Yeah that was me. Confusing it for Hornet's Nest.

Just saw that via email.

It's not the greatest film but i like it. Watched it loads of times during Halloween marathons. A definite purchase for me.

Lovely Linda *sigh*

It's actually missing the commentary from Linda Blair and Irwin Yablans. That's poor. Another i'll have to keep the dvd for.

It's one I'm upgrading to, cheesy as fcuk but one I enjoy

I bought the DVD to watch 2 Halloweens ago and still haven't, I will probably buy this Blu though and watch it this year!

It looks like a direct port of the Scream Factory disc which does have the comm track so it might have just been missed off the blurb :)

I haven't seen Hell Night in about 30 years. The only thing I remember about it was Linda Blairs tight fitting corset.

That is certainly the best part of the film.

mmm Linda Blair... tight fitting corset... well, that's the fence sitting over with ;)

Hell Night is a lot of fun day one buy for me.

****,I must be losing it!

I could've SWORE I owned this on Arrow....must be the Scream Factory disc....Did Arrow release it? :madgrin:

I wonder if you are confusing it with Happy Hell Night which 88 released.

No....
Seen Hell Night on numerous occassions.

Could've swore Arrow released it just before Xmas a few years back.
Must've been the Scream Factory disc I bought.....

Bye bye to that too then!:happy:

I absolutely love Hell Night and will get pre-ordering. My spanish blu isnt much cop and needs replacing anyway.

Great work by 101, they're turning out some nifty releases.

Good news, the commentary track is included they just forgot to put it on the listings;

THE INITIATION :doh::loco:

The 101 blu of Silent Night Deadly Night has two versions.

DISC ONE: Theatrical Version: 4K scan of the original camera negative

DISC TWO: Extended Unrated Version: 4K scan of the original camera negative with standard definition inserts

To anyone who has the disc. Is disc one the same as Arrow released on dvd years back or is it disc two?

Basically if it's disc two and all the kills are in standard definition then i'll simply stick to the Arrow dvd. However if the new inserts are over and above what we saw on Arrows release then that's pretty cool.

So i take it nobody has the 101 release of this?

.................................

Ordered Hell Night today. Amazon have it up at £15.99 currently. It's £1 cheaper. Every little helps.

I do have the boxset but not watched it yet.

Nice buy with Hell Night :woot::pop2:

Sorry I never saw this, I do have it, it's a port of the scream factory disc, all of the special features and commentary track etc.. But yes, the extended version has VHS inserts, the original negative for the cut bits have been lost.

What i'm trying to get at is which of the versions was previously released by Arrow on dvd?

I'm not entirely sure that how you worded the question :lol:
However, according to DVD Compare, Arrow released the unrated cut with the SD inserts.

R2 United Kingdom- Arrow Films - No Cuts - Unrated Version (81:21 PAL)

So basically disc one of the 101 Films release is shorn of all the best bits ie - the graphic violence and therefore worthless?

And the violence is still standard edition rather than HD so there's no point upgrading whatsoever.

Yeah, unless you're interested in the multiple special features which are all produced by Shout Factory, they're very good. Also the actual film aside from the inserts has been remastered and looks great.

I'd personally prefer the bluray over the DVD as it's a great set, but if you're in two minds you will be able to get it discounted in the future.

It was following viewing Going to Pieces the other day again. There's a few minutes spent on the film and it's furore so i thought a nice hd print would be good to watch this Christmas but if all the best bits are still inserts it makes it a bit pointless as it would be even more jarring dropping from 4k to video quality than it would be from dvd to video.

Looked it up on Movie Censorship. It says Shout replaced whole scenes if there was an insert to be made not simply added the inserts.

I watched Top Sensation again last week. Good film but the inserted scenes were distracting. Maybe it's just me that thinks of them that way.

It's not just you no, and the next time I watch Silent Night I do plan on watching the Theatrical version as I don't think the trimmed effects shots are all that good to be honest, you can't see what happens most of the time anyway - I did find it distracting.

Regardless though, the 101 Films BD is really good, I bought the box set with part 2 to watch at Christmas last year :)

Have you seen Part 2? Is it any good?

Thinking about it you may have missed a comma or two out, and you have part 2 to watch this year after buying it last year.

No, I watched them both last year, I did mean that I bought the box with both films in it to watch last Christmas :p

Yeah, part 2 is rubbish haha, but entertaining.

I have part 3 in a set along with Slaughter High, Repossessed and My Best Friend is a Vampire and surprisingly (or not) it's easily the worst of the four films. Terrible in fact.

With part 2 being 'rubbish' and full of flashbacks, i might just buy 88's New Years Evil and forget new Xmas themed horror this year :lol:

88's Christmas Evil is a great release!

I've got that on dvd already. I'm not that big a fan of it to be honest. It's okay but not one i'd want to upgrade.

Now Don't Open Till Christmas is something else altogether. I'd love to upgrade that one.

I believe Mondo Macabro have put out a B.D of this. I still have their old DVD release somewhere.

I'm personally pretending like this isn't happening, but there is a summer sale on at 101

https://101-films-store.com/collections/sale

Just been there myself and ordered Pledge Night and Raw Force. :woot:

I was surprised to see them discounted so soon after release. The 'Black Label' ones don't seem to be in the offer though, I would have actually bought Tammy and the T Rex even though it's shite :lol:

Black Labe l ones only drop to a tenner which is still a fiver too much for Tammy and the TRex.

Both September's Black Label releases appeal to me.

101 Films presents Penelope Spheeris' searing drama Suburbia (1983), title 021 on the 101 Films Black Label. Starring real-life punks rather than trained actors, and featuring live performances from punk bands D.I., T.S.O.L. and the Vandals, Suburbia is an authentic and compassionate study of the Los Angeles punk rock scene in the early 1980s, and a bleak indictment of the American suburban experiment.

Evan and his younger brother leave their broken home in an attempt to escape their alcoholic mother. They fall in with "The Rejected" (aka T.R.), a group of punks who live as squatters in an abandoned shack by the side of the highway. With the T.R.s, the boys find a new family. But their new family will be tested when they become the target of "Citizens Against Crime," a group of unhappy suburbanites.

On the weekend of their high-school graduation, the two suburban outcasts head for Los Angeles and embark on a violent murder spree that shocks the nation.

I'm planning to order both of those as well, they've been on my radar for a while. Suburbia specifically since before DVD, not sure why I never picked it up on import.

I really want to se the live footage of TSOL in that film.
