The price point is the major issue (mainly due to the shipping cost). Unfortunately, money is finite, and there are loads of titles that I want to buy, so priorities have got to fall somewhere, and competitors who are releasing similar genre fare at lower prices are more likely to get my money.

No doubt it's difficult running an indie DVD label, but with wider scope to sell his product, I'm sure Bill could make a lot more money and price a little more competitively.

It's good to know that Bill doesn't include the value on the items he ships out, though.

I fully agree with you. Once I used to buy whatever Bill put out. I have a shit-ton of code red titles on my shelf. Since I lost my job I have not really bought many at all. To put it into perspective, for the cost of Evilspeak and Curse of the Blue lights, with postage thrown in, the price was around the same as what I paid for the Fernando di leo crime collection and the absolutely superb must buy Street Trash blu-ray (seriously its f*****g awesome) including postage. That's four movies on Blu-ray. I don't even know what he's going to charge for those blu-rays and my wallet is already bleeding from the thought of it. I'm having no luck at all finding work, none. So I might end up having to turn my little Amazon store into an actual business in order to get my ass off benefits which means the money situation isn't going to look any rosier anytime soon

INVASION OF THE BLOOD FARMERS

This dreadful, but oddly engaging horror Black comedy film from director Ed Adlum (SHRIEK OF THE MUTILATED) and co-writer Ed Kelleher deals with a cult of modern-day Druids on a farm in upstate New York. In order to keep their catatonic queen alive in her glass coffin, the cultists drain the blood from passersby with the aid of some cheap plastic tubing. The leader of the cult is a flamboyantly effeminate priest whose hilariously silly explanations of his beliefs provide most of the film's minimal entertainment value. Outlandish Paul Craig Jennings as Creaton lights up the insane film in this campy cult favorite. Co-produced by Jack Bravman (SNUFF, ZOMBIE NIGHTMARE)

• audio commentary with Ed Adlum

• brand New transfer from a 35mm grindhouse prints from Ed Adlum's garage

SILENT NIGHT BLOODY NIGHT (aka DEATH HOUSE)

The secrets of a small New England town are violently exposed on Christmas Eve in this proto-slasher shocker. The owner of the long-abandoned Butler estate is desperate to sell, and dispatches his lawyer from New York to negotiate its purchase by the town council. Meanwhile, an inmate from a nearby insane asylum breaks loose and makes his way to the old mansion to take bloody revenge for a crime kept hidden for 35 years. The maniac makes mysterious phone calls to various prominent citizens, telling them that "Marianne" has returned, and lures each to the Butler house to meet their doom. The mayor's daughter, Diane, receives a visit from a man who claims to be Jeremy Butler, the mansion's owner, in town to investigate his lawyer's disappearance. Together they attempt to unravel the sinister mystery of the Butler house, which turns out to be a harrowing tale of incest, insanity and mass murder. Hollywood star Patrick O'Neal (CASTLE KEEP, KREMLIN LETTER), Cult favorites Mary Woronov (EATING RAOUL), John Carradine (GRAPES OF WRATH), Asrid Heeren (CASTLE KEEP). Written by Jeffrey Konvitz (THE SENTINEL) Directed by Theodore Gershuny

POSSE FROM HEAVEN

Posse From Heaven: A refreshing, exciting look at the celestial forces that influence behavior here on earth.

A bunch of groovy sofa couch potato angels headed by THE PRICE IS RIGHT announcer Rod Roddy watches Tabloid queen/ Argentine firecracker Fanne Foxe strip and dance.
They see a loser cowboy named Appletime (Todd Compton, who directed his scenes!) being discharged from the U.S. Cavalry.
The heavenly forces decide to send him a guardian angel in the person of Gabriel.
Something goes amiss in the transfer, however.
When Gabriel arrives on Earth to complete his mission, he discovers himself to be a horse.

Appletime and Gabriel (now Appletime’s horse) set out to fulfill their destinies.
Firecracker Fanne comes down to earth to try and help Appletime along by singing the gospel of love.
This philosophy backfires as Appletime confronts some train robbers with the six-shooter that he has unloaded.
The train robbers tie him up and escape.

After a series of hilarious escapades in which both Fanne and Gabriel try to influence Appletime’s behavior without too much success, Appletime again confronts the train robbers – this time taking the beautiful young female member of the gang captive.
He is unable to hold the rest of the gang, however, and they ride off, leaving Appletime to cope with the girl.

Two love affairs develop and are culminated: the love affair between Appletime and the outlaw Lola – and the love affair between Gabriel and Lola’s horse.
Fanne does not approve of either.

This mishmash comedy runs like an unfinished movie as Todd “Appletime” Compton takes on the bad guy, James Whitworth (THE HILLS HAVE EYES), in a one-on-one cowboy-style gun battle to rescue Sherry Bain (THE HARD RIDE, WILD RIDERS) in the old west at the Paramount Ranch!

Quick question.

Just had a look at EVILSPEAK. (not managed to watch it though)

The code red release is 01:32:31, the extended cut on the Anchor bay UK disc is 01:39:32 so seven minutes and a second longer.

So is anything missing from the code red release?

No, the Anchor Bay release is a bootleg.
