Warner finally announcing some horror for Halloween! (1 Viewer)

[walter o]

You are right though, Warner Halloween releases are barebone, but I hope they gotten Carpenter for a commentary for SOMEONE'S WATCHING ME.

Unfortunately, Tom Weaver at the Classic Horror Film Board answered: "Not this year" to the above. All I can say is, Warner has been so great and reliable in recent years in releasing old classic horror titles that this comes as a huge disappointment.

 

[John Stell]

Yes, this is sad news regarding the 1930s/40s titles. I guess they need to do some more work on the transfers. I just wish they hadn't made the classic titles soud like such a certainty in February's chat.

 

[Bradley-E]

Universal probably did pony up extra $$$ for TIMECOP, or at least purchased the rights to the "title".

 

[Matt Harrison]

Made my day! I am psyched for Deadly Friend but being a horror buff, I will probably buy the set. Does anyone know if Warner is sitting on any slasher titles? I know of Night School for one and I wouldnt mind seeing a few slashers released.

 

[Michael Elliott]

They did release three "classic" horror titles earlier this month and a cult favorite in TROG so they did do something for classic horror fans this year. They haven't released many "current" horror titles the past two years so I guess it was their time.

 

[Mario Gauci]

Count me in among those disappointed by this lacklustre announcment...but, hell, with all the stuff Universal (or is that Best Buy?) and Fox are springing on us around Halloween time, I think it'd be churlish to complain very loudly.

 

[Jim_K]

Nothing much here I'm interested in picking up. Was really hoping for a Kongo/West of Zanzibar double feature on SD. Oh well.

Still keeping my fingers crossed for a Hammer Horror set for High Def. There's...........still..........time.

Someone mentioned dont be afraid of the dark, and bad ronald earlier in this thread.Im very confident that around this time next year, Warner will announce those.

 

[Joe Karlosi]

Well, this is true. I was glad to see TROG released, and I really wanted ATTACK OF THE 50 FT WOMAN for the longest time. Warner's still Numero Uno with me -- I guess I was overly excited due to the recent chat where it almost sounded like we'd get the "CLASSIC LEGENDS OF HORROR II" set. But FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE is a good catch.

 

[MielR]

....and still no word on "Dorian Gray" either, huh? Maybe they're saving that one for HD(?)

 

[Jeffrey Nelson]

I wish they were putting out FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE as a single release. I've no interest in any of the others, though I'm glad they are being released for the fans that want them.

 

[Joe Karlosi]

I believe they ARE putting these out separately -- aren't they? That's what I was lead to believe. 'Cause there's no way I'm buying the whole set.

 

[AlanBrom]

The release at DVD Drive-In CLEARLY states they are being sold as singles as well for $14.97 SRP.

 

[Josh Simpson]

Glad to hear about Dr. Giggles, even if it's not a great movie. Looks like it's time to unload the old Goodtimes disc on ebay.

 

[captainjoe]

I still have the Dr. Giggles letterboxed laserdisc so I'll be happy to finally upgrade

 

[Jon Hertzberg]

Artwork Added

 

[Kevin M]

Only in the farthest stretch of the word would you call that "Art".....YUCK!

 

[Ruz-El]

admittedly, thats some piss poor art right there. Still, if the price is right, I might give the collection a shot.

 

[Nick Graham]

I can finally retire my OAR LD of Dr. Giggles that I bought from Ken Crane's clearance sale! Huzzah!
