Definitely drops the 6th disc, the Arrow site says 5 discs. Guess i'll just stick with my original US set. |
In case someone has already ordered the Arrow Phantasm blu-ray amaray set and feels rather dispirited, I'll just point out that there are also extras on the five film discs. There is quite a generous amount for the first two films in particular. |

Anyway.**** the extras. It's all about the artwork!:tongue1: |
I quite like my original arrow phantasm set....:behindsofa: It certainly made me appreciate the first one a lot more seeing it so clearly & with good sound. A set of truly original American horror movies. |
Quote:
True! I already have the American set with the OG, so no point me trading it in for this new one and losing over 3hrs of extras. |
The 6th disc is largely made up of a 90 min doc which was in the anchor bay DVD box set, the best extras are on the individual film discs I think, although I did watch every single bit of supplemental footage on all 6 discs, I was quite against buying the old box set and the silly plastic ball but I'm really glad that I bought it in the end. |
Never been a fan of novelty packaging and 'toys'. Anyone know if the standard release box is the usual sturdy box Arrow uses for its LE's? |
Has anyone else had freezes in their Beyond The Door disc. |

"***NEW TITLE ANNOUNCEMENT*** According to a statement by Nico Mastorakis on the recent Arrow Video Blu-ray of “The Wind”, Arrow will be releasing Dwight H. Little’s “Bloodstone” (1988) on Blu-ray in the near future! Mastorakis was a producer on Bloodstone." |
Does Arrow ship with Hermes these days? I've had an email off Hermes saying they've had a shipping label prepared and I can't think what it's for :lol: Got an Arrow sale order waiting for dispatch and a Halland & Barrett order, hoping it's the former :D |

ARROW ACADEMY NEW UK/US/CA TITLE: Hiroshima (Blu-ray) Release date: July 13th Effectively out of circulation in Japan and the rest of the world since its original release in 1953, Hiroshima combines harrowing documentary realism with moving human drama. "Hiroshima (1953) is a powerful evocation of the devastation wrought by the world’s first deployment of the atomic bomb and its aftermath, based on the written eye-witness accounts of its child survivors compiled by Dr. Arata Osada for the 1951 book Children Of The A Bomb: Testament Of The Boys And Girls Of Hiroshima. Adapted for the screen by independent director Hideo Sekigawa (Listen to the Voices of the Sea, Tokyo Untouchable) and screenwriter Yasutaro Yagi (Theatre of Life, Rice), Hiroshima combines a harrowing documentary realism with moving human drama, in a tale of the suffering, endurance and survival of a group of teachers, their students and their families. It boasts a rousing score composed by Akira Ifukube (Godzilla) and an all-star cast including Yumeji Tsukioka (Late Spring, The Eternal Breasts), Isuzu Yamada (Throne of Blood, Yojimbo) and Eiji Okada (Hiroshima Mon Amour, Woman in the Dunes), appearing alongside an estimated 90,000 residents from the city as extras, including many survivors from that fateful day on 6th August 1945. Hiroshima was produced and distributed outside of the studio system by the Japan Teachers’ Union following the mixed critical reception to Children of Hiroshima (1952), directed by Kaneto Shindo the previous year, the first dramatic feature to deal directly with the atomic bombing. Although sequences from the film were used in Alain Resnais’ classic of French New Wave cinema, Hiroshima Mon Amour (1959), it has been effectively out of circulation in Japan and the rest of the world since its original release in 1953 due to the force and political sensitivity of its message. This new High Definition presentation is the complete version, restoring the footage from the international edit that was released in the United States in 1955." Extra features:

ARROW ACADEMY NEW UK/US/CA TITLE: Life is a Long Quiet River (Blu-ray) Release date: July 20th An outrageously wicked comedy from award winning debut filmmaker Étienne Chatiliez. "An outrageously wicked comedy about two families from award winning debut filmmaker Étienne Chatiliez, this fast-paced satire became the most popular French comedy of the decade. The radiantly bourgeois Le Quesnoys with their immaculate children and perfect manners and the grubby, disreputable Groseilles are thrown together in absurd chaos by an act of revenge as they discover that twelve years prior their babies were switched at birth. A witty send up of class relations and family ties, Life Is a Long Quiet River was celebrated with a host of trophies at France’s César Awards ceremony winning for best screenplay, best debut work and acting prizes for Héléne Vincent and Catherine Jacob."

