Used to be time was, I thought Severin was the superior boutique exploitation label. VS was just "those guys who have a bunch of porn and also Christmas Evil". Now I've flip-flopped and love Vinegar Syndrome, their releases for the past several months have been on-point. Bought: Blood Harvest, Nightmare Sisters, Liquid Sky, and then later added Storefront Theatre: All Night at the Bizarre Art because I'm a sucker for really weird old porn. e: vv Unfortunately, yes. I bought it sight-unseen and then it came on The Last Drive-In last night and sucked on toast. But oh well, no regrets! Okay, some regrets King Vidiot fucked around with this message at 01:01 on May 26, 2019 |

I think my bluray shelf is equally taken up by Vinegar Syndrome, Severin, Arrow, Shout, Kino Lorber, and Criterion.

In my quest to crack $100 on the Vinegar Syndrome sale, I can safely say that after this year's Black Friday sale, I will likely have all of their in print non-porn back catalog  I'm getting a box with 16 discs in it  I guess now I should focus my attention on the other boutique labels now.

I will love VS forever due to Christmas Evil and Night Train to Terror, but I’ve also gotten more stinkers from them than any other label. Still salty about Deadly Daphne’s Revenge, christ what a piece of poo poo. Severin is probably my favorite right now. I’ve also gotten some really cool stuff from Mondo Macabro

Speaking of high def porn, I wish KIDS could get a BD release. I’m not looking for a ton, just a faithful picture w a 2K scan. One thing that came to mind recently: death of extras on home releases. I picked up the UHD release of the first X-men trilogy because I really enjoy the first two movies and the price was right. But I’m not ready to ditch my BD copies because there’s extra discs w special features, etc. however, I don’t really watch them. It’s wishful thinking. New movies don’t really do that kind of stuff these days. Just a couple quick surface-level extras that are a few minutes long. I assume it’s for any number of reasons. Easier to package for digital releases. No one really watched them in the first place. No one watches them now because there’s literally unlimited media to watch if you have any 3 subscriptions. I think I’ll try to go through those extras sometime soon and then give away the BDs and save the space. EDIT: to clarify this is about mainstream releases. Not your Criterion’s, etc.

anyone know anything about when/if Scream Factory is going to do a "Summer of Fear" sale this year? Last year it started on June 4th so I'd expect it to be announced before too long.

That's a reason to watch it once, which I won't argue with, but the idea of someone wanting to watch it more times than once frightens me.

One day she's in near tears and we're like wtf happened to you. To be honest, I'm pretty shocked that two high school students would even know what that movie is. One knew it well enough to make it his favorite, and one knew it well enough to know that it's hosed up to call it someone's favorite movie.

I think it was a Gen X thing exclusively. I was a film nerd in high school in 2001-2005 and never heard anyone mention Kids. IIRC I'd heard of it but I had no particular interest in seeing it, and I seriously doubt it was on anyone else's radar. e: Though maybe it's because we were in small town Iowa so it wasn't as relevant to us as it would be city kids? feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 17:30 on May 29, 2019 |

I have.... NO LEGS. I have no legs! Yeah that movie was a thing to sit through once, and I'm glad I'm not alone in hating it. I think the only thing that makes it even watchable is Harmony Korine's script. But man is it creepy and bleak.

When Kids came out my dad took my sister to see it to expose her to the dangers of teen drug use and having sex in high school. She was so mortified by the whole experience that to this day she will not talk about that movie and if you mention it she gets very upset.

It is important to go into the film knowing that Larry Clark is not the director of A Christmas Story. Also his Teenage Caveman is not the Roger Corman one. Sorry, dad.
