GUN CRAZY (1950) - WARNER ARCHIVE COLLECTION
Friday 20th April 2018 - posted by Samuel
For fans of the Warner Archive Collection, one of their next releases will be Gun Crazy which is coming to Blu-ray on an all new 2018 HD master on the 29th May.
When gun fancier Bart Tare sees Annie Laurie Starr’s sideshow sharpshooting act, he’s a dead-bang goner. He and she go together, as Bart ultimately says, “like guns and ammunition.” The two become bank robbers on the run, eluding roadblocks and roaring into movie history as one of the benchmark film-noir works. Joseph H. Lewis directs this ferocious thriller, selected for the National Film Registry and often cited as a forerunner to Bonnie and Clyde. Peggy Cummins and John Dall star, meeting in a sexually charged carny shooting contest and soon driven by impulses of violence and arousal they don’t fully understand. They’re young, foolish, doomed – and point blank in Gun Crazy’s unforgiving sights.
Extras include:
- Audio commentary with film-noir Specialist Glenn Erickson
- "Film-Noir: Bringing Darkness to Light" documentary (2006)

The village, soon to be blown sky-high, has been abandoned by its inhabitants and replaced with escapees from the local insane asylum.

Media Target will release giallo The Blade of the Ripper on to Blu-ray on the 18th April.
Julie Wardh's (Edwige Fenech) marriage is nearing the end. Together with her husband Neil (Alberto de Mendoza), an older stockbroker, she makes her way to Vienna, where important business appointments are pending. Arriving in her hometown, Julie meets her old friend Carol and meets heartthrob George (George Hilton) at a party. Julie can not stop her affection for George and sees in him far more than a trifling flirtation. George seems to be a new bright spot in Julie's life, away from the boring business and married life of her husband. While Julie and George enjoy their affair to the fullest, Julie's ex-lover Jean (Ivan Rassimov) unexpectedly turns up. Despite the dark past of both, Jean could never quite break away from Julie and courts them wherever possible. The niceness of Jean increases and the more gruesome thoughts of a sadomasochistic relationship return to Julie. At the same time, more and more pretty women in Vienna are killed by a masked serial killer with a razor. Who is the mysterious killer? Is it Jean? Julie's husband, who is freaking out because of his wife's infidelity? Or George, who wants to have Julie unrivaled for himself?

Wednesday 28th February 2018 - posted by Samuel
Vinegar Syndrome will release Star Time on Blu-ray on the 27th March 2018.
Henry Pinkle (Michael St. Gerard) lives for television. This world of make-believe consumes his every waking moment. But when his favorite show is canceled, Henry is driven over the edge and decides to commit suicide. Then he meets Sam Bones, a mysterious agent who promises Henry happiness and stardom – if he follows his instructions, engulfing Henry in an increasingly downward spiral of brutality and murder…
Hailed by The LA Times as “an impressively ambitious and potent first feature,” Alexander Cassini’s STAR TIME is an angst-ridden study of violent psychosis and media obsession, pronounced by surrealist visuals and gory violence. Co-starring John P. Ryan (IT’S ALIVE) and Maureen Teefy (FAME), Vinegar Syndrome presents this unique art-house horror film on Blu-ray, newly restored from its original 35mm camera negative and presented in its never-before-on-home-video original director’s cut.
• Newly scanned and restored in 2k from 35mm original camera negative
• Commentary track with director Alexander Cassini

2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY COMING TO UHD
Tuesday 27th February 2018 - posted by Samuel
Warner Home Video will release the Stanley Kubrick classic 2001: A Space Odyssey on to UHD at an unconfirmed date.
Confirming that art and commerce can co-exist, 2001: A Space Odyssey was the biggest box-office hit of 1968, remains the greatest science fiction film yet made and is among the most revolutionary, challenging and debated work of the 20th century. It begins within a pre-historic age. A black monolith uplifts the intelligence of a group of apes on the African plains. The most famous edit in cinema introduces the 21st century, and after a second monolith is found on the moon a mission is launched to Jupiter. On the spacecraft are Bowman (Keir Dullea) and Poole (Gary Lockwood), along with the most famous computer in fiction, HAL. Their adventure will be, as per the original title, a "journey beyond the stars". Written by science fiction visionary Arthur C Clarke and Stanley Kubrick, 2001 elevated the SF film to entirely new levels, being rigorously constructed with a story on the most epic of scales.
Although no date is yet confirmed, you can still pre-order this title HERE.
THE DAM BUSTERS RECEIVES NEW RESTORATION
Tuesday 27th February 2018 - posted by Samuel
Studio Canal have announced a brand new 4K restoration of classic feature The Dam Busters for 4th June 2018.
A much-loved British classic, Michael Anderson’s 1955 drama captures the tension and bravery of an audacious raid on the centre of Nazi Germany’s industrial complex and the quintessentially English combination of inventiveness and dogged determination.
Split into two distinct sections, the film deals first with the fraught, but the ultimately successful development of a new bomb, by Dr. Barnes N. Wallis(Michael Redgrave). The second deals with the mission itself during the British raid on the Ruhr Dams, and its associated costs for the enemy and for the British airmen.
Adapted by R.C. Sherriff from Paul Brickhill’s book “Enemy Coast Ahead” and featuring superlative special effects photography by Gilbert Taylor (to say nothing of Eric Coates’ stirring theme tune), The Dam Busters was Britain’s biggest box office success of 1955.
Includes a 64 page booklet with brand new essays, and photographs, plus a rare print of an aerial photograph of the Mohne dam post raid, signed by the original 617 squadron.
