88FILMS as announced their June releases are they are great and one of them is the first American pie in 4K UHD so June is going to be a good month for them.

Absolutely baffled by a couple of these recent announcements. Looks like they’re not above cashing in on any old shite. Nothing’s off limits going forward lol.IMG_0079.jpg

Is this the beginning of the end for 88Films? Some people say that the drop in quality for Arrow films began when they started releasing films like the Ace Ventura ones!!

I like Junes releases especially the Hong Kong films and as for the 2 Italian releases I'm glad they are getting a 4K UHD release so no I don't think this is the beginning of the end for 88films and they are not scrapping the bottom of the barrow and if people want them and they do then I'm glad and the 2 Italian films Severin will probably announce the same 2 films in the next 2 months.

I have no interest in any of June's releases.

With Beast in the Cellar, Shock Waves, Hannie Caulder, Gator and The Body Stealers there's plenty for me beforehand, plus Masters of the Universe to come too.

And of course, Absurd receives piss colored artwork...

Both that one and Anthropophagus looks terrible.

Yet another bunch of slipcases, that will be thrown into a box, in the closet.

Anyone who brought 88's copy of porky's revenge can't winge about them releasing American pie.

I'm guessing it's alot like some of their others it was part of a package deal they got from universal.
Ie they can release some cult 70s, 80s movie but it's part of a package that means they also have to release fast and furious.

I didn't get 88Films copy of 'Porky's Revenge' therefore I CAN winge about 'American Pie' !!

American Pie is a great film, I'm not sure it needs a 4k UHD though.

A blu-ray box set of all the films is something i'd have added to the five forthcoming releases i'd like to pick up.
