edit: subj line formerly - "The DVD Wish List Game!"

Over at Latarnia in this thread (http://p210.ezboard.com/Two-More-Mill-Creek-50-Movie-Packs/fthelatarniaforumsfrm10.showMessage?topicID=518.topic) the topic of Mill Creek 50 movie packs got turned around to 50 movie pack wish lists.  An interesting quandry.  There's hundreds of movies out there that have yet to see a proper DVD release and hundreds more with "shady" releases.  So many titles to wish for yet. .

If you could take over one of the numerous "shady" labels for a day and had the ability to release any title you wanted, I mean ANYTHING, what PD "wink wink, nudge nudge" movies would you release?

I'll start. (Cover art isn't required but if you think you can create a fun one then go for it!)  How about. .

Ozzymandias has spoken!!!

The Sorceress (1982)

This is a list of films that have a DVD release, but the image quality isn't as good as it should be..

Starcrash
Battle Beyond the Stars
Flight to Mars

Wouldn't you buy it?  I would!

 :cheers:

I'd buy that! Classic Media is doing a great job with the Godzilla titles.

My list would be Dubbed versions of Shaw Brothers Classics esp Venom Mob flicks.

They've finally released The Perils of Gwendoline in the Land of the Yik Yaks and my copy of Flash Gordon (1980 version) is winding its way through the package delivery universe so I'm a happy camper at the moment.

How can you be happy when movies like. . .

Lots more, but these are the only ones that come to mind that haven't been mentioned already.

Actually, some of the John Waters movies like MONDO TRASHO and MULTIPLE MANIACS are long overdue.  And I'd like to see CRAZY JOE (not to be confused with just plain JOE) starring Peter Boyle.

Unless it was a flick with a similar title the scan I used to photoshop the "When Women Had Tails" was a cover, I am fairly certain, for this very movie.

*checking HD*

I do not believe it has a legitimate DVD release.  This is the film:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052374/

Nevermind.  It had "fabulous journey" (to the Center of the Earth) in the title, not "fabulous world" (of Jules Verne).  I  :lookingup: at myself.

This is a fantasy wish,right? OK-
THE HEAD OF JANUS (1920) with Conrad Veidt and...yes...thats right...Bela Lugosi!
LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT-the lost Tod Browning / Chaney classic.
the WIZARD-lost silent with Gustav(SPARROWS) Von Seyfrritiz (I know I spelled that wrong...)
The MAGIGIAN-directed by Rex Ingram and starring Paul Weagner.
The GOLEM and the BALLARINA (1917) with Paul again.
LOCK UP YOUR DAUGHTERS (195?) Lost Lugosi compilation made in England....some sources ay Bela narrates onscreen...others say off screen. Nevertheless...he does call this film his 'obituary'.

In a manner of speaking, so long as it's a real movie.

ie: Yeah for THEDA BARA'S CLEOPATRA, but nay for FLESH GORDON - INVASION OF THE LEZBOTS; which exists only in my fevered imagination.   :wink:

Good topic. :smile:

Let's see if I could run Mill Creek for a day I would release a 50 pack compilation called the Best of Up All Night.

Which would include 50 of my favorite films that I use to watch on USA Up All Night.

41 Return Of The Killer Tomatoes
42 Elvira Mistress Of The Dark
43 Babewatch: The Forbidden Parody
44 School Spirit
45 Recruits
46 C.H.U.D. II: Bud The C.H.U.D.
47 Bikini Summer
48 Chopping Mall
49 Transylvania 6-5000
50 Joysticks

I think there are some complicated music rights (or something) holding these up, particularly with MONDO TRASHO. Or could it be the world is still not ready for Lobstora and the "Puke Eater"?

Raffine:  Yeah, MONDO TRASHO did have a lot of vintage 1950s music on the soundtrack.  Of course, it sounded like Waters was holding a microphone up to a hi-fi speaker and playing an old, scratched 45 . . .

While the 50 movie packs have made a number of films accessible, if in less than steller video releases, that aren't otherwise available there's still quite a few movies that remain untouched by the PD labels.  And, like the John Waters movies, it's a mystery why they aren't on DVD.  For example my (current) ultimate 80s era sci-fi Double Feature would be this....



These movies are loooong overdue for R1 releases.

I agree, especially "Galaxy of Terror."

Can I be your friend  :smile:?

D'oh!  I should know better than to trust Netflix when they say it's out of print.  Finally, I can purge my libido!
