They happily accepted my Stage Fright artwork for nowt, mentioned they may use it in some poster slideshow feature thing . . .

Why on earth would it only be a 'limited deluxe release'?

To rake it in from frantic pre-ordering? Or is there some licensing thing that might limit the amount of copies you can make . . .

Test the waters?

The fact they are still working on Stagefright with no mention on the others says to me none will be released. They covered their backs by saying problems with the materials.

Well the others were just teasers.

I doubt they wouldn't do it when the main banner on their website still says Limited Edition Horror Collection coming soon!

We know from Shameless and Arrow that some masters held by the Italian companies aren't very good to start with so an issue with materials is always going to dog these kind of releases.
None of the suggested titles including StageFright have had HD releases anywhere so if they are putting that title out they'll have to start from scratch with a HD transfer. Zombi Holocaust also hasn't had a HD release besides Shreik Shows Blu/DVD Combo but that was thought to have been an upgraded standard def transfer.

I think it is down to the original (if possible) negatives being available for these releases. Arrow from what I understand now have excellent film transfer experts on board, so where ever they source their material you can be assured your going to see it at it's very best.
