Re-Connected February , 2024: Announcements and check-in with Dr. Will Dodson!!

Sign up for nothing. Hey, hey, and welcome to Thursday. It is the first of the month. We don't get to do this on the actual first very often, but because it's the first of the month, that means Will is here. Will is going through a lot of sickness in the house tonight, So bear with the voice. At some point, probably either way, Will thank you for doing this, even though you feel like absolute death. I'm feeling a little bit better, but I'm still death adjacent.

You know. I've always been the kind of fellow that pushes through when you get get the ailments, but this one put me on my ass for several days. And now of course it's working its way through the rest of the family. Yeah, yeah, yeah, among my many regrets. Paul just posted realized last week. I have a book of Will Dodson's on my shelves and about years ago, secondhand, all about cult film and it comes with

some nice heartguards. I know that book that's so that movie. It's called cult Films, and it was a I was a what do you call it, a hired hand, hired gun to write that short history of cult films for this British company that described it as like the kind of book that high schoolers and intro to film people would read. And they insisted that it would be sold at like petrol stations, like next to the Maxim magazines and stuff, and that was it was around the time that that was Maxim time.

You know, this is like twenty six seven o eight, and I wrote three books for this company. I wrote one on Hollywood musicals in which the editor inserted a typo that turned Tin pan Alley into tim pan Alley. So I'm still pissed about that, and said Tim Allen, it could have been worried. And then the third one I wrote on Westerns, they never paid me for. They still owe me like three grand, but they went bankrupt and then some accountant did an audit and was like, well, they only

owe you three grand. That's not enough for us to for us to uh pursue legal matters. So yikes, forget about it, and I'm like three grand, that's well. But anyway, the Cult Films one, I think was the best seller. So that's that's really cool that that somebody's got it. Oh, Josephine hit Now, I'm sorry he took commandeer of the microphone. But Josephine de Marco hit on the most important news of the week. Happy birthday, Ryan, Thank you, thank you, thank you. How

old are you? How old? I am super old compared to you. I'm a ripe old age of thirty seven now in a row in a row. That's the only reason you wanted me to say that. And I put it right up on the tee and I wanted it to be knocked out of the park. That remains, to this day, the only Kevin Smith joke that has ever made me laugh. I don't get that either way. I should highlight. Dustin says, Happy birthday week, Ryan, and big and rats on the tear Vision news. So excited for you. Yes, we're

gonna talk about that later tonight. Thank you so much, Dustin for that little donation. Appreciate everybody. Since we're talking about birthday stuff. I've not told Will about this. I kind of wanted this to be a surprise. I'm gonna see if I can make this show up better on screen. My most prized gift, because my wife is incredibly thoughtful, is going up on the wall behind us soon, but I wanted to show it here. She

bought I was a metal sign for someone's favorite Productions. Oh it's misspelled though, Yeah it's not anyway. I'm stoked on that and it'll be up on the wall behind us soon. That is awesome. We had Craig pointed out that carries off the wall. Yes, swapped that out right before we went live tonight for the coaster. But the big thing, the room has been kind of cleaned. I had my first in person interview this week, and I had to scram to make this so much easier for somebody to come in

here. I had a genuine like upper B list celebrity in my movie room this week. Uh, interview for that will be going up in just a couple of weeks. So yeah, see that. Then Ventor of Concrete, Uh yeah, it was. It was a very heavy time. It was interesting. Let's get some pickups. I showed the sign what else you got coming in this week? Pickups? Well, my big Vinegar Syndrome box came

in, so the subscription and the subscription and stuff from the sale. Oh. I have to respond to Stan Geezi who just downloaded the essay the de mythologizing of the Texas chainsaw massacre. I want to highlight that I didn't write that essay. That essay was written by my late mentor, Jeff Jeski, and I did write the introduction to it. He passed away and we that essay had been unpublished and we got it published in the Monstrom Journal of Horror

Studies. And it's a great essay about the Chainsaw remake and what it kind of meant in context with the original. Jeff Jessky was a great guy. So stand thanks for downloaded, and I hope you enjoyed the essay. Until like my collection, I uh so, I've been so one thing. Well, I got a bunch more Warner archive stuff to highlight. Big fan of Clarence Brown's Anna Christie. Wait didn't I share that last time? Maybe?

Shit? Well, now I'm confused. Along the same lines of artistic quality, our old friend Bruce Campbell and Sean ESAs pretty fun movie Fritz Lane's You and Me. I'm pretty excited about due a little upgrade. I have the old twilight time of Robert Wise's Audrey Rose and now now I have the arrow version, which pretty cute. And then this just came in on everybody who's Anybody's a big fan of Dorothy Arsner, so I got her Christopher Strong,

which is one of the first starring roles for Audrey Hepburn. And I've been on a Karen Kusama kick lately, and this was kind of inexplicably out of print, but I got a kind of cheap copy of the eBay of Destroyer Nicole Kidman. Now now that I've done that, I'll go ahead and say you're welcome, because I'm sure four k will be announced minutes before you share

the next one. We got a fun question. Josephine wants to know, do we know of any celebrities, actors, anybody famous that shares our birthdays? I know one that I share. I don't know. Go ahead and al Pacino nice, I've got we got the awls, I've got Alan Alda. I also, I always laughed when I was, you know, like fifteen sixteen because I had boy bands were all celebrating on the same day. I had Nick Carter and Joey Fatone on my birthday. Oh rest in peace

to his brother, Oh other Carter. Oh I'm in Joey. She's still I thought he Nope, still very much alive. Okay, So the so the comment was both wrong and tasteless. Yeah, kind of shoot. John Stump says he's got Kurt Russell. That's a good one. Oh hell yeah, that's a good one. Jennifer Connelly with Dustin, Brian Depalmer and Moby for Craig nice Man, paulm was a pretty good one. Steve Perry from Journey and DJ Chazy, Chad oh Man, and then of course John's got

