I'd like them all in steelbooks – I have the two already released – but, as that isn't going to happen, I'm probably just going to buy the box set. Using a discount I have, it comes to just under £60 at Amazon, which is good, particularly if I sell the standard releases of Pit and the Pendulum and Fall of the House of Usher, which I also own.

Surely consumers get cheesed off when they pay full RRP for a title from Arrow direct only to find the price slashed in a "special sale" (the argument would be why couldn't we have the special price in the first place? especially from Arrow themselves) as Arrow will still make a profit on a 'sale price' disc and the move to the U.S. market will mean much more fierce competition, maybe a move to a "pile em high and sell em cheap" philosophy may be in order, while I really like Withnail & I, my feature heavy ABUK BD at £3 new from HMV will not be displaced on the shelf any time soon, tho the Corman/Poe set would be more tempting at £40-50 or such I must admit(but not as others have said if I already forked out for 2 steelbooks)

I don't go for too many boxsets, but I have ordered the Vincent Price set, as I think it looks amazing. |

Michael, do you have any info on the Shivers problem? A lot of time has passed since the news it was cut.

However from what has been worked out, due to the cuts matching the US R Rated cut, the print used originally carrying the American title, and the US R Rating card at the end, it would seem the R Rated cut was used for the restoration by TIFF. In a sense it would mean it technically isn't cut, but an alternate cut, with less material than the intended cut.

My opinion, for what its worth. In regards to pricing. I'm stacking the price of Arrows new Blu-rays and their availability against releases like TT stuff $29.95 a title before shipping, and code red (good luck getting them anywhere else aside from a scalper at top prices) where I got lucky and paid around £20 for one blu-ray including postage off diabolik. I also factor in the fact that sales for most titles are pretty much a fraction of what they might have been due to the fact most non collectors seem to stream these days. Honestly I don't consider the Arrow stuff that expensive at all. The only one that made my eye water was the customised withnail set, but i'm happy with the release and as a fan of the film i'm glad to have it personalised. Frankly i'm damn lucky to have a job as there was no way I could have afforded everything. So I think its good that those not interested in fancy packaging get a budget release down the line to own the film, just as synapse have done with the demons films. |
