Some upcoming releases from Network:

The Nightcomers is hardly among my 10 best but it's far better than its reputation,but then again you can't usually beat a bit of Winner.Stephanie Beacham is definitely another huge plus,but Brando was disappointing.

Robbery is well worth a punt B_E. A British crime classic.

Deadlier than the Male is also good, however the dvd is better value as it also has Some Girls Do with it as a double header.

Shame there's still no sign of a release for Vampire Circus.

There are also releases for these three with Barbara Shelley, Hazel Court and Marisa Mell.

All of which i shall pick up at some stage.

It's nice to know we're now getting a lot of British Film releases before the US & Europe.I was really pleased when we got the dvd world premieres of THE HOUSE ON NIGHTMARE PARK, THE UNEARTHLY STRANGER & INVASION,all have probably not aired on UK Tv for at least 25 years.:thankingyou:

House and Invasion were on around the early 2000s, I know because I watched them :)

I knew Invasion was on at some point on Channel 4 but I missed the screening,but I had not seen House In Nightmare Park in a LONG while.

SALE!!!!

dVD'S £4.19

BLU'S £5.51

Everything that hasn't been released this year is on sale.

Shame the web site's crashing. :rolleyes: :lol:

Bad Timing and The Man Who Knew Too Much (the two I was after!) are still £9.81 unfortunately. :rolleyes:

The Monster Club is still £18 in HMV! :o

Despite this fact, I had a proper and intense trawl through tonight and ordered almost £60 worth of stuff. I do like these big sales, but they're often a little harsh on the wallet. ;)

Anyone into British crime movies should check out Robbery.

I've had the Studiocanal dvd for a few years now and have watched it a few times.

This blu is apparently 1.66:1 which is it's correct aspect ratio. The dvd is 1.33:1. It's definitely one i'll upgrade when i eventually go blu-ray.

Coming soon...

It's worth getting for the theme music alone.

ROBBERY is a classic.

Lets hope this gets rid of all the awful public domain versions.

A couple of newbies. - Harry Allan Towers and Michael Winner. :woot:

Quatermass (John Mills) TV Series coming from Network
 

If you go to the Network Home page:
http://networkonair.com/

Click on the pop up detonator - and you get what appears to be a Hi Def trailer for the classic 1970s series of Quatermass with John Mills. Looks as though a little restoration has gone on for what is almost certainly an upcoming BD release. Day One for me.

Network will be releasing Nigel Kneale's Quatermass series on Blu!

Link.

Network are overall releasing some fabulous titles on dvd/blu, are they open to suggestions?

They were a while ago. However once they got the ITV deal renewed they stopped.

Actually the suggestion part of that statement might well have been Odeon, not Network.

Bought! (and a better movie than Sahara too! )

My thin case collection expands.

Oooohhh, I need to get all mine together so I can make a pretty row like this.

Is that a nightmare before Christmas bookend Dem?

The Network DVD and Blu-Ray Release Thread
 

The only one I have is Slayground. Pretty pathetic. Not the film though (some would disagree!)

I haven't actually watched it yet.

Not happy with the pic actually. It looks a bit sloppy. I'll replace it with a better one tomorrow. :lol:

Sure is. :nod:

It's probably the worst movie adaptation of a Parker novel, but i still enjoyed it.

Thanks Stephen. This is all news to me.

Having looked up the novels the only ones i've seen as films are Point Blank and Payback. Both based on the novel The Hunter. Also Parker starring Jason Statham.

I had no idea Statham's Parker was the same character as the other films i've mentioned.

All three excellent films in my opinion too. :nod:

There have been quite a few movies based on the Parker novels.

Made in U.S.A. (based on The Jugger)
Point Blank (based on The Hunter)
Mise Ã* Sac [“Pillagedâ€�] (based on The Score)
The Split (based on The Seventh)
The Outfit (based on The Outfit)
Slayground (based on Slayground)
Payback (based on The Hunter)
Parker (based on Flashfire)

I need to seek out the rest there.

I thought you might have picked up the Sean Connery skyjack film Ransom.

That's a shame as I certainly have a few suggestions for them (British film).

Some personal Network recommendations (lesser known films) with some links to clips/trailers.
