The 88 Films Thread

When they started I respected what they did but was never fond of the Full Moon stuff (sorry Stephen!) but their slasher, Troma and Italian releases are exactly what I want personally from a cult label

I asked James earlier today if Tromeo and Juliet was still on Track for release next month, but it looks like they're still working on it, and the release date might change. A little bummed, but at least I'll get my Full Moon fix next month.

Now THAT goes in right away for cover contender of the year!



I'm under no illusions,yeah the film is Z grade (hilariously entertaining) trash,but it's the artwork that makes it stand out from the crowd.



A lot of the so called nasties have been given the royal treatment both here and overseas,while SSEC (Not the Glesga venue!) has been given the Vipco/Blackhorse treatment here in the UK.....Criminal.



88 films....I TIP MY HAT TO YOU.

I think they will. It will probably be the sane art, just without the white border, allowing them to move to title down.

That's the last Troma release they have planned isn't it? Wonder if they'll release Nuke 'Em High 2 since Troma brought out a bluray not long ago

I know there was talk a while back about Sgt Kabukiman as well, but I don't know if it'll happen. I was thinking today of getting Troma's Nuke 'em High 2 disc, but I'd get it from 88 if they were going to release them.

The reverse is the same, just without the BBFC/88 Films logos.

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

I ordered Bloodstained Shadow and Dead of Winter direct.

Also ordered them seperately in case one is held up....bank holiday weekend next week you know....extra viewing time.

Yeah,well it is the original art.

Pales in comparison though with the awesome original art!

I need to move Trancers up the 'to watch' pile....

Same here, I'd rather wait for the 88 release. Will hold tight for a while just in case
