Thanks to this thread, I ended up grabbing The Crazies, Maniac Cop, Frankenhooker, Dead End Drive In, Bride of Re-Animator and Contamination from the Arrow sale. This is going to lead to me buying a region-free player and some difficult revamping of our household budgeting.

Comparison of the Shout! and Indicator releases of The Tingler. Shout! used Sony's existing 2K master, which features the color insert scene blown up from 16mm in decidedly bad quality. Indicator had a rare British print scanned in 4K to fill in for that sequence on their edition and... https://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?go=1&a=0&d1=12449&d2=12448&s1=123590&s2=123596&i=6&l=0 (The rest of the film looks exactly the same)

Holy gently caress, Arrow is doing an extended edition release of Waterworld this December, I cannot loving believe it. An extended cut of Waterworld has been at the top of my “video release wish list” for ages, along with an extended edition of Event Horizon.

I'm a simple man, all I want is the Extended Cut of Margaret to get a blu-ray release. Can't believe that's DVD only, in a pack with a blu-ray of the abridged version.

Is there a bunch of really crazy poo poo cut from Waterworld because of studio interference/bad test screenings or are they just cramming in a bunch of deleted scenes?

From what I could dredge up, it improves it. It’s 40 extra minutes of character development and dialogue. The extended cut has been available on DVD, but as the censored tv edit. This new version from Arrow says its including a fan edit that uses the extra content but cuts in the uncensored footage. Here’s a good video I found that talks about the movie and the edit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcAvCwPH3KM

The Chucky: Complete 7-Movie Collection is back down to $24.99 on Amazon. I went ahead and snagged it. They're not all great movies but for the price it's hard to resist. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073H5D441/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I should finally get a good copy of Child's Play. Pretty sure the one in my DVD set was non-anamorphic. e: Not that I'd really like to rewatch a DVD anyway. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Oct 15, 2018 |

Rirse posted:Thought it didn't since Chucky sewed together appearance is after his encounter with the fan at the end of 3? they never explicitly say, iirc. both the end of 2 and the end of 3 basically completely obliterate Chucky, so it could pretty much work going from either, and it doesn't contain any other references to 3.

TheScott2K posted:Waterworld is good as hell gently caress all the haters Waterworld was one of those movies that got unfairly bashed at the time and largely by people who didn't even see it, just because the bashing became fashionable. Cable Guy also suffered from this. In both cases we're far enough away from that dumb bullshit to have an honest conversation about the movie on it's own merits outside of the era's pop culture. And in both cases I find that the majority of people now speak favorably of these movies.

I’ll never watch it again but I will defend it because it fits my narrative that the child’s play franchise is the best. 3 is mediocre but it never hits the low low lows as Friday part 8-9, ANOES 5-6, Halloween 5-the rest of the series(maybe barring H20, need a rewatch), or the most trash garbage worthless franchise, Hellrasier after Hellbound. Give me childs play3 any day over those.

But franchise horror is largely a garbage dump anyway. The only worthwhile Child's Play movie is the first one and even then it's just pretty okay. The original premise they had in mind would have been way more interesting.

I'll take an abomination over a complete snoozer like Child's Play 3. Stuff like Jason Takes Manhattan or Hellraiser 3 are at least dumb fun, the things that are bad about them will at least not put you to sleep like the extended stretches of nothing in Child's Play 3.

I forgot about the Scream Factory sale. Is John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness worth a $16 blind buy? So far, I have the They Live steelbook and Vincent Price Vol. 2 in my cart. On the fence about Carrie and Dead Ringers. I will say that everyone needs to buy Phantom of the Paradise and Army of Darkness since they're fantastic.

Whoa now, ANOES 4-6 are solid (if dumb) horror sequels. I’d even say they’re more entertaining than the consistently-praised but secretly boring New Nightmare.

I loathe 5-6 of the nightmare movies. 5 is so slow and dull, 6 is just annoying. I hate the way Freddy looks in both too. Super cheap. Anoes 4 is amazing and the most gonzo fun of the series. (I didn’t say best, don’t @ me.)
