders shipped than normal. Please be patient with us as we try to get all the Easter Carnage Sale orders out. We still have over 2000 order to ship but we are able to get about 1200-1500 out each week."

'The Beyond: The Composers Cut' (1980) - 4K UHD coming soon from Grindhouse Releasing

Apparently...

"Grindhouse Releasing has teamed with legendary composer Fabio Frizzi to present a brand-new version of The Beyond, director Lucio Fulci’s 1981 horror masterpiece starring Catriona MacColl, David Warbeck and Cinzia Monreale.

Premiering this fall in theatrical release from Grindhouse, The Beyond: The Composer’s Cut features Fabio Frizzi’s new score for The Beyond with a brand-new 4K presentation of The Beyond newly scanned from the original camera negatives.

The Beyond: The Composer’s Cut will premiere in October with a nationwide release in November at the Alamo Drafthouse and other theaters across the US.

“Fulci fans will definitely want to see this on the big screen for the maximum impact,” said Grindhouse Releasing co-founder Bob Murawski. “It’s the best the movie has ever looked and a whole new experience in terror with Fabio’s brilliant new score!”"

Presumably a physical release will follow the cinema screenings