Pamela Anderson loved that other pickups. I got a trade in. I traded for that new Keno Cult four K of Clyde Barker's Underworld I got. Let me know what you think of it, because you know, I saw that on DVD and it's it's like a BBC mini series, so it's not like super a budget or anything. And I was told that it's awful, and that's why I traded for it. I did not want to pay full price for it. I mean, it's it's in freasonably entertaining. I just can't

understand, like it's like making a four K out of bloodsucking freaks. You know, it's like it doesn't look good already. Blood sucking brings looks pretty good in four K though, that's the funny thing. I haven't watched it yeah, but I got it. Next up is a disc that I worked on last year, thin from Stephen King. This is the Screen Factory release. There's not a lot of information about this out there. Shout did not really advertise a new scan. They didn't advertise the special features as good as

they should have. So I will say, if you have the previous Olive release, this is a massive step up. That previous Olive release looked pretty

poor, and this looks really good. I know that there was some questions about the color timing previously because there's a couple scenes, like there's a scene in a dark study and a guy shines a light in his face to reveal the cursed face, and it's supposed to be this dramatic thing, but they've always colored it so bright that it's just like, let's shine a little bit brighter of a light on somebody that you could already see for the rest of

the scene, So it's not dramatic at all. They didn't fix any of that, which I didn't expect them to. It's not like they've they've got somebody sitting here to regrade it. That was from the original, you know, the way that they looked at it at least either way did want to say, this looks genuinely great. This should have been a four K. When we were working on this, it sounded like it was going to be a four K. No idea why it's not. It looks good enough,

it probably should have been. And then the extras they got a new audio commentary on this with Lee Gambon, who is the producer out of Australia that I've worked with a few times, and Aaron Dryes is with him. Really great commentary. And then the interviews. I'm a little biased, but they're really great interviews. We got Tom Holland in there, who is he was just celebrating his eightieth birthday. He muses on that for a little while.

We've got Lucida Jenny, who is the wife, of course of Bill Moseley, and she talks about going to cons with him and bringing a piece of the Thinner Pie just as a little prop to share with everybody. And then one that I always love is a special effects artist, and Vince Guastini is in this, and he was still fairly new when he did Thinner. But for those that have seen this before, this movie has some pretty great effects for its time. This could have looked way worse, and the fact that

he was just kind of brought up through other people supporting him. It's a really fun story, really interesting interview. Hope you check it out. It is a little expensive at screen Factory. It'll be pricey for a while, wait to get it out of sale unless you're die hard about the slips. But it's a good disc I promised. I feel like they missed a great

marketing opportunity or merch opportunity. Put it in le thin case. Well, I was going the opposite direction I would have put you remember when tennis shoes had the pump it up, Yeah, so you can like this got a little plastic layer that should pump up and then it deflates. Well, speaking of deflating, what Screen Factory did is they deflated and gave us the cheap o Eco cases, unfortunately on a premium collector's edition like Thinder so thinner.

Yeah, no idea why that happened, but they must be thinning out the budget. Pardon the fun there. And then they got some good announcements this week, as we'll say, so I don't well go ahead. Then the last thing Infra review from Imprint is one that this like already might be close to one of the most important box sets of the year for those that have

not thought about getting this Sydney Limit Volume one. The stuff in this I mean Pawnbroker, The Group, The Deadly Fair, Child's Play, The Offense, Cirpaco, great discs, lots of special features in there, and then of course it's imprint, so when you take that off, they've got a single case for everything. There's lots of love applied to all of these. You got original art years on everything. If you don't mind losing the shelf

space, these are some of the best in the game. I do admit it does kind of stink to put one of these on the shelf when it's six discs and it takes up the space of nine films. But yeah, this is this is a legendary release and you should absolutely absolutely keep your eye out for it. Yeah, that's a pretty good pickup. You got a bunch of other stuff to share first, I'm gonna tee you up for one. There is a link for a trailer in the description below. Open that

up in a new tab and after the show go watch that trailer. Will what's that trailer for? Mad, a new documentary from Disney about One Look. I won't go too far into my My sister is the editor. It is premiering on the first night of the Santa Barbara Film Festival, and I've talked about it before on the channel. It'll be coming to Disney's streaming soon. Oh yeah, stands Met Georgia. Yeah, my sister is a great editor. I say that completely unbiased. In fact, we'll probably mention some

of her other editing work at some point in the near future. But the movie is great. It's a really impressive film. You know, to call it a documentary really doesn't do it justice because it really pushes the form in

interesting ways. And the story is really really compelling about a young Nigerian boy whose video YouTube video goes viral of her Facebook video something some kind of social media video goes viral of him ballet dancing in the streets, and he eventually wins a scholarship to a British ballet school, and so it kind of follows his life and his family's life. So classic Dods and nipotism. So I hope it will go the other way. Actually, she's in Hollywood, California.

She's the one with the coattails. I'm sitting in a rental. Oh man, a rental that you have to work in the shed. Yeah, I'm probably gonna have to pay for putting up that painting. All right. What else is going on? Hmm, you've got other stuff you wanted to share? Oh man, I got some stories to tell you. You know, last time we were sharing our favorite things that happened in the year.

Yeah, and so one of the things I talked about was meeting this Starbucks woman in the airport who recognized my full Moon hoodie and started talking to me about like deeper cut full Moon films. Well, don't you know, I'm not a Starbucks person, you know, But don't you know I'm about to go home one day. I've had a long day teaching, kind of wiped

out. Need a little jolt before I hit the hit the interstate. So I pull through a Starbucks drive drive through order my uh my large coffee, and I get to pay, and of course I'm wearing my full Moon hood hoodie because that's like the only clothes I have. And the guy hands me in my coffee. He's like, oh, full moon man. Cool. I'm like, oh yeah, this is happening again, and he goes, uh, he goes, Richard Band is amazing. I was like, how

many times does that happen? Somebody's gonna come at you and be like, you know what I really like about Full Moon movies? The composing music, you know, and music is great. Richard Ben's a great composer. You know, I did a reanimator all this other great stuff. And so that's two times in a row. I'll run into a Starbucks person who's been like a Full Moon super fan and that's been really nice. I don't know if it's part of stars the new employee training to watch Full Moon movies. So

that's uh, that's that's a story. The saga continues with Starbucks and Full Moon. Then yeah, that's great. So we've we've been working on a ton of stuff. Uh, there's a lot that we would love to share. Some stuff we're gonna talk about tonight. We're gonna give a little more details on one of the releases that got announced tonight. It has been a busy couple of weeks and uh, there's a lot that is coming out in the next couple of months. And we've been saying for months like hey,