The "introduction" to beyond the door (from the code red release), is hilarious!!! Juliet Mills compares it to The Omen.... Anyhoo, settling down to watch this for the first time, having only ever seen the trailer on a trailer compilation back in the day. |
"***DREAM DEMON RELEASE DATE UPDATE*** Due to some ongoing production delays we are having to move the release date of this title back to June 22 in the UK and June 23 in the US and Canada. We can only apologise for the additional delays on this release and very much hope you enjoy the set once it arrives!" |
"***NEW ANNOUNCEMENTS ARE COMING!*** Join us this Friday (April 24th) at 3.00pm BST / 7.00am PT / 10.00am ET for our July title reveals!" My first thought was the school massacre film from Gus Van Sant Mind you...people ride on elephants don't they, and presumably you have to stick out your thumb to catch one, so it must be 'The Hitcher' |

Mind you...people ride on elephants don't they, and presumably you have to stick out your thumb to catch one, so it must be 'The Hitcher'[/QUOTE] IT IS THE HITCHER! |
Definitely the Hitcher! That’s a photo of an elephant, during the 2nd Punic War, Hannibal rode elephants. Another famous Hannibal is John ‘Hannibal’ Smith from the A Team, played by George Peppard, who in 1980 starred in a film called Battle Beyond the Stars with John Saxon. John Saxon was in a film called Tenebrae in 1982, directed by Dario Argento. Dario Argento directed a film called Dracula 3D in 2012, which starred Rutger Hauer as Van Helsing. In 1986 Rutger Hauer player John Ryder in, you’ve guessed it, The Hitcher! :) |

NEW UK/US/CA TITLE: Black Rainbow (Blu-ray) Release date: July 6th Sent direct-to-video on initial release, Black Rainbow unfairly never got the exposure it deserved, newly restored from the original negative audiences can now discover the darkness at the end of the rainbow.

NEW UK/US/CA TITLE: Inferno of Torture (Blu-ray) Release date: 6th July Exploitation legend Teruo Ishii one of his most extreme visions of violent eroticism in this, the sixth in his abnormal love series. "Exploitation legend Teruo Ishii (Horrors of Malformed Men, Orgies of Edo) delivers one of his most extreme visions of violent eroticism in this, the sixth in his abnormal love series. Tattoos and torture await women forced into servitude in Ishii's Inferno of Torture. Unable to repay a local lender, Yumi (Yumika Katayama) takes up an offer to serve as a geisha for two years with a promise of freedom once her debt is repaid. She quickly realises that this is less a house of geishas than an extremely cruel brothel specialising in supplying western visitors with tattooed playthings. Taken under the wing of one of the leading tattoo artists vying for a coveted spot in the Shogun's good graces through his work, Yumi's body becomes a battleground as a rival artist becomes determined not to lose his spot at the top. When the madam, Otatsu (Mieko Fujimoto) trains her eye on the blossoming relationship between the benevolent artist Horihide (Teruo Yoshida) and his model, she makes sure than her stay is less than hospitable, inspiring the torturous inferno of the title. Following Ishii's legendary Shogun's Joy of Torture and Orgies of Edo, the prolific filmmaker still manages to turn up the heat in this incredibly violent and salacious entry in a filmography unlike any other. From the film's opening scene depicting some of the most perverse violence ever captured on screen, through to the shock ending that will leave the audience's mouths agape, there's nothing quite like Inferno of Torture. Tender romance clashes with vile sadism as a sea of tattooed female flesh floods nearly every frame of this film depicting Japan's Edo period as only Ishii could." Extra features:

NEW UK/US/CA TITLE: Zombie for Sale (Blu-ray) Release date: July 6th Will warm the deadest of hearts and breathe some new life into the zombie genre. "An infectiously funny slice of modern Korean cinema where Train to Busan, The Quiet Family and Warm Bodies collide to create a memorable rom-zom-com from first time director Lee Min-jae. When the illegal human experiments of Korea’s biggest Pharmaceutical company go wrong, one of their “undead” test subjects escapes and ends up in a shabby gas station owned by the Park family – a band of misfits spanning three generations who hustle passers-by to make ends meet. When the Park family uncover their undead visitor, he bites the head of their household, who instead of transforming into an undead ghoul becomes revitalised and full of life! The family then hatch a plan to exploit this unexpected fountain of youth, allowing locals to pay to be bitten too, until things go wrong… With a cabbage-munching zombie who prefers ketchup over blood, and a dysfunctional family that gives the Kim family of Parasite a run for their money, Zombie for Sale will warm the deadest of hearts and breathe some new life into the zombie genre."
