movies that need a dvd release

[tsmooth31]

i think we may have had a topic like this before, im not sure tho and cant find it if we did, anyway tho what are some movies you really wish would get a dvd release

for me it would be mosquito and ticks, 2 cheesy movies(im sure you can guess what they are about) that i have seen several times on scifi and other channels growing up, its really about time they put them on dvd

[shunty]

i've wanted to see ticks for some time as well as Private Parts, Night School, The Pit and the Pendulum (or on blu-ray)

The UNCUT versions of all the Friday the 13th movies. Just do it, you greedy Nazi bastards at Paramount Studios!

I Madman --For a slasher made in 1989, it's very original, and actually good. Not many people have seen, or heard of it though.

Brain Donors --Screwball comedy from 1992, starring John "Nobody-Fucks-With-the-Jesus" Turturro. It's a remake of the Marx Bros, "A Night At the Opera." Very underrated film.

I like John Turturro. He's a good actor.

By the way, some of the movies mentioned on here might be on fleshwoundvideo.com

That's a great website when it comes to buying rare DVD's. They're fairly cheap, too.

The number one where-the-hell-is-it movie not yet on DVD is Dario Argento's Four Flies on Grey Velvet

John McNaughton's quite good - The Borrower (1988)

Stuart Gordon's Pit and the Pendulum (1990) needs a single-disc, non-boxset region 1 release. As does Demonic Toys.

Then, of course - The Town That Dreaded Sundown. And speaking of towns, Ghost Town needs a DVD as well.



And there are a ton of movies that have gone out-of-print that need to be re-released:

The Beyond
Schlock
There's Nothing Out There
Munchies
Not of This Earth
Possession



And DVD editions that really should be released:

Sleepaway Camp has never been released Uncut
Scream (1996) has never been released Uncut
Deranged (1973, aka- Confessions of a Necrophile) has never been released Uncut

Child's Play needs a Special Edition
Fright Night needs a Special Edition
Pumpkinhead needs a Special Edition

Return of the Living Dead has never been released with all the deleted scenes (I'm told there's almost AN HOUR of stuff deleted from that movie). Then, Return of the Living Dead III has never been released on DVD Uncut. All of Lionsgate's awful Double Feature DVD's for Prom Night III and IV, the Howling sequels, and the Waxwork movies suck and should be re-released.

Angus. Surprisingly funny movie with a good message.

If I try to think of non-horror movies and TV-movies that need a DVD release... I could be talking forever.

laz your a fan of demonic toys??

i was just looking on the boxset with dollman the other day

[lazario]

I haven't seen the movie since 1994. So I can't say. But I would buy the damn thing if it ever came out on single-disc DVD, not in a boxset that costs 40, 45 bucks and you only get 2 or 3 movies. Frig - for that price, you can get Anchor Bay's Mario Bava boxsets with 7 movies! And those boxes went down to about 30-35!

[tsmooth31]

well cduniverse had the demonic toys box set for like 27$$ so i was thnking about getting it

[lazario]

That's still too much. And I don't care about sequels, prequels, tie-ins, toys, and whatnot. I just want Demonic Toys in a single-disc. I don't know why the hell they never released that.

[tsmooth31]

its the same thing with puppet master tho, another charles band movie which is even more well known, i believe they have some rare dvd's but i would like to be able to just get puppet master on dvd, and maybe some sequels

Full Moon shares its' catalog with a company called Cult. Cult released a lot of their movies (Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama, Assault of the Killer Bimbos, Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death, Slave Girls from Beyond Infinity, and all of their newer 90's movies which are so weird I've lost track of their names). But about half of the movies never turned up on DVD until these new boxsets that are so overpriced it's insane! Some of those movies I'd be interested in buying (especially Arcade, Bad Channels, Demonic Toys, and Stuart Gordon's Pit and the Pendulum). Though to this day, they've still never released Shrunken Heads. Which is funny because some of the music was composed by either Danny Elfman or his brother.

[tsmooth31]

yea i was just looking at the full moon website the other day, the thing i dont understand is why they are realeasing so many newer movies on DVD, why not take time go back and put some of the older ones on DVD..although the full moon website charges ridiculous prices, you can find many of there box sets and dvd's much cheaper other places

[lazario]

Maybe it's a Rights issue or something. Some companies sell portions of their libraries to other companies to release...

Don't know exactly.