We've worked on this many releases and everybody's like Spider Labyrinth. That's the only one that's been out since uh, you know, full of December. Speaking of Spider Labyrinth, O, there's a funny story for you. Uh anyways from you got it just a second, just a second. From September to like November, we did a bunch of stuff and they're all about to get announced. Anyways, go ahead, Will no, Yeah, Spider Laven story

for you. I h I U saw on Amazon? Or the first review on amazon dot com of the Spider eleventh four K was posted have you seen it? No? Even though it has not been released yet on Amazon. That's the best one. It's a five star review, goes into you know, all the detail. Clearly the person ordered it from Severn Direct because they they had the knowledge. Five star review talks about the audio video visual presentation, talks about all the great interviews, and then at the end it says

the audio commentary track is adequate. Adequate, That's what I'm hoping for. All right, what a wonderful, lengthy review. Man. All right, Will, what's next up on your docket? What do you mean, don't you You've got like nineteen things you want to talk about tonight? Oh,

I thought they'd come organically in the conversation. Oh. I did have something funny happen on social media, which, as you know, I'm still new to you remember that old Saturnate Live sketch with Phil Hartman Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer. It's kind of but uh, you know, I don't. I don't. I have a goal of like posting one thing a day on Twitter and Instagram, and I've failed miserably. But I I did post maybe a couple of weeks ago, when what's the new movie fun City is putting out? Uh?

Handgun, Handgun? Yeah, And I'm really excited about it because Erica Schultz's and Chris O'Neil to a commentary and it's a movie I've been wanting to see for a long time. So I did a little post like, oh, it's so great, you know. I tagged fun City, I tagged Erica and Chris. And I don't get many likes. People. Some people see my tweets like if it says like one hundred people saw the tweet, I'm like, wow, I've never had more than like ten or fifteen likes.

This one gets like thirty some likes. I'm like, wow, I'm really helping fun Cities sell units. And then I look at who just how of curiousity? I'm like, well, who's liking? It's probably some people from the disconnected community. It's all Japanese porn stars, and I don't know how that happened. Are they real? I think? Are are Japanese porn stars? Like now I really want to see a handgun? Or is it bots? Or or like is this film gonna be like the best selling fun

City in in the Japanese porn star circles. It's all an algorithm. I just really want to know what you were searching for before that. Well, I want to know what they were searching for. I think, in fact, I think some of their coworkers might wonder what they're searching for as well. David lash just did to hear something about Japanese porn stars. What did I miss? Everything? All Right, enough of our prelude. As we've been here for twenty five minutes. We got a lot of stuff to talk

about tonight. Are we ready? Are we supposed to talk about recent watches? Fuck? There's so much to go over. God, yeah, nobody cares what I care? Because we were talking about seven. I watched that Cemetery Man four K this week, first time I've seen the movie ever, never got to see it before. I'd seen a couple of clips. Uh, it's it's pretty great. It's a fun movie. The humor really landed with me. Everything's shitty, that's not shy, sleep Eli Cortez says,

why Shout Studio selling a four K digital Downloadtle Labyrinth? Are they going to release it soon to disc? Not necessarily. They put out a press release recently saying that they got the rights to this and to I think Dark Crystal and like three or four other things. Uh does not guarantee that they're putting them on disc or anything, but uh, they've got the digital rights. When when reason watches? What else you want to talk about recent one?

I have a you know, you mentioned how big the imprint box sets are, and it reminded me of a dilemma that I have. I was very excited a few weeks back when here and announce the four K of I Am Cuba. Oh, yeah, that epic documentary. But I have a DVD edition of I Am Cuba that comes in a cigar box right. Oh wow, that is freaking m h it's freaking cool. Right yeah, I'm like, okay, well this, you know, I can part with it, maybe make some money on eBay because it's it's you know, it's shaped real

weird and it's hard to hard to do. But and the and the Criterion has all the same extras except Disc three, a film about Mikhail Klotov, the director, this two hour documentary that's really great about his whole career. And so what am I gonna do? I gotta keep. I gotta keep the damn cigar box. Can you can you fit the digipack from Criterion in the cigar box? Though I do not disrupt the integrity of displays, I get it. Any other recent watches for you? Yeah, I watched a

lot. Actually you didn't even mention one. Uh so here's all the stuff I watched recently. I'll just pick a few. I'll just pick a few. I'll pick a few. So I saw Lady Whirlwind Angela mal Nice, which is fun, not not a great film, but fun. Great extras, the interviews with Angela mal and her son, three commentaries. You have to get to the third commentary before you even get to Sam Deagan. Holy cow. Well, here's a movie that I hadn't seen a long time,

and I watched just to see if it held up. And my gosh, it does the Towering Inferno against all you know, all logic works on every level, Like you care about the characters even though they're completely one dimensional, You buy the special effects even though they're totally old, and you sit through a three hour movie without getting bored. Once it's it's amazing. So I was pretty excited about that one. Then I saw a couple of movies that

were boring. Unfortunately, maybe I'll skip those. I'll give a If you haven't seen Deaf Crocodiles Pie Piper, which somehow I got Obviously I got it late because there's no slip right. I got it late off the OCN website before I started buying from Death Crocodile Direct, which is what I do now. But I hadn't seen it yet. Those just on a watch pile. I haven't watched it yet. This ship's a work of staggering, staggering and monumental genius. I want I want listeners to know that, even though it

sounds like I'm slurring, I'm doing dry January. I started late this and my commemorative Joe Bob Briggs last is water. Yeah, pot Piper was amazing. Also saw keeping the Deaf Crocodile thing going. I saw the tzarrow the tail of our saltan, which is really cool, really cool. I must say one more, one more maybe as you want, my friend. Oh, here's a cool one john Ford movie from Eureka two Road together Richard Widmark. And this is the first Jimmy Stewart appearance in john Ford and he plays

an as soul. Will are you seeing this? Dustin says, I have an extra slip of the Pied Piper. I can send it to you if you want. Well, I ain't gonna I'm not gonna say no. That's cool things wood he Strode. I always, even if what he Strode's in a movie for only a second, I always want to see it. So that one was a lot of fun. Not so fun. But I'm glad I saw it. I didn't I never realized, you know, when I worked in the video store in the nineties, I had to put this particular

movie away all the time, and I never watched it. Palmetto Yeah, Elizabeth Shu, Willie Harrelson. I had never realized that Volker Schlndorf directed it, so I was like, oh, I went on saying anything. So I picked it up, and it's not very good. It's okay, I think it. I think it UH suffers from the fate that a lot of the Neo nors UH suffer from, which is, you know, part of what makes the original noir films so interesting and compelling is the restrictions the production

