Yes, that's why I said see if anyone with the same player is having the same problem. The Powerhouse/The Legacy problem was related to just a few players and was down to the way the disc was encoded.

Eureka Halloween Releases

A great line-up IMO and I've ordered all three.



976-EVIL (Blu-ray)
Release Date: 19th October 2020

SYNOPSIS
Director Robert Englund (the iconic Freddy Krueger from the Nightmare on Elm Street series) dials up a gothic tale of high-tech horror in 976-EVIL.

High school underdog Hoax (Stephen Geoffreys – Fright Night) fills up the idle hours in his seedy little hometown fending off the local leather-jacketed thugs, avoiding his overbearing mother (Sandy Dennis) and dreaming of a date with trailer park temptress Suzie (Lezlie Deane), But his quietly desperate life takes a terrifying turn when his cousin introduces him to an unusual new hobby – phoning in for his “horrorscope”. Hoax is hooked up with a compellingly hideous demonic force that slowly begins to overtake his entire life and now there’s more than just a phone bill to pay for anyone who ever dared cross “the neighbourhood nerd”.

Co-written by Brian Helgeland (L.A. Confidential, Mystic River) and featuring incredibly practical effects work from Robert Kurtzman and Howard Berger, Eureka Classics is proud to present 976-EVIL on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Sleepwalkers (Blu-ray)
Release Date: 19th October 2020

SYNOPSIS
Stephen King’s Sleepwalkers is a classic horror story that takes a perfect Normal Rockwell town… and turns it inside out.
Brian Krause, Mädchen Amick (Twin Peaks), and Alice Krige (Chariots of Fire) star in this terrifying tale of modern-day vampires who move from small town to small town to prey on virtuous young women. Imperceptibly inhuman to everyone except for felines, these vicious shapeshifters have their eyes on a new victim: Tanya (Amick), who has fallen for Charles, the new boy at her school.
Making its debut on Blu-ray in the UK, Eureka Classics is proud to present Stephen King’s Sleepwalkers.

SPECIAL FEATURES

The Bride With White Hair (Blu-ray)
Release Date: 26th October 2020

SYNOPSIS
Ronny Yu (The Phantom Lover; Warriors Of Virtue; The Bride of Chucky) directs this highly operatic fable based on a well-known martial arts novel with Leslie Cheung (A Better Tomorrow; Farewell, My Concubine) and Brigitte Lin (Zu Warriors from the Magic Mountain; Police Story) as doomed lovers caught in the crossfire of warring clans.

Cheung plays Zhuo Yihang, a rebellious but extremely talented swordsman of the Wudang Sect (aka the Wu-Tang Clan, a fictional martial arts sect that appears in many wuxia novels and films). One day he meets and falls in love with Lian Nichang (Lin), the adopted daughter of a rival cult led by the villainous Ji Wushuang. Zhuo convinces Lian to leave the cult to be with him, a decision which will ultimately lead to death and betrayal.

With beautiful cinematography by Peter Pau (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and over-the-top action sequences, The Bride with White Hair is one of the best swordplay fantasy films ever made, and Eureka Classics is proud to present the film from a brand new 4K restoration in its UK debut on Blu-ray.

is the 976-Evil release compromised? I can't work it out from the online information. According to Melon Farmers there has never been an uncut release in the UK. And other sources talk about a long version but is that a rogue edit and the short version definitive? Bottom line for me is do we get the 8s cut by the BBFC back?

I can't imagine it's going to be trimmed by 8s, it's been out in the US and Germany and I imagine this will be the same master as those two. The long version is included in the Eureka set, it's SD only sourced from video as it was only ever released on VHS.
it'smebilly and Rob4 like this.

It's been on my radar for some time now The Bride, so probably pre-order this one, until October I will forget about it.
