Bargain.

I have all these - nice transfers, the lot of them.

Along similar lines, I watched Passenger 57 on TCM HD last night, is there a BD out there at all?

Don't think so, not a film I'm too bothered about, to be honest. I saw it in the cinema and must have seen it at least once when it was released on rental VHS too but I caught some of it on telly a year ago and couldn't believe how dated it looked now. Not something I'd be bothered about picking up on Blu-ray.

King of New York steelbook £11 at Play.com sold by zavvioutlet

Arrow store has got it's £40 for 5 blus on selected titles also.

Touch of Evil steelbook is currently £15 in-store at HMV, at least it was at mine. They had a section with a few clearance blu-rays.

HMV is 15 miles from where I live. Travelling there would nullify any potential saving.

Sad, but true. Online is the only place I buy DVD/BD's from.

Zavvi have some more Hammer stuff in their upcoming Mega Monday. Probably of most interest are the ones due out on the 22nd.

Rasputin: The Mad Monk - £11.45
The Devil Rides Out - £11.45
The Mummy's Shroud - £11.45

They seem a fair bit cheaper than current pre-order prices (although these prices include the burden of Zavvi's despatch speeds:P), but they're not titles I've been tracking, so perhaps there have been better pre-order deals for them? I think there are a few sites which give you a 10% off code if you click through and buy something (I found a link on twitter last week and it worked, but can't remember the link; it's worth investigating). Some of the older Hammer releases are there too.

Great spot, I haven't checked my email yet! I have them on pre-order from Zavvi for £14.95 each, soon change that!

They haven't sent an e-mail yet, I've bookmarked the Mega Monday page. They usually set it all up on a Saturday, so I have a sneaky peak. Sometimes they save reducing the odd thing until the Sunday. They could recude them more, but it seems unlikely.

That will explain why the email I got from Zavvi doesn't mention the Mega Monday sale