code. They couldn't show or say anything and had to get around it and with implication and ambiguities. But the Neon wors just show everything, and and Palmetta just yeah, it just didn't work great for me. It was okay, I'm glad I saw it. I'll stop. Thanks. Sandro As a question, Hello all, any news on the Coffin Joe set. Do we know if they fixed the air and mailed them out to retailers if retailer still has a copy, will Errow send out the fixed fixed discs? They have

not sent out fixed That's hard to say back to back. Four times they've not sent out fixed discs to retailers, and they will not send them to retailers until they've repackaged everything if if you do get it from a retailer now you can you can try to get that fixed disc by going and plying through their random Placement disc program that they have right now, which I still need to sign up for. I keep forgetting. I just ordered the Coffin Joe

set, so it's gonna be off messed up. One of the movies is not gonna have special features after the thirty third minute. It's not gonna have special features after that special features. Captions, Sorry, captions. I have special features on the brain like most of my life. I need I need this, I need the captions. How well, Yes, as Chris says, the Coffin Joe said is down to seventy bucks on Amazon right now, and yes they are selling with the faulty disc if they even have them in

stock. I mean, it's Amazon. They could just not send you out anything until they get a fixed one, or they cancel your order, because that does happen. Huh. Now are we ready for some announcements? Do you see anything? Did I see anything? I watched what I already talked about? Oh? You already talked about recent watching. I thought you did pickups. No, I talked about cemetery. Man. Oh that was it, and then I was it. I don't get time to watch everything because

I am doing a lot. Let's talk about some announcements of things that I want to buy and won't be able to watch. First up, April twenty third, Arrow is releasing on Blu Ray, The Scarface Mob from nineteen fifty nine, starting a month of a lot of oldies for Arrow. Like usually they have at least one or two big mainstream things coming out there, but this month is is really heavily focused on some older films. This was coming in the US and Canada, and this was originally conceived as a two part

TV pilot. This is a gritty and thrilling dramatization of Elliot Nessa's account of his hunt for ruthless gangster al Capone. And this is going to have a few things. We got a new visual essay on the film and the career of director film Carlson by David Cairns. We've got a brand new video essay on the career of Elliot ness and his depictions on film, including this film

by Philip Kemp. We've got a gallery of original posters, some reversible sleeves, postcards, all that good old Aero stuff that they always send out. How do you feel about this one, sir? You know they only indicted al Capone once? Oh really, it's a line in a Trump speech talk about how he's been indicted three times Capone once. Wow. Yeah, I'm

not familiar with this. Looks interesting. I've never heard of it. Next title, April thirtieth in the US and Canada is one that will is going to wax poetic on the ten Star from nineteen fifty seven from Anthony Mann.

This one is going to have a new audio commentary by Toby Rohane and Knew, a pre sation of the film by Neil Signard, new interview with Peter Bernstein, the son of Elmer Bernstein, on his father's timeless musical mastery, and then all the standard arrow postcards and posters and all that fun stuff. Ten Star love this movie, Anthony Man. You've got Henry Fonda kind of breaking in, Anthony Perkins as a as a young sheriff, and so there's

all this, you know, it's an Anthony Mann movie. So it's all this masculinity stuff, you know, and it's it's great, you know, especially anytime Anthony Perkins is in a movie. He's always kind of playing at the margins of masculine identities already, and in this particular film I think really deserves to be better known. You know, it's it's it's one of the more I wouldn't say that's an obscure Western, but when you think of Anthony Mann, ten stars and the one that like leaps to mind. So this

is really exciting. Yeah, this was one that you definitely wanted. The moment it got announced, we were already talking about it. So yeah, I'm glad you're here to share about it. Henry Fond, Anthony Perkins. Yeah, not one I've seen, but one with that cast and with that director. This is on the must list for me. Robert Altman film That Cold Day in the Park from nineteen sixty nine is coming on April eighth on Blu Ray in the UK only from Arrow. This is going to be a

little bit of an interesting one. This is a two disc limited edition, and this is one of those rare times with Arrow where if you don't get

the limited edition, you do not get the whole package. So for this one you'll get two discs, but if you get the standard later you will not get that second disc, which is the newly extended one hundred and fourteen minute version of the film, which is reintegrating previously deleted material from a surviving pre release print, which, of course is gonna be a big selling point of this if you are if you're into Altman, and if you're wanting this

release, you probably want to get the limited. Yeah, kind of is this one you've seen before? No, there was a previous Blu Ray edition. I can't remember whether it was Olive or Twilight Time or maybe not even so when this was announced, I immediately deleted it from a wish list and I guess I'm going to go for the limited. Yeah, they're kind of

upon you with that disc being foisted. Speaking of being hoisted on Blu Ray in the UK, we are getting behind convent walls from nineteen seventy eight, And man, did this drum up some really funny comments when I posted, Oh jeez, yeah, so this is gonna have a new audio commentary by Justine Smith uh Antarctic Nuns and the Artistry of Desired New Appreciation by film scholar ever Gene Selliby a short film by the director and then illustrate a collector's booklet

with new writing by Kat Ellinger and original press notes. This is a good, cool release. Yeah, I'm finally gonna be able to retire my DVD. Love Boord Chick, great animator, great visual stylist, and also a PERV. So so right up your alley. Huh, right up my alley. Uh. And then Simner's coming in hot with the puns. Hey, that's the next that's his that's his worst habit. Oh that was pretty good. Uh. Now for the biggest mainstream title that they're putting out, which

is hilarious to say about a film like Case. April twenty ninth in the UK and then April thirtieth in the US and Canada, we are getting basket Case from Frank Cannon Lauder in nineteen eighty two on four K Man. This is one of those that I read this announcement and I start thinking, like, you know, the stop motion at the end, how's that gonna looking? Four K? How do you feel about this? Some things aren't meant

to be seen for right, I just don't know, you know. Obviously, anytime Frank Henon later gets some attention, I'm happy, Although I wish somebody would put on physical media his latest film, Boiled Angels. But I don't know, I don't know. Does did you say there's not any new features? Right? No, this is a rehashing of their previous release. Nothing crazy. Well, we'll say, we'll say, I yeah, I again. I love this movie. I love Hitt and Lodd. This movie

is a lot of fun. But it's also grimy. It's supposed to be grimy, and this will be very grainy, no doubt, nothing wrong with that. But man, again, I've talked on here before. I want all of the films in the highest quality possible, but highest quality that they need and should have. This one almost feels like it possibly a step too far. I'm not against you putting it out necessarily, but man, I'm

really curious to see how this looks. You'll get anything off for KU, but you won't get that, all right, mister loaf Onto the next one. They are doing an Aerostore exclusive, which I mean, I kind of like their other art. This is this is some wild art. Yeah. Anyways, then we got have released details from Keno Lber that they are releasing North Dallas forty on four K and standalone Blu Ray, both on March twenty sixth. This is pouring over all of the stuff that was on the Imprint

release. So if you never picked that up, this is a great release. Got a lot of really great extras. Daniel Kramer was involved in quite a few of those getting them together, primarily, you know, he was on the audio commentary with Daniel Waters and then Ted Katscheff, the director, was on there with both of them. Yeah, this is this is a solid release. The Imprint disc looked pretty good in four K from Keno.

