This isn't one of the Susan Hart's titles, is it? If not, I hope we can also get NOT OF THIS EARTH (1957) sometime down the road.

Yes. The spring of last year. Glad to see it's out.

No. It isn't one she owns. Thank goodness. She does own a few AIP ones that many have been hoping for release, but she refuses to allow them to be released on video. I am hoping for some others that aren't owned by Hart to get released soon: Blood Of Dracula, Teenage Caveman and The She Creature. I don't know about the status of a few others like The Brain Eaters, Voodoo Woman and The Undead. Night Of The Blood Beast seems mired in sub par public domain releases. That could use an upgraded blu ray transfer.

nice...I know that It Conquered the World, Amazing Collosal Man were released to BRD by KL. the other Sci-Fi titles would be on my list as well. on those currently are on DVDs in various levels of quality. Even the Larry Buchanan cheese fests deserve a facelift. Thanks

Other hard to find no budget wonders on my BRD hitlist are (1960) Cape Canaveral Monsters and (1964) the Creeping Terror (1965) Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster and of course is another 1965 classic Monster a Go-Go!!

Hey Capt., I just checked, KL never released ICTW or TACM.

 

[Capt D McMars]

My Bad, it was the monster that challenged the world viw KL and War of the Collassal Beast by Shout factory I was thinking of!!

 

[Capt D McMars]

Yes. The spring of last year. Glad to see it's out.

I was happy to see Attack of the Crab Monsters on BRD, but from what I'm seeing now is it's OOP? Got mine a while back, now they're going @ prices like some of the Twilight Time blu rays?!!!

 

[Peter Apruzzese]

Crab Monsters was a limited edition website-only release. Day the World Ended is the same.

Any chatter about the 1958 Crawling Eye with Forrest Tucker?

 

[Capt D McMars]

Glad I have these in my collection.

althought available on DVD with various grades of quality, Some effort should be made to upgrade these titles -

 

[TheSteig]

Any chatter about the 1958 Crawling Eye with Forrest Tucker?

Stuck with Wade Williams - Maybe Film Detective might have access to it as they have been releasing movies from his vaults

NONE of Susan Hart's films have made it to Blu-ray. We couldnt even get them on DVD in the USA. No Colossal Man, no It Conquered the World, no Saucer Men., and no Teenage Werewolves or Frankensteins
Invasion Saucer Men and The Amazing Colossal Man have a decent Italian DVD release. Teenage Werewolf has an import DVD as well.
Susan Hart = BAD for the home video market-holding out on some beloved titles that she thinks are worth $100,000+ for. Instead of people enjoying the films in HD, she'd rather keep them in her closet with mothballs !
