I think they might have changed their minds now, both sides on One Dark Night has the Vault logo.

One Dark Night is awful...until the last half hour... then it's quite brilliant.

Not sure why it's an 18 rating. It's usually a PG. Must be trailers for other films perhaps.

Already sold the BU disc!

In this instance i definitely prefer the dvd artwork to the blu.

I've had shipping confirmation email for The Long Hair of Death, Body Puzzle and Just Before Dawn.

Hello to all! I am new here and I'm from Italy

Do you know which one of these Blu Ray has forced subs and which ones not?

1) Body Puzzle/Mysteria
2) The long hair of death
3) Watch me when I kill/Il gatto dagli occhi di giada
4) The perfume of the lady in black/Il profumo della signora in nero
5) La bestia uccide a sangue freddo/Cold blooded beast
6) Ironmaster/La guerra del ferro - Vindicator

As I wouldn't like to buy those with forced ones. Unfortunately it's not easy to get such informations

thanx

As far as I know none of the 88 Films BDs have forced subs, the ones I have I can switch off with my remote.

exactly what i think, all the ones i have dont have forced subs, so i cant see later releases having them

was thinking of getting these from there site

HIDE AND GO SHRIEK
THE LONG HAIR OF DEATH

and Mountaintop Motel Massacre which is £15 cheaper on DVD!

edit

a lot of the DVD versions are only £5, strangely im tempted st this price to get them on DVD rather than BLU, as some of the slasher collection are pretty poor quality on blu and cant see their being a big diffence

As far as I know these BR have forced subs for the italian audio track:

1) Night train murders
2) Anthropophagous (first edition)
3) A blade in the dark
4) Massacre in dinosaur valley
5) The bloodstained shadow
6) Live like a cop, die like a man

I don't have these 6 above, but it was confirmed by people who bought them that subs are forced.

There is an active topic on an italian forum and the titles I asked in my first topic are the only ones not checked checked yet.

As far as I can see, none of the 88 Films' discs have forced subtitles because, regardless of which language track you have on, the subtitles can be turned off with the remote control.

Hopefully this is the reverse!

I just checked A Blade in the Dark and Night Train Murders, and it's true, they've been authored in a way that the 2 audio streams are as separate features so you can't switch between the two, and when you select Italian you can't turn the subtitles off. I'm pretty sure that they no longer do this. I don't have time to check other discs though.

None of those listed above have come out yet have they? So no-one will know for sure until they do.

That's interesting. I suppose the misunderstanding is because I have never tried to turn off the English subtitles when watching with the Italian audio; as I don't speak Italian, it's not something I have considered doing.

Naughty Nosferatu giving wrong information. :lol:

It's what happens when you assume!

Dont miss the naked truth about naughty Nos only in the news of the world tomorrow

Recieved the latest 4 88 releases today. Dawn,perfume,puzzle and hair.


Looking forward to them, 3 are upgrades from dvd blu in case of Dawn, hair is completely new to me.

Long Hair, Puzzle and Dawn arrived with me today as well, now which one do I view first as I've never seen Long Hair, vaguely remember Dawn and have the Raro dvd of Puzzle which I watched on receiving it years ago...

I also received the three newest releases, none of which I have seen but am really looking forward to watching over the next few days, twice if you include the commentary on Just Before Dawn.

"A #tiny announcement for Friday!!

Prolific B-movie maverick Bill Rebane (THE GIANT SPIDER INVASION) opted for some contemporary 'real world' horror carnage and caught wind of the slice and dice craze with his classic BLOOD HARVEST (1987). Unleashed at a time when the slasher movie was awash with sequels, BLOOD HARVEST stood out thanks to a lunatic performance from Tiny Tim (the legendary American television personality who offers up a creepy and instantly-cult sing-song scene as well). Featuring a masked man on the rampage, twists and turns that will keep you glued to the gore and a final reel that packs in plenty of sadism and shocks, BLOOD HARVEST gets its HD worldwide premiere from the celluloid plasma-addicts at 88 Films!!!

The harvest has begun... and the pre-orders will be live soon!

Special features tbc"

Never heard of it.

Me neither, but that's been the case with quite a few from the Slasher, Italian, and (all of) the Asia collections. I don't think I've been disappointed by any of the releases (there have been some which are second, third or fourth tier films, so I knew what I was getting) and, because I like to broaden my horizons, will buy this when it's available.

Neither but I'm sold on both artworks, Tiny Tim, and clowns

I've heard of it, pretty sure it's in one of my slasher books, but I've never seen it

Some classic when no one's ever heard of it. :lol:

They should really drop the word classics from the range title. :pound:

NO doubt it's going to be a forthcoming 'BIG ANNOUNCEMENT' from 88Films regarding a new sub-label

In addition to:

• 88 Vault
• 88 Asia
• Slashers Collection
• Italian Collection
• Ted V. Mikels Collection
• Grindhouse Collection
• Cult Cinema Collection

we will get the 'I-saw-this-once-on-VHS-back-in-the-80's,-but-no-one-else-has-ever-heard-of-it,-but-it's-a-really-good-film' collection

they should be marketing this to the hipsters "it's not mainstream so it's good"

I don't think it really matters if nobody has heard of it, there's plenty of people who'll buy anything they put out regardless of what it is :lol:

Don't know what you mean. https://www.cult-labs.com/forums/ava...ine=1293888045

Anyone recognize it now?

Nope.

Killjoy 5: Blood Harvest is it's US title. ;)

It was released on the shitty Screen Entertainment label and was heavily cut on vhs.

It was one of those scrape the barrel labels which usually sat on the bottom shelf or arse-end of a discount basket in every Woolworths in Scotland.

But,hey-it was a revolution and Shameless,Arrow and 88 owe all their success to them as they released the sellthru with double sided artwork!!!

I think the only label prior to this to do this was VTC.

88 Has actually used both sides of the vhs tape!:clap:

And anyway,if anyone can sit through Killjoy and it's sequels,then this will be a walk in the park.:lol:

blood harvest
 

the whole film is on youtube and is nothing special

Someone mention my name? ;)

Yeah I reckon someone's stuck it in a 2 for 1 deal,or similar with the Toolbox Murders! :lol:

I really like it but I am a big Tiny Tim fan. It is an average rural slasher at best otherwise. I have a US release, can't remember the label, that has some nice Tiny Tim extras.

Tiny Tim?

What the dickens are you on about?