I'm sure this will look even better. You know, I hate football and I think it should be banned, but I got a thing for football movies. I like him. And you think the football should be banned. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah because of the concussions are what, Yeah, and the culture of like toxic violence and exploitation of you know, various populations. And of course because Taylor Swift is a democratic plant designed to designed to de

masculinize the sport. But the point is, I love football movies and this is one of the better ones. That was a weird tirade. I love to hear that right around Super Bowl's time of the year. Two. I hate football, I hate it. I've always hated it. I've always hated it. I enjoyed Taylor Swift next one, I don't like either. I don't like her music. I don't think it's good. You don't like good things, that's all right. Coming on March nineteenth on Blu Ray from Keno

is The Soldier's Tale from nineteen eighty four. This is an Emmy winning animated classic by the renowned New Yorker illustrator R. O. Blackman and Man. This came out of nowhere. We got an audio commentary on this by the director, by an animator and an associate producer. There's a short film by the director as well, and then a collection of animated shorts and commercials. This looks like a really fun release. Kind of surprise they're putting it on

the Kino Classics line. But yeah, this looks fun. What do you think of this? Well, if you buy one animated film today, get the tune from Death Crocodile Bill Plump. But if you get two, this might be all right. Just love it, Ronnie. I understand that, you know, people like Taylor Swift's music. I just don't. I don't get the music. I don't understand it doesn't. It just sounds like everything else to me. I don't I don't know anyways. Next up, Keno

is releasing Submarine Command from nineteen fifty one. Someday we got a twenty twenty HD master by Paramount in this from a four K scan William Holden Nancy Olsen film. I've I've never been a submarine movie person. How about you? You know the submarine movies I like are are the ones that were made before they could realistically do submarine movies, and so this one will be right up my alley. I'm pretty excited about it. Oh shit, that's right,

I got it. There's another animated movie from to talk about, but that's later. You know, John farroh MEA's dad. Not a bad director. I've not seen Submarine Command, but with that cast and knowing John Farrow's work, I'm definitely gonna see it, all right. And you don't really get movies? Is it because of the claustrophobia? I don't know. I mean, I'm tall, it doesn't it doesn't work for me. Submarine's yeah, that wouldn't be on it. Next up, this is one that we talked

about recently, but now we got some details. Stop making sense from A twenty four is coming on four four K and Blu Ray. This isn't shipping until May. You can pre order this now. You got bonus songs on this, including Cities, Big Business, Zebra, twenty five minute making of Doc twenty twenty three, Dolby Atmos in nineteen eighty four, original stereo mixes. The only real problem with this release. Did you ever go click and see about buying it from A twenty four? Nope? Well, I guess

that's the other question. Have you bought anything directly from A twenty four ever? No, never bought anything direct from them. Yeah. I can't think of what you may have wanted to buy from them, because this stuff you like is not really A twenty four? So this what do they do? Like midsummer and talk to me and modern stuff? Anyways, if you go to buy this on four K right now, it comes out to before shipping and taxes and all that, fifty eight dollars. Fifty eight dollars for some

garish. It's so this is a standard release. It's going to be about this all does at least come with lobby cards? I don't think this one does. Wow. Yeah, So this thing is fifty eight dollars plus tax and shipping, and so I think for most people it was between seventy and seventy three dollars shipped for a four K release of Stop Making Sense, which is a brilliant, brilliant release. Nothing against the release itself, the film. If you've never seen it, you'll probably love it. Most people do.

It's incredible. But seventy three dollars shift, Yeah, definitely my favorite. Jonathan Demi for sure. Seventy two dollars. That's a lot for our movies. Seventy three dollars yeah, uh, Ragnar says, speaking of waiting for things, Mando, we're still waiting for a Halloween order. Yes, it is shipping starting in three and a half days. I think we can.

We can wait three and a half more days, Ragnar. Next up, h Qina Lover announced No Way Out is coming on four K soon thisteen eighty seventh film with Kevin Kostner and Gene Hackman and Will Patten and all them. A bunch of people just bought this on Blu Ray from the UK and now Kino of course releasing this on four K. You're gonna get taken off YouTube for having that nipple. Thankfully, it's a male presenting nipple, so I'm allowed to show that and only that and just stare at it on stream

for the next six hours and they will not stop me. Isn't that weird? Serious niphair? Kevin Costner's got right, and yet I had I had to censor a cover today. That amount of nip hary feel like she's about to cough at a cough up the airball. Oh man, Kevin Kafner, I've never uh, I've never seen this movie, so I have nothing else to say. Is this the first time Kevin Costra's nipples but on the cover of a Blue ray? I'm not sure. Given the air I'm surprised as

ass isn't on it. Next up, Shout Factory had some announcements in the first April ninth on Blu Ray is the nineteen ninety eight. I don't even know what to call this thing Lost in Space. I was gonna say an underseen film, But man, do you like lauson Space? I don't want to shoot all over it. If you've seen this and love it, it's not good. No, this is not a good movie. I don't think i've ever met anybody who thought it was good. I don't get it.

And not to mention, I'm really kind of weirded out about this that this is a There were a bunch of this is a Screen Factory released, that's a that's one thing. Well seeah, it's not that. But there there was a in the late nineties, there was like a deluge of television adaptation movies that were just lazy and shitty and I can't remember why. There must have been one good one that started at all, but not this one.

