Later Fulci films
 
I'm having a bit of mook around my older Fulci DVD's this week. I'd love Shameless to release -

House's of Doom series on DVD, I know two of them are Lenzi films and they've already been released endlessly by Vipco but surely the masters exist somewhere and can be improved upon. Sweet House is not very good as a whole I know but maybe a decent transfer could improve peoples opinions of it?

Touch of Death - a mad, no wild later Fulci title. It's also one of my favourites, I do seem to like Fulci in no holds barred nasty action. To my knowledge Touch hasn't ever had a UK release and if the masters could be found the title could be a decent seller as it's never had a particularrly good release anywhere because of the missing masters.

Voices From Beyond - To me this is possibly Fulci's last 'good' film in that the the stories coherant and it looks like all concerned actually cared about what they were making. It's due to get a Blu release from Code Red in 2013 so a decent master must be knocking around somewhere.

Demonia - Ok, not the best later Fulci but certainly not the worst. What hurts the film the most is the slapdash editing. This also has never had a UK release and I'm sure the Shreik Show disc could be improved upon by now. There are a few elements to enjoy in Demonia though and a few references to other Fulci titles throughout.

Cat in the Brain - Alot of people hate this title for various reasons, personally I love it. It's outragous, it's gory and it's cheap looking. Surely this is due for a newer release?

There's an excellent R1 release.

I'd love a remastered release of A TOUCH OF DEATH, it's quite nasty but very funny in parts. Doubt it'll happen though as the master is lost apparently.

I know there is I own the Grindhouse Releasing discs myself, but I feel it could do with a proper Region 2 or better still Region 0 release. Remastering techniques are always improving so Cat could possibly look better than ever before.

Meh I'd rather they'd release some decent one off gialli from unknowns, rather than sub-par efforts from a once great director. JMO.

Agreed.

I already have all these on DVD, and they aren't worth double dipping for (although I do have 2 different DVDs of Cat ;))

The House of Clocks and Touch of Death are my favourites of that bunch, though.

Ding dong we have a winner!:nod:

I'd rather released something, nearly April now and bugger all has been announced

I wouldn't mind some decent releases of some of the "Lucio Fulci Presents" films, such as The Red Monks, Hansel and Gretyl, The Murder Secret and Bloody Psycho. There's also Andrea Bianchi's Massacre, as well.

Are you sure? I've always thought it would be released on DVD in a new HD transfer. Hope it's true though.

And the film is actually good. The funeral scene is so perfect.

I'm very much with you on this, altough Red Monks has had a UK release and both Murder Secret and Massacre were released by EC Entertainment. But I'm sure they could be remastered and dressed up. Bloody Psycho and Hansel have Italian DVD releases, sadly they don't have any English options.

But yeah the whole 'Lucio Fulci presents' series would be very nice.

I'd definitely be up for a Shameless DVD/BD release of Cat in the Brain; I like it a lot! :nod:

Robbmeister X 13th December 2013 09:52 AM

Please, please, can Shameless never release Aenigma, because I already own it (I bought the HardGore edition out of Poundland) and it's absolutely awful? Cat in the Brain is much more fun, but again I already own it, and it isn't classic Fulci. There must be something else to release out there, surely, that hasn't been released before. The Red Monks is just okay, btw, and I have that one as well.

How about the HOUSE OF CLOCKS TRILOGY

Robbmeister X 14th December 2013 09:16 PM

I already have House of Clocks. :lol:

House of Clocks isn't a trilogy though

Robbmeister X 18th December 2013 01:06 AM

It was a made for TV movie Vipco released in a box set with Fulci's Sweet House of Horror and two Umberto Lenzi films. Worth watching, but it has a really fake evisceration scene.

Pete 21st December 2013 12:18 PM

An English friendly release of The Devil's Honey would be nice.

Saw it a couple of days ago, on VHS, not very good... Hard to believe it was directed by the same man who gave us The Beyond.

I don't see Shameless release this so...

VFB is a truly awful film. Still, it's mildly better than Sodoma's Ghost! :ack:

You can't say that about a Code Red released film. It's clearly Fulci's masterpiece. :lol:
