Don't know this has already been mentioned but one of recent Arrow purchases has a card for 'Beast Within' inside. Has that already been announced / found?

"Scream Factory have some great releases and we would certainly like to, but a lot (possibly all?) of their titles have existing licenses in the UK or we can’t seem to get them from the Studios clutches, in a certain pair of titles we were asking the Studio for them well before they announced them and we’re still trying now, but unfortunately they still won’t give them up! But we’ll keep trying for all the titles we know our fans want."

If Halloween 3 is one of those titles the distributors need publicly flogging (or perhaps the stocks) the uk release is half-assed rubbish and still cut

Ooh I want one of those Fopp sampler discs

I wonder why Universal constantly refuse to license Arrow the rights to Videodrome? Considering Universal saw fit to dump the cut version onto the European/UK Blu-ray market, they clearly don't care about the film themselves...

And they were only too happy to license it out to Criterion in the US. So why not license it here too?

Koch Media put out an uncut blu ray last year, would they have got a licence to do so?

I emailed Universal a year or so ago bemoaning the lack of a decent Videodrome release and they said they had no plans to re-release it in its uncut form. I have a region B player so I have to keep my Criterion DVD and refuse to "upgrade" to the Universal blu ray.
