Universal requests for 2006 (1 Viewer)

[Rex Bachmann]

I'd like to second Peter Fitzgerald's list of "sci-fi" and horror films, especially:

This Island Earth (1955)
Monster on Campus (1958)
The Thing That Could Not Die (1958)

plus

a re-master of High Plains Drifter (1973)
and the Thriller series (early 1960s)

Add also

Mary, Queen of Scots (1971).

I wouldn't mind the movie PUFNSTUF, which has a great performance by and including some great songs by Mama Cass, who played the queen witch, cheezy as the film was. Also a nice remaster of Munster Go Home would be nice. Plus Tarantula and some of the great 50's horror, sadly unreleased.

Universal needs to release these:

Deadly Blessing (1981) - a special edition would be nice. I know Craven would at least do a commentary.
High Desert Kill (1989)
Closet Land (1991)
The Island of Lost Souls (1933)
The Dark Secret of Harvest Home (1978)
The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957)
I'm Dangerous Tonight (1990)

Three words: Flower Drum Song

And either drop the DVD-18s or master them at another plant. The "Gimme a Break" DVD set (more seasons of that, please) was made up of DVD-9s and all played just fine.
