ABSURD has been passed uncut by the BBFC :cool:

Sorry, but it was mentioned on the previous page

Oops! :headache:

My order of hex is at the warehouse awaiting packing, wonder if it will turn up this weekend

Doubt it. It doesn't say they have any copies available yet. They only have titles in stock when it says how many are available.

Kind Regards,

88 Films Ltd

but is strange as its not out till the end of the month, maybe this is how 88 do stuff order is at "warehouse" until they get stock

Yeah, everyone gets that soon after they place an order. Just means the warehouse has your order details. I got the same ones an hour after ordering River Of Death & Friday Foster yesterday. They did say 3 copies of Foster availble early yesterday, but by the time I orderd it, they were gone.

Didn't 88 announce a bunch of sword and sorcery films ages ago?

Ator the Fighting Eagle for one?

What happened to them?

Excited about the Shaw Brothers films...personally I hope they release loads of Shaw horror and exploitation titles. Some of the better wuxia titles would be nice as well.

Interesting that Hex is their first release...wasn't expecting that.
Was thinking it would be Human lanterns or Boxer's Omen. :)
All good though and already putting some money aside.

Cool that they seem to have reversible covers with the original artwork.

Insightful review of Hex:

Looking good.

Hex is only £8.99 on pre-order at Amazon at the moment.

I already pre-ordered,expected Hex to be less popular because it's lesser known than for instance Five Element Ninjas or Black Magic.

Prozzie
 

Has the latest Slasher 'Classic' been delayed?

No idea. What's it supposed to be?

Prozzie aka Olivia

That's being released in December.

Not sure when it was originally supposed to be released.

Just checked Facebook page - put back until 12th December.

I think the next two have been put back to December for additional restoration work and extra features:

It's only been put back a week. HMV have it's release date as Dec 5th.

It was supposed to come out yesterday!

Ha,ha, really?

Wonder when it was put back? It wasn't down as yesterday a couple of weeks ago when i was checking HMV for preorders.

HMV are better at doing release date changes, Amazon (where I check) is shit, they wait until after the date has passed and then update it usually after listing it as out of stock :lol:

Yes apparently it's due for dispatch in in the next couple of weeks according to Amazon.

Don't forget that if you opted for the Slasher perk during the Indiegogo campaign you'll be receiving Prozzie, The First Power and probably The Intruder as part of the five disc pledge.

Watched ROD the other night.....great pic quality.The actual film is a bit of a slog though!

The 88 Films Thread
 

Yeah, it's not the best Dudikoff, but any is better than none. I know 88 would love to release Avenging Force, but apparently it wasn't available.

Apparently 'Hex' is in stock, and ready to start shipping

I've never seen Hex but I'm looking forward to it arriving!

Same here, on both counts.

The Kino disc looks amazing.
AF is more like the entertaining Canon tripe we all know and love!

ROD tries to take too many elements from other films and never quite welds together......

Hex is still 8.99 on Amazon (pre-order).

Most (if not all) of 88's discs go for £8.99 on release day at Amazon and HMV.

Then they rise in price a fortnight later as with BFI, 101, Arrow etc.

Definitely saves to preorder these things.

With 88, definitely. With Arrow I just wait for their sales.

I don't buy enough Arrow sadly.

There's a couple of slasher dual plays i'd like but they have never been in sales yet. The last sale was the same old same old in my eyes.

They have a release date cut-off in their sales whereby they'll include some new titles every time (usually at a £9.99 price point whilst older titles will usually go for £7.99 or £8.99) depending on when they were released. Therefore, if the new titles they've included since the last sale don't interest you it can look very samey... I didn't buy anything from their last sale for instance (although I did pre-order a couple of things to take advantage of the double reward points).

I use the wish-list function on their site too, so whenever they have a sale I just look at my wish-list to see which titles have been reduced. It saves trawling through a load of titles that I either already own or have no interest in.

That's a really good idea – I may do that with the ones I want to cut down on browsing when the next sale rolls around.

Likewise. Been wishing Network would introduce a wishlist because come sales there catalogue is much harder to keep track off.

I've created an Amazon wishlist just for Network, so it's just a cut and paste with the titles to me.

Although i do love browsing through the full lists...might have missed something. ;)

I keep popping films names into the Network thread here in the hopes I'll see them come the next Network sale. A wishlist function would be very handy indeed.

I didn't actually notice the one on Arrow's site before, but I will use it, a couple of titles I keep missing. I just recently noticed I don't have The Honeymoon Killers in my collection. I could swear I bought it, but can't find it, nor any record of me buying it. Arrow generally has a sale this month too, so hopefully I'll plug that gap.
