NEW UK ONLY TITLE: City of the Dead (Dual Format Blu-ray & DVD) A wonderfully atmospheric and still shocking slice of horror that stands firmly alongside with its Hammer contemporaries. Pre-order in the UK: City of the Dead Release Date: 24th April 2017 IN WHITEWOOD, TIME STANDS STILL… Christopher Lee was already a horror icon when he started filming The City of the Dead in 1959. Having played Frankenstein’s Monster, Count Dracula and The Mummy for Hammer, this new picture would allow him to extend his range to the American Gothic – and witchcraft in a small New England village… Lee plays Professor Driscoll, an authority on the occult who persuades one of his students (Venetia Stevenson) to research his hometown, Whitewood, once the site of witch burnings in the 17th century. Booking herself into the Raven’s Inn, she soon learns that devil worship among the locals hasn’t been consigned to the past. Produced by future Amicus founders Milton Subotsky and Max Rosenberg, and beautifully shot by Desmond Dickinson (whose credits ranged from Laurence Olivier’s Hamlet to Horrors of the Black Museum), The City of the Dead is a wonderfully atmospheric and still shocking slice of horror that stands firmly alongside with its Hammer contemporaries.

NEW UK ONLY TITLE: Catfight (Blu-ray) A darkly hilarious film that combines the violence of Fight Club and the poignant comedy of Arrested Development Pre-order in the UK: Catfight Release Date: 20th March 2017 THEY’RE IN FOR THE FIGHT OF THEIR LIVES! Prepare to sink your claws into Catfight, a brutal and darkly hilarious film that combines the violence of Fight Club and the poignant comedy of Arrested Development, all mashed into one of the most original and funniest movies of recent years. Struggling artist Ashley (Anne Heche) and wealthy housewife Veronica (Sandra Oh) were friends at college, but their paths have not crossed since. When they find themselves attending the same event (Ashley working as a waiter at Veronica’s rich husband’s party), their initial thinly-veiled verbal pleasantries soon take a turn, leading to an all-out brawl and all-consuming rivalry that will keep these two locked in combat for years. With supporting appearances from Alicia Silverstone as Ashley’s lesbian love interest, and Dylan Baker playing an overworked coma doctor, Catfight turns the portrayal of women’s fights in movies on its head in the most violent of ways possible, landing a killer satirical blow at modern day society.

The Arrow Films / Video Thread As usual, I'll wait for the Phantasm set to sell out, then buy them when they're released individually. |
So they've basically put the blu-rays in the old dvd case for Phantasm. :lol: |

I intend to pick up Caltiki the Immortal Monster as i've never seen it and City of The Dead as it's a fave of mine. Nice that Rigby got to do a commentary with Lee for it. Anything's better than the old 'silver fox'. |
