• Film Noir Trailers

 

[Kino Lorber Insider]

Thank you for the reply. Ive requested them before too I really think Konga deserves a chance and The Flame Barrier would fit right in with Curse of the Faceless Man, The Magnetic Monster etc. Im hoping KINO has made good profits to do a little splurging
Monstroid could be with Shout, they did release it via an Elvira DVD release.

Unfortunately, both Curse of the Faceless Man and The Magnetic Monster were not good sellers and one of them had an existing HD master. Both Konga and The Flame Barrier would need new HD transfers.

 

[Kino Lorber Insider]

Any chance of some AIP Beach movies? Thank you.

We doubt it.

 

[Keith Cobby]

Thanks very much for Highway Dragnet. One of my favourites - Mary Beth Hughes - is in it. Any chance of the Michael Shayne (Nolan) films being released?

Well, I can live without a Konga blu because at least it's on DVD (and it's a bit of a turkey to boot... sorry, Konga fans....).

As for the news on Flame Barrier.....

Anyway, thanks KLI for your responsiveness. It's much appreciated.

And I cannot wait for The Maze! Bless you guys for carrying the 3D flag!

Konga is a turkey, but it's kind of a fun turkey. People always buy gorilla movies. It's in our DNA. At least, in the DNA of some of us.

I’d definitely be up for Paper Chase and Monsignor!

 

[Matt Hough]

In all of my years of reviewing movies, Monsignor is the only one that I slept through and had to go back to be able to review it.

 

[TheSteig]

Konga might be a turkey to some, but to others its a wonderfully delicious turkey. There are far worse movies on Blu ray and Konga goes have a pretty strong following. I know many people would love a Blu ray release of it. Dare I say, go Ape ?

Never heard of him.

 

[Randy Korstick]

Wow! Thanks Kino the Outer Limits set looks incredible. Thanks for all the extras. Pre-ordered!

 

[battlebeast]

Never heard of him.

Is He the brother of Jim Beam?

 

[Hollywoodaholic]

Ordered TOL Season One. Thanks again, KL! Can't wait!

I once again re-direct any fans to the episode-by-episode review site We Are Controlling Transmission, which went through the entire two seasons in 2011, and with comments, book pages, and participation by David J. Schow. When you get your box set, I suggest you read the notes and comments on each episode after you view that particular episode for some great and fascinating appreciations. In addition to the audio commentaries included on these discs, of course.

Do you know what the source for the soundtrack is? I hope they don't process it. The dvd audio was so badly noise-gated I stopped watching them.

Hi Stephen! I'm not sure---- the disc format is DTS, but that's no indicator of the actual source. I was provided with 720p time-coded scans for my commentaries, and the audio seemed.... maybe a bit clearer. Definitely louder. But again, I have no idea what the final 1080p encodes will sound like.

 

[Robert Crawford]

I see that Joan of Arc (1948) is being released by Kino Classics on March 27th. I suspect it will be the 145 minute version which this year would be its 70th Anniversary.

Kino Lorber Insider:

Is there any possibility that Kino Lorber could obtain the rights for a DVD release of the two-part television movie Attack on Terror; The F.B.I vs. the Ku Klux Klan that aired on CBS in 1975?
