A box set of the jaw-dropping Taiwanese WWII period action-comedy trilogy of GOLDEN QUEENS COMMANDO, PINK FORCE COMMANDO, and FANTASY MISSION FORCE.

An all-region STRAY CAT ROCK set like the one released overseas, only with English subs.

I'm really hoping the restored prints of 'The Prowler' and 'Nightfall' that have been making the rounds means we're getting DVD reissues of those soon. Anyone have word? Anderson? Anyone?

Are you talking about the 80's slasher "The Prowler"? If so, Blue Underground is releasing the blu-ray of it on July 27th.

Zoltan Korda's The Drum.

Wonderful adventure pic featuring Sabu and the legendary Roger Livesey, one scene involves the chivalrous Livesey letting loose with a gatling gun, a glourious sight indeed!

Filmfour shows a fine print of the film on a regular basis but where's the fucking DVD!!!

Possibly too "regional" but Clearcut -- a kick in the ass for these apathetic, impotently angry times.

Clearcut is awesome and Graham Greene kicks ten kinds of ass in it. Richly deserving of Criterion treatment.

Oh, and I've never even been to Canada.

That's good -- you've missed the disappointment where you find out that our trees are made of naugahyde, the natives are Taiwanese tourists and the whole country is basically a soundstage at Bridge Studios.

And yes, it's hard to watch the movie and think of the ... mild? ... stuff the cast has done since.

Don't even get me started on "Boy Meets World." I'm so pissed I can't watch the blossoming of the relationship between Corey and Mr. Feeney...I mean...Topanga.

The Incident. (1967)

Hardcore. Tony Musante and Martin Sheen play two sadistic yobs that get bored one Sunday Night/Monday Morning after stealing and severely beating(killing?) a passerby, decide to jump on the subway and terrorize the passengers (a real hot pot of characters). The actors all deliver the goods, a young Beau Bridges excels but the film belongs to Musante, who's on another level altogether.

A challenging film that deserves a DVD release and "classic" status. It's ridiculous that it has neither of the two.

I'm sorry that The Fortune is still not on R1 DVD (our region-free player conked out recently). That was maybe the hardest I have ever laughed in a theater at a movie that was neither Python or the Marxes.

The one that really kills me, though, is a TV series: The Chris Isaak Show. Imaginative, often hysterically funny (Isaak and drummer Kenny Johnson are a great comic team, with Isaak a natural straight man, and Johnson a wonderful deadpan comic), and touching on topics that were often as adult as they were loopy. Sadly, getting music clearances from all the guest stars will never happen.

I am far too lazy to go through this entire thread and this bears repeating anyway if it has already been bemoaned in its abscence: Big Time with Tom Waits. Waits is a seminal musician from the past 30 years or more and seeing him on grainy ass youtube footage is whack. A cleaned up release of this and some footage of his Glitter and Doom show need to be unleashed on the public ASAP. Sure I have my memories of the Birmingham stop of Glitter and Doom but I'd love some angles of the performance that extended beyond the nose bleed section my dad and I were in. And Big Time...well, Big Time is just utterly bizarre goodness in a Waitsian way. Kinda the antithesis of Stop Making Sense. And you haven't lived until you seen Waits performing 9th and Hennepin on top of a building underneath an umbrella that's on fire. THe image just stays with you, man.

I'm finding that there are waaaay too many old Hanna-Barbera cartoons to mention. I know they get Boomerang play, but I want some Quickdraw McGraw on DVD.

As with Pretty Maids, Green Slime is a "newly remastered" Warner Archive release, so is somewhat pricey at $25.

WB Archive has Thundarr, Josie in Outer Space, Pirates of DW, and Addams Family. So it's a start.

That WB Archive is quite a racket but I might shell out for GREEN SLIME. Love that flick.

Darkmite8, Thundarr The Barbarian is by...Ruby Spears. The packaging holding the discs are terrible. You could inadvertantly damage one disk while removing another. it is a flipper, with...4 disks connected to the same piece of plastic. Thundarr, is of course...Awesome!

"GIDEONS CROSSING", a show based on a book by a friend of my moms, and staring Andre Brauer as well as featuring an early performance by Rhoda 'Eden Sinclaire' Mitra

Over all, a good medical show that was ahead of it's time... And still is not on DVD

Alan Rudolph's underrated paranoia thriller Endangered Species just hit the Warner Archive.

Also his odd supernatural romance Made In Heaven.

On Jan 10, the 1994-2003 Columbo Mystery Movies come to DVD: http://www.amazon.com/Columbo-Mystery-Movie-Collection-1994-2003/dp/B005TFVM0I/ref=pd_cp_mov_1

 

My memories of these are pretty sketchy. I remember one with Fisher Stevens, one where Columbo fakes his death, one where Columbo fakes his wife's death. They were always entertaining though.
