Apparently 'Maniac' is #50 in the slasher series!

A Candle for the Devil as well. Nice.

The Odeon dvd looked really poor when it was first released.

88 are also releasing Ladies Who Do.

Quite a bizarre one for them. A black and white British comedy from the sixties featuring Jon Pertwee and Robert Morley. Must be part of a job lot from Screenbound.

Wonder if Ebola Syndrome has been submitted to the BBFC yet and will it suffer like Gestapo's Last Orgy?

Definitely interested in Vigilante and interested in the extras for Cannibal Holocaust, I know there's a Commentary.

This looks like a strong line up

'Cannibal Holocaust' (1980) - 4K UHD [Blu-ray] [Region A & B & C] pre-order from Amazon UK - £25:00

Release date: November 28

"Primitive savagery meets the brutality of the modern world in Ruggero Deodato s timeless slice of visceral horror - Cannibal Holocaust, a film so violent and depraved that the director was charged with killing his own cast! Anthropologist Harold Munroe is hellbound as he travels into the green inferno of South America s rainforest in an attempt to find a documentary crew lost months before. Instead of survivors he discovers a world of cannibalistic excess beyond his wildest imaginings but when he returns home and screens the footage left behind by the eviscerated filmmakers, chaos erupts as the screen is filled with some of most disturbing images ever committed to celluloid. The ultimate video nasty is now presented as never experienced before -remastered in 4K from original sources"

More info to be announced

'Maniac' (1980) - Blu-ray pre-order available from Amazon UK - £20:00

Release date: October 24

" Following the disturbing story of blue-collar serial killer Frank (Joe Spinell), William Lustig’s violent slasher movie has become a cult classic in the ranks of the horror film fandom. In a plot which weaves in elements of Peeping Tom and Taxi Driver this early 80s horror fully delivers both a chilling character study and a gory exploitation piece. Dark, grimy and oppressively claustrophobic Maniac remains a firm favourite and an unmissable shocker. Presented here fully uncut for the first time ever from a stunning new 4K Restoration"

More info to be announced

'The Iceman Cometh' [aka 'The Time Warriors'] (1980) - Deluxe Collector's Edition blu-ray pre-order available from Amazon UK - £25:00

Release date: November 14

"From Golden Harvest, the legendary Hong Kong studio which had previously delivered classic Bruce Lee flicks The Big Boss, Fist of Fury and Enter the Dragon comes the fast-paced martial arts fantasy The Iceman Cometh. When 16th-century Ming guard Fong Sau-ching (Yuen Baio) sets out to capture vicious rapist Feng San (Yuen Wah) both men end up falling into a glacier to be frozen in time. Thawed out by scientists over 300 years later, the confused guard must learn to cope with the modern world and continue in his quest to vanquish his opponent. Fast, furious and fabulously entertaining, The Iceman Cometh rocks with time travelling Kung Fu vibes."

Release date: November 14

"When Factory Worker Eddie’s wife is attacked and his young son is killed by a violent criminal street gang, he turns to the legal channels in the hope that justice will be served. However, he soon learns that the system is corrupt and to get the revenge he seeks he must join an underground vigilante group. Bought to us by Maniac director William Lustig and starring Fred Williamson (The Godfather of Harlem, From Dusk till Dawn) and Robert Forster (Jackie Brown), Vigilante packs a powerful punch."
