Powerhouse Films
 

A new British cult film distributor has sprung up to little (no) fanfare: Powerhouse Films.

They have a deal with Sony in the UK (finally someone who has managed to crack them!) and have some nice titles upcoming.

Webstore.

More upcoming films on their 'About' page.

Superb!
Will save those who already don't own the TT discs OTT shipping costs.

Like the '80's ZX Spectrum' type band at the top.....wonder Arrow aren't suing!:lol:
Maybe Fright Night is on the cards.....
Wish them all the luck in the world!:clap:

There's no add to basket option yet.
They're limited.So I want them! :nod:

I think Amazon and the like may be selling them too Reaps based on some of them having listings.

Ha,ha i was just looking at what was to come and it's all disappeared. Everything, each page is now product less. :lol:

****ing Treb must have got there first. :pound:

They must not have banked on the rabid curiosity of the cult film community and took all the listings down - luckily Reaps had the foresight to upload the image attachments.

Wish I'd copied & pasted that full list of upcoming titles. A couple of Noir on there though (Experiment in Terror and The Lady from Shanghai) as well as the phenomenal Bunny Lake is Missing.

Luckily, someone else did...

The first thing they need to do is get rid of that band at the top, and just have the Indicator logo instead. Second thing is, hopefully they just got UK rights and not Ireland too!

OTT shipping? Think Mr Reaper has been smoking the waccy-baccy. Anyone would think you never pay silly amounts regularly for stuff [emoji39] And the band sucks, just like Arrow's does. [emoji23]

In all seriousness though, looking forward to some of these, and they seem to rival (and better the TT Editions).

I saw this on bluray.com yesterday - very exciting indeed. I'm definitely in for Body Double. I already have Christine and I'm not going to double dip even though this artwork is decidedly better than the German Sony artwork :lol: I think the extras are the same.

The forthcoming stuff is more exciting. 10 Rillington Place is excellent, as is pretty much all of the films on the list.

For the record, I like the spectrum band across the top too :hide:

Yeah, I quite like it too - a bit of label identity. :nod:

You're all mad, I tell ya! Label identity be damned! :dance:

Poor Powerhouse films. I feel sorry for them already.

Not yet a single release on the shelves and already Stephens got them in his sights. :rambo:

:pound:

Just kidding with you Stephen.

[emoji23] I may have already asked them on Twitter if they'll have Irish ratings on the covers.

:lol:

When you say 'may' i think you just mean 'have'.

Agree with the Irish logo cueball! :happy:
However for those who opt for 'insured shipping' yes then it is OTT!

And I'm glad others like the band! :lol:

YEEEEEES! [emoji23]

I mean no bloody Irish logos.
This will depend on whether the TT discs go or not.......


LIMITED EDITION SPECTRUM HEADBAND WITH FIRST 300 ORDERS!


:loveeyes:

They replied. Licenced for the UK and Ireland, so you're out of luck.

sony
 

nice to see a new uk label, what horror films do sony own?

The Blob (1988), Christine (1983), Fright Night (1985), The Gorgon (1964), Night of the Living Dead (1990), Torture Garden (1967), The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll (1960) are some of the main ones.

titles
 

Good lord I''d love uk editions of fright night and the blob, twilight time in states released them and 10 rillington place and since rillington is getting a release they may be hope of the other 2 as well.

Apparently Powerhouse is run by ex-Sony employees so I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of overlap.

I'd love to see The Bride Wore Black and Leave Her to Heaven.

No reversible covers?;)

These look like nice editions, just put pre-orders in for Christine and Happy Birthday to Me on Amazon ... silly prices at the moment but they should come down!

I didn't ask. Don't want to piss them off before they've officially announced themselves. [emoji1]

I'm sure they've heard of you already.....:lol:

Powerhouse Films
 

I did ask another question earlier today.....if they would possibly be giving us reversible ratings free covers. I was very polite about it and apologised for bothering them again [emoji1]

I'll let you know what they say.

Good man!

They do know that if they don't reply,you'll send them an email every week for six years?

Not at all.

I heard back from them on Twitter. It's not good news i'm afraid.......

It's great news!

Wonder if they class you as other annoyances? :lol:

Try to help people by asking questions, and all you get are insults! [emoji23]

Stephen
 

For any cult movie label Stephen is classified as a hazard of the job, they turn on a red light bulb everytime he posts on their facebook pages. The graphics dept dream of new ways to annoy him ;)

Come on, you all have to admit covers look a gazillion times better without the UK
and Irish certificates on them. [emoji38]

Especially the Irish logo.
For once we are in total agreement Mr Wilson!

Some more artwork....
