Awww, that's a bit of a damp squib. I would prefer to see something that needs a DVD release, rather than one that's already had a handful.

So, the question is, which slasher is up next?

"** FEMALE PRISONER SCORPION FINAL SPECS **

It is time to reveal the the final specs for our upcoming UK/US release of Female Prisoner Scorpion: The Complete Collection. Release dates are August 8th/9th, UK/US respectively.

Pre-order the UK edition: Female Prisoner Scorpion: The Complete Collection
Pre-order the US edition: Female Prisoner Scorpion Collection (Arrow US) (DVD / Blu-Ray Combo)

----------------------------------

Starring the iconic and beautiful Meiko Kaji (Lady Snowblood, Stray Cat Rock) in a role that came to define her career, the four-film Female Prisoner Scorpion series charts the vengeance of Nami Matsushima, who assumes the mantle of "Scorpion," becoming an avatar of vengeance and survival, and an unlikely symbol of female resistance in a male-dominated world.

Female Prisoner #701: Scorpion introduces Nami, a gullible young woman unjustly imprisoned, who must find a way to escape in order to exact revenge upon the man who betrayed her. The visually avant-garde Female Prisoner Scorpion: Jailhouse 41 sees director Shunya Ito and star Meiko Kaji re-unite as Nami and six other female convicts escape prison once more. The Gothic horror-inspired Beast Stable finds Nami branded public enemy #1 and on the run. She soon finds refuge with a sympathetic prostitute, but runs afoul of a local gang. The final film in the series, #701's Grudge Song (from director Yasuharu Hasebe, Retaliation, Massacre Gun), shows a gentler side of Nami as she falls in with Kudo, an ex-radical suffering from physical and psychological trauma caused by police torture.

Spiritual kin to Ms. 45, Coffy and The Bride Wore Black, the Female Prisoner Scorpion is the pinnacle of early 1970s exploitation cinema from Japanese grindhouse studio Toei, and one of the greatest female revenge sagas ever told.

They didn't give a specific day, I don't think, just "next week." Probably a matter of waiting for final confirmation on some small detail... special features, artwork, etc. Tomorrow's probably likely, though, if only because people will start going absolutely rabid on their Facebook page if they wait until Friday.

I reckon one of the "biggest ever" releases will probably be a Phantasm set or a Paul Naschy collection (hasn't that been rumoured for a while or was it just numerous people suggesting/asking for it?)

I'm pretty sure Phantasm is on the cards but I've heard nothing of a Paul Naschy set.