The two K scan of the interpositive for this two K scan of a film from nineteen ninety eight and coming on Blu ray audio commentary, a couple of audio commentaries, which, wow, you've got new interviews with the director producer Steven Hopkins in the right. It's also kind of odd that this is a collector's edition of Underscreen Factory to like, anyways, this is this is odd,

super odd. Yeah, it doesn't seem like the right sub label for it, but yeah, this this came out around the same time as like the Avengers movie, or like the British TV show Avengers movie and The Wild Wild West and Bewitched and things like that. And Bewitched was like a decade later. It was already past the weird Oh wait, that wasn't a remake of the TV show, wasn't that was a remake of the movie Bewitched? Well either way, weird weird time anyways, Next up, oh god.

April ninth, Shout is releasing on Blu Ray Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Honey and a standard release that it's the exact same disc that was already in their steel book that they put out last year from Walmart. Uh. That never announced. That's the funny part. They never even announced they were releasing that steel book. It's been out for months, and now they released this, which this has already been out on four K for multiple other labels.

What I just realized Mission Impossible nineteen ninety six. It must have been one of the ones that you started it off. Anyway, Okay, Winning the Pooh, Yeah, yeah, I'm sure you're dying to see this. I have not seen it. I'm not particularly interested in seeing it. I like the I love the concept. That's funny, but I just I doubt they pulled it off. Dude, did you see that? I've not seen it. I'm kind of eager to see it. I'm into the cheap slasher sometimes,

but something about just off. I wouldn't be against seeing it, but I'm not gonna blind by it. No, not for a screen factory price. Oh the Saint. I saw that in the theater. Yeah, yeah, shit, everything gotten? Oh hey, I want to see this. This is exciting. April sixteenth on Blu Ray. Finally getting a Shout factor, well not finally Shout, but finally getting a good release, hopefully of Affliction from Paul Schrader. This is coming as part of the Shout select line.

This is the nineteen ninety seven film with the really odd cover art. I gotta say that is strange because I remember the box art on VHS was like Coburn's face just big on the box, you know, and I thought that was a good cover. This is like, what is that? That's beyond that? No new features except bonus features for the Blu Ray, a new two K scan from original film elements. Again, that's not a bonus

feature. Yeah, I mean you want to have that, but that should be that should just be the feature, right, So if you've never seen it, Nick Nulty, James Kober, and Sissy spasic, Willem Dafoe, Paul Schrader back in you know, nineteen ninety seven, Paul Schrader. Uh, this is a This is a big one. A lot of people have been after this. Yes, it's been afflicted. Humboldt Horse says, came in late. I'm not a SWIFTI or a submarine person. Still like you

guys though, Oh great? Well yeah we uh man two K scan from the IP Equals bonus feature and Craig is smiling. Yeah, that's perfect. Anyways, that's Strader. Next up is they partnered with g Kids again for a release of Blue Giant, coming on April sixteenth. This is gonna have a Q and A with Heromi on this and then a trailer never seen it again, not super into anime, don't know lot about it. Then, probably the one that got people most excited, They are releasing Rolling Thunder on

four K under Shout Select. This is coming on April twenty third, and this one different than the last film that we just looked at. Does say extras in progress and will be announced at a later date. However, that doesn't mean they're actually going to add anything. It could just be the same old thing. That was on the last Blu ray they did, and they're just not letting us know for some reason. Rolling Thunder, what do you

think of this one? I like Rolling Thunder. Schrader kind of just owned it because they made him put like a pseudo happy ending on there, and he wanted to go out more taxi drivers. Don't know that I need to upgrade, but I'm not against it, depending on how different the picture is gonna look. But I really enjoy it. Great lines. Hamy Lee Jones is awesome in this movie, as is William Devang. So if you've never seen it or or don't own it, this is probably the way to go.

I would assume, I would hope so. And I guess that's it for Shout Factory. I did want to say there was a leak that they were supposed to do the Faculty in four K in April. Nothing has shown up for that. That was showing up with some retailers, but either the release was pulled or it's been delayed another month or something. But it's not up on their website, not up anywhere else other than the retailers that it

had leaked at. Not sure what's coming, Just a heads up. If you were about to buy a release of the Faculty, you might want to wait a couple months. We'll see, We'll see what happens there. Chris says, I don't want to sound like a jerk, but this is the most underwhelming month, underwhelming month ever from shout Scream. How do you feel about that? Yeah? It's funny because I just said, like an hour or two ago, that's a pretty good month. That was a pretty good

month. And then when you actually showed the announcements, I was like, wow, I guess I was really excited about affliction. Yeah, this is this is not a huge not a huge month for them. Yeah, we'll see what happens. Earlier this week, I put up an interview with writer and director Joe Lynch, who just released Suitable Flesh, which is essentially a love letter to Stuart Gordon and everything Lovecraft. It is a wonderful movie. Everybody should check it out. But while you're out it, check out the

interview. It's a really fun one. Joe Lynch went to some really vulnerable places that he doesn't go to in a lot of interviews and really really surprised me that he was able to speak so candidly. Oh, this guy's great. He made hands down the best Wrong Turn movie, Yes, which is the second one with Henry Rollins as the host of a survivalist game show. To Turn is awesome. Yeah, he's got he's got a decent philmography. I mean, Mayhem was pretty fun. Everlee and everything that he's done acting

wise as well, he's he's always pretty great. First Row was a trauma movie. It was in terror firmer I think, yeah, I believe so. Yeah. April ninth, rlj E and Shutter are releasing It's a Wonderful Knife, which is a It's a Wonderful Life but mixed with scream essentially. I didn't check this one out last year, but I've heard it's decent for people that are into like cheesy horror holiday films. I wanted to watch this.

I always have like ten Christmas horror movies I want to watch, and then December passes and I'm like, well, I can't watch it now, but that's not true. I need to watch it, but I didn't. Yeah. You can pre order now already up on Amazon next March eleventh, on Blu Ray in the UK from Studio Canal is Room at the Top from nineteen fifty nine. I kind of wanted to point out gorgeous cover art on

this compared to some of the other releases that we've talked about tonight. All it takes is just a little bit of attention to detail and finding the right artist and you can make something much more appealing. This really sells this Lawrence Harvey film. We've got new special features on this Dealena Kidd on Room at the Top, and then a bunch of old stuff, including two audio commentaries. I, however, have not seen this one. Is this one that

you're familiar with only about title, So I'm excited about this. You know, it's always listed with the you know, new British cinema, the kitchen sink films, you know, working class stuff. So I'm into it. I'm glad. Yeah, a lot of people seem excited about this one too. Uh. Next up Donnie Yen in Polar Rescue from Well Go USA, coming in March twenty sixth, and I tend to laugh at a lot of the ones when well goes announcing these, But everything I've read is that this

