Upcoming from BU:

Independent U.S. distributors Blue Underground have confirmed that they will release on Blu-ray cult Spanish director Jess Franco's film The Girl From Rio (1969), starring Shirley Eaton, Maria Rohm, Richard Wyler, George Sanders, Marta Reves, and Elisa Montés.

The upcoming Blu-ray release will also include Franco's film The Million Eyes of Sumur (1967), which is the prequel to The Girl From Rio.

The Girl From Rio

In the tradition of Barbarella and Danger: Diabolik comes this swinging '60s action orgy as bisexual super-villain Sumitra (the luscious Shirley Eaton of Goldfinger and The Blood Of Fu Manchu) launches a diabolical plan to enslave the male species with her army of lusty warrior women. But when Sumitra kidnaps a fugitive American playboy, she crosses a sadistic crime boss (Academy Award winner George Sanders of All About Eve and Village Of The Damned) and ignites a battle of the sexes that will bring Brazil to its knees in more ways than one. Get ready to experience director Jess Franco at his most erotic, exotic and bizarre. This is The Girl From Rio!

Richard Wyler (The Bounty Killer) and Maria Rohm (Eugenie, Justine) co-star in this kinky cult favorite (also known as Rio 70, Future Women and The Seven Secrets Of Sumuru), packed with go-go boots, miniskirts and outrageous Jess Franco style. The Girl From Rio is now presented totally uncut and uncensored with all its eye-popping nudity, torture and lesbianism fully restored from original vault elements.

The Million Eyes of Sumur

Sumuru is a beautiful but evil woman who plans world domination by having her sexy all-female army eliminate male leaders and replace them with her female agents. Starring Frankie Avalon, Klaus Kinski, George Nader, Shirley Eaton, and Maria Rohm.

Well, that's going on the list as this will be the first decent release of Million Eyes I believe.

I didn't know BU were releasing this Shonteff film.

Also this -



You may as well get the Network release in their next sale...it'll be far cheaper.

If i remember rightly you also get the original UK titles as an extra which is more than the BU disc gives you.

More info on Manhattan Baby:

We can finally reveal that our next Lucio Fulci Blu-ray upgrade will be... MANHATTAN BABY! We're working on a new 2K restoration from the original negative, as well as producing a bunch of new special features. More details later, but here's a sneak peek of the 3-Disc Limited Edition cover artwork, along with the alternate "Eye of the Evil Dead" art featured on the reverse side.

I've always loved that 'Eye of the Evil Dead' artwork. So much so in fact that I bought a German grosse DVD hardbox of it a few years ago.

I'll need to rewatch the Shameless DVD before deciding whether I want upgrade to Blu-ray.
