Re: Hell Just Froze Over....
I'm a little wary until I see the full details, but if they are OAR and Anamorphic, then I'm definitely in for The Skull and The Possession of Joel Delaney.
Might pick up ZPG too as I'm a big Oliver Reed fan.

I believe, from what I've read elsewhere on this board, is that it is owned by Lion's Gate.

Re: Hell Just Froze Over....
Johnny Guitar is part of the Republic library, which was licensed in whole (except for It's a Wonderful Life) to Lionsgate. Lionsgate only holds current DVD rights, not ownership of the films.

Re: Hell Just Froze Over....
Widescreen Amicus horror classic The Skull is the only one I'm interested in from that list. I've had a badly panned and scanned vhs copy for more than 25 years now. I'd love to see what it looks like in it's correct ratio.

Re: Hell Just Froze Over....
Johnny Guitar was recently released in R2 by Paramount, it still has the Republic Pictures logo on the dvd case so that would mean it's still part of the Republic Pictures library.
BTW, the picture quality of the film on dvd is very good...

Re: Hell Just Froze Over....
Odd these titles didnt go to a more well known label, as especially on PHASE IV, Criterion or Blue Underground could have done wonders with it.

Re: Hell Just Froze Over....
Legend? What are they going to do; drain out all the colour and crayon them in again?
So many films, so little time...