movie's actually really rad and the trailer looks pretty damn good. It's Donnie Yen in snow. I mean, that's that's pretty exciting right there. Already that is cool, But I have to say this cover art, Oh, it's awful. This looks one hundred percent like an early two thousand mi Norski movie. Yep, sorry, i'd be it really does. Oh yeah, this one is just the worst photoshop. That's cool, though. I mean I'm a sucker for snow movies too. You know told you last month I saw

what was it? Whnd River and it wasn't very good, but it was very snowy. I love snow movies. I'm even gonna check that that one Snow movie with the Lady from Underworld in it, even though all the reviews say it's bad. Which one is that white out? Okay? Yeah? Simer says this looks like that one background actor that got lost on the way to the Fast eight set looks like slice Cliffhanger with snow. Roddy says Donnie Okay there, oh man a cover. Liam Neesen was bored to be photo

shop on Oh I'm gotta watch one of his the ice Truck movie. Uh more, Well go. March twelfth, they are releasing one percent Warrior from last year. And this is another one supposed to be really great. Actually, this one says a legendary aging action film star is drawn into the real world of violence when feuding yakuza gain infiltrate the set of his latest feature. Caught in the middle of a chaotic battle and increasing body count, will his

martial arts training be enough to save him? This is supposed to be good. Looks pretty fun again. This cover looks awful, so it's good. Elements of JCVD, but without the psychologizing. That's good. I like man. Next up, a company that we don't hear from a whole lot with one of the most interesting sounding releases in quite some time. April sixteenth, Flicker Alley is releasing Against the Storm Herbert Klein in a darkened Europe. This

is a double feature. We got two films in here. The first one is Crisis, a film of the Nazi way, and this one says Herbert Klein made his breath breakthrough documentaries The storm Clouds of Impending War gathered over Europe in nineteen thirty eight. Narrated by illustrious Marrior actor Leif Eriksson, the film, which captures with evocative camera work and ominous clarity. The lead up to the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia was shot at great risk to Kline and his crew.

Klein, a Jew born in Chicago raised in Iowa, was in his late twenties when he began filming in the Sudettan region bordering Germany and took on the task of not only passing as a Nazi sympathizer in order to complete the project, but also smuggling the footage out of the Prague airport pased Gestapa guards. The result is one of the first anti Hitler documentaries ever made. Wow, harrowing. I mean, that's a really, really great release. Yeah.

Man, I always feel like I'm you know, when I'm confronted with actual heroes. I have reminded what a coward I owe. This will be great to to check out for sure. What's crazy? That wasn't enough for him. The second one on this is called Lights Out in Europe, and this says in nineteen forty, just one year after filming the invasion of Czechoslovakia by Hitler's forces, Herbert Klein's team traveled to Warsaw and England to pursue and

document the feared Nazi invasion of Poland, narrated by actor Frederick Marsh. The surviving recordings of these events would serve as evidence of the outbreak of the Second World War, bringing about one of the first completed and distributed documentaries on one of the most destructive international conflicts in history. We've got a commentary on both

of these films. We've also got a short film. We've got a newsreel, We've got an image gallery souvenir booklet with the new essay detailing the film's production and distribution by Thomas Daherty. Yeah, this looks like a must must have release for sure. I do want to warn people Flicker Alley can be a little expensive, but they're really worth it. Their quality is top notch. For example, they put out The Man Who Laughs a couple of years

ago and it was just an astonishing release from them. Definitely suggest checking it out. Every so often these go on cell but they're on sale. Price is usually like twenty eight dollars, so even then it's a little on the pricey side, but these are good people worth supporting, and with the release like this, this is an important one. Next up March twenty sixth k Flight and MPI are teaming up in the US to release a four K media book of the roundup No Way Out from twenty twenty three. This is the

Don Lee film. And what's interesting this has already had a Blu Ray release in the States, and this is now just a four K upgrade of a film from twenty twenty three that already had a media book, already had a Blu Ray, and now it's a four K media book in the US and they still have not put this out in the UK at all. So, yeah, Don Lee's a cool dude though. He's fun. Oh yeah, he owned Find of Bussan, that's for sure. He was incredible in that.

Yeah. Next up April ninth, Neon and Dekal are working together to put out Origin from twenty twenty three. This is the newest Ava Duvernet film. For anybody that's not seen it, highly recommend this movie. It seems to be slightly divisive. It's a pretty great movie, I thought. I think are Doelis Taylor was great in this. John Berenthal was pretty good in this. Not a lot of let's see, not a lot of time to develop some chemistry between the couple. Unfortunately, but this is this is a

really great movie. I really hope people check this out and for some reason did not get marketed all too well. Hmm, yeah, I've been Uh I've got a couple of dates on my calendar circle because it's coming to a theater nearby and playing like five or six showings, so I'll probably pick it up as well. Uh. The signer says, keep decal away from this And for those that don't don't know, some of the decal stuff has been pretty iffy lately, not great with encoding and all that. So uh yeah,

decal can be a little bit rough. And yes, yes, mom, we did watch this one together. The first trailer was terrible, says Simator. They should have started the second trailer. Well, not only that, like there's there's just no marketing. They're not they're not really sharing that. Uh the film is out there pushing it at at all. Yeah, it's a great movie though. Check it out. Coming on February twenty seventh

on Blu Ray from Lionsgate in what is most likely a DVD case. The Night They Came Home, the film that is a Western with the most ever photoshop Danny Trejo you will ever see with a hollow with James holmost right, this is so awkward, so awkward, And again, what is with Lionsgate and DVD plus Blu ray case. Well, yeah, I imagine the target audience for this is the kind of people who would get history books written by

