REVENGE OF THE CREATURE is newly restored and coming to 3-D Blu-ray on August 28, 2018: 4K scans of the original 35mm negatives by NBCUniversal and stereoscopic alignment by 3-D Film Archive!

For more information on the restoration and rare Creature memorabilia from the Archive, please visit: http://www.3dfilmarchive.com/revenge-of-the-creature

Is this the announcement that was announced yesterday, then announced that the announcement was pushed back to June 11? Or is there another announcement to be announced on the previously announced new announcement date of June 11?

Or did someone announce that it's already June 11 while I was offline?

Answered in the other thread...

Yes, it was changed to Monday but a retailer posted early so that ended the freeze.

Is Revenge of the Creature to be available on its own?

If I had to guess I'd say probably not because except for The Bride Of Frankenstein, none of the other sequel discs from the Universal monster sets have been sold individually. Like I said though, that's just a guess on my part and I could be totally wrong.

Too bad for those who already have a Creature 3D Blu ray and all the other creature feature sets on DVD.

At this point I'm happy just to see the release in my lifetime triple dip notwithstanding.

That stuff happens all the time in this hobby.

Unless it is available separately I’ll probably take a pass. I’ve seen the film in 3D and even 3D on broadcast TV when they used to give away free glasses at variety stores as a promotion. (Horrible quality of course, but it was the only game in town. We watched my Beta tape of the broadcast over and over!)

Since owning the 3D Blu ray of Creature, and the boxed set DVDs of black lagoon films, I watched each once to make sure they played properly, put them on the shelf, and only touched them as I was dusting since.

Like a lot of us, I guess, I already have the standalone copy of Creature plus the one that's in the Universal Monsters box set. It still won't stop me buying this new box set as I'll still have two more films I've never seen before. As long as it gets them out there!

I know the feeling, and for most movies, I don't relish the prospect of double dips the way some seem to. I'm quite happy with how a lot of my dvds and blurays look already. With 3-D movies, I have a different policy.

I can understand other people having different priorities. The point I make about these blu-ray sets is that the prices are not extoritionate and they take up minimal shelf space. You'll probably be able to pick up this entire set for less than the price of one of the Twilight Time 3-D releases and comparable in cost to a Kino 3-D release. The bluray cases for these pack a lot in, but are the same size as standard UK bluray cases, which are only slightly larger than US cases.

The point is, while I'll end up buying 3 films instead of the one I want, including an unnecessary duplicate, I'll be paying a price I've been happy to pay for single releases in the past, and it'll take up about as much space as a single release.

I've loved the Universal BR sets but have always had one single gripe in that some films cross over into other sets leaving us with extra discs. I am pretty certain many welcome the complete series in each box but it does seem a little unnecessary.

Wonderful news to see the Creature films become available and will please many a life long fan of them including me. We still watch our 8mm sound films of them which these days is a pure nostalgia trip but very enjoyable at that. Lets hope Universal duplicate a good number of that boxed set as it will be a hot seller for them.

Thank you Universal for some wonderful classics on Blu-Ray particularly the Bela Lugosi material which made my day very much, also the new forthcoming Creature collection and Invisible Man which will be purchased as soon as they hit the shops.

No matter what they do, it's not going to make everyone happy. There will be people who are only interested in one particular monster, who might feel slighted if, (for example) they have to buy the Frankenstein set to get all the Dracula titles, or the other way around. Perhaps there's some other way they could have arranged them, but it gets messy. I don't need the extra discs, but I don't mind.

Amazon UK are asking an extortionate £36 for the anaglyph version of "Revenge of the Creature".

Bob! Great news on revenge of the creature! Congrats to everyone at the 3D Film Archive! How does this news affect the possible release of 'The Glass Web', 'Wings of a Hawk', 'Taza Son of Cochise'. I certainly can't hurt, right?

 

[Bob Furmanek]

Let NBCUniversal know you want to see those three in widescreen 3-D as well!

 

[mcash007]

What would be a good way to contact them?

 

[Bob Furmanek]

Social media: Facebook, Twitter, etc.

 

[3D Projectionist]

Not sure my blood pressure could cope with Glass Webb Bob but I'll give it a go. They all look great 3D film posters for sure!

And, if it's like the German transfer, it's unwatchable.