Bill O'Reilly. This is a movie for that guy. This is a movie for somebody who sees, uh that top line there is like, oh man, Brian Austin Green, my favorite rapper and the first rapper to date Megan Fox to marry Megan Fox. Oh man, I remember when I found out Megan Fox had a thing for white rappers and I began rapping, but I

gave up pretty quickly. Oh man, Let's see Brian Austin Green easily the the edgiest part of Beverly Hills nine O two one O. Like if you if you're watching Beverly Hills nine two one O and you're like, which one of these guys is from the street brings that gravitas? Let's let's put him in a western, all right. Next is this is a different sort of announcement to go over The tear Vision home video podcast is back. This head

been on hiatus for quite some time. I think the last episode was in October and that was really only to cover the announcements that they did in October. And the reason this is on here to talk about it is because I'm now producing the podcast. I'm the one that's gonna be hosting this with Brad

all the time. We're gonna be putting, you know, as much as we can into sharing details on the titles coming out, the process of putting these out, all the extras on the discs, any questions that people have lots going into the podcast, and then further the other side of that is the bottom half of this is that I am actually working with tear Vision as

a producer now. I'm for the last couple of months, I've been helping produce some of their discs, interviewing talent, tracking people down, helping you know, check on copy and artwork and all that fun stuff. It's it's been a really interesting time. But I really got to say there is there is a lot of some crazy stuff coming from Terorvision this year, and I cannot wait for you guys to uh to hear about it because it's gonna blow

some minds. People have some very very specific feelings about Tearror Vision as a whole, because a lot of their first year was just uh, you know, s OV low budget horror. It's not gonna be the case for much longer. There's some there's some really interesting titles coming from Terorvision that are gonna surprise a lot of people. Yeah, congratulations, man, thank you.

This is uh, you're on the cusp of something, something big, and I tell you you're gonna have some stories when it comes to behind the scenes ship. I'll tell you what. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's there's a lot. Yeah, I love that. Somehow we've been kind of able to this under wraps for a couple of months just to make sure that it was gonna work out and be okay for everybody. But it's been decent.

Like during our busiest time so far producing extras, I was doing a lot of shit for tear Vision at the same time, and we were all kind of stressed out. But somehow most of it has come together. It's been uh, it's been really interesting and and some of these, some of these next round of announcements is gonna gonna make some people pretty happy. I think I remember when you told me the news that this was happening. I was

in the middle of teaching a class. I knew, but you knew that I was teaching a class, so I was like, this must be an emergency. So I'm like, yeah, hear kids watch a video and I step out because I thought it was about something that we were working on in some kind of like heart attack, deadline issue or right or something like hey, I need to talk to you a SAP. And then you're like, my dream has come true, and I'm like, that is not how it

went. First off, let's let's share that it was asking you for permission. You weren't asking me permission. You were talking like a little girl. You go, my dreams have come true, Prince Charming. I really hope Brad is watching this right now. No, it was great, man. I was so happy for you. And then I went back and taught the fucking class. Well to drop you know a little more. You know, I know people were excited to have that episode come out. Literally just came

out yesterday. We're already gearing up for the next episode, so it's not going to be some long hiatus. We are recording very soon and I'm going to do my best to time the release every single time. Right when we announced stuff, we're gonna be putting out podcast, video and audio podcast same

day. I want people to have that kind of context and really want people to hear, you know, what's going into these releases, because as you if you've watched this channel for the last couple of years, that's what I love. That's what I want to hear. I want to hear what makes these labels make their choices, why releases four K versus Blu Ray, the cost that goes into some of these things. I'm gonna price some of that information out a brad as much as I can, some of the logistics behind

the scenes, why things are delayed. We're gonna do our best, So just chill to the next episode coming soon, promise. Yeah, well Snoopy Dog there uh Grindhouse video. They were gone for a little bit of time. I think it was almost a full month. They shut down their physical store and revamped the way that they were doing things for inventory and everything. They are back open. It's been back open for a few days. They've got a different sale going on, a clearance sale, so their by two

Get when Free sale is currently discontinued, but it'll be back eventually. They're shipping policies been changed ever so slightly. They're announcing an event called Counting to Ten soon, so watch out for that. And then if you go look real closely through their site a lot of stuff that was out of print, you should be able to find at least a couple of releases in there that were uh, you know, available and not exactly retail but definitely not eBay

second hand prices either. You can get it for about the middle of those two numbers. Happy to see him, but I was happy to see their their weekly live stream comeback too. What's the Guy's Mike Mike Samer? I love his live stream because every time the first ten minutes is how like every single thing's got screwed up, what he had to go through to fix it. First, you know, the inventory was deleted, or a truck crashed into a lake and sank, or you know, it's always such a saga.

He seems like he seems like a cool guy. Spaghetti says, I think the open conversation on that podcast really brings good flavoring to everything, creates some good buye in for the titles. With the casual conversation. Vall exactly what we were aiming for. Yeahactly, Yeah, next up. I haven't

watched it yet, I've I've been busy. Shelf Shock Rewind voting ended last night, and so this is the this is the moment to really hammer home that live on February eighteenth on this channel and on the Shelf Shock Rewind YouTube channel, on Twitch, Facebook, Twitter, everywhere. We are gonna be doing everything we can to get as many eyes on this because twenty twenty three

was a wild year for releases. I don't have the full list of winners yet, but I peaked at a couple, and there's a couple that are genuinely surprising for me. Even so, I'm very curiou to see what everybody thinks about these. We're gonna do our absolute best to get a a lot of people, you know, accepting awards, having people from the labels come on and talk about the release, even just for a couple of minutes, really try to get people uh involved by in, do some giveaways during the

stream and everything. It's gonna be a great time hosted by me and Celeste le Cabra, and get as many people as we all love just involved. That's the big thing. Get the community behind something really great. And I will say we almost doubled our vote count from last year, which is really exciting. We we ended up just shy of doubling it, but man, we got we got really close. Okay, I was gonna ask, and then part of me was like, well, what if it didn't go?

Well, it went pretty great. I'm not, you know, not not disappointed in the least bit. Last year was a really good first run. But yeah, this year, we definitely have more people showing up and I'm just excited to see everybody celebrating the good year that we had together. Well, this is gonna be on my my kid's seventeenth birthday, so I don't know, I might wait. I can wait, they can wait till the next day. Next up is O c N announcements here. You got a

lot of stuff to talk about. Is this almost done? Uh? I kind of. There's a lot of stuff. First up, one that we knew they announced this at the beginning of January. We are getting phase four on four K big Ants outer box and then inner slip art looks like this classic art on that other side of the slip there. This is gonna have a three disc set. We got a four K and two Blu rays.

The two Blu rays are region locked. You've got HDR in that four K, newly scanned restored in four K from the O eighty four minute theatrical version is available on both the UHD and Blu ray discs. The eighty nine minute preview version with multiple soundtracks options. That's only on a Blu ray disc.

You got a commentary track for the theatrical version with Matthew Aspery Gear. You've got a brand new documentary by Elijah Drenner, featuring interviews with Jeffrey Bass, co star Michael Murphy, screenwriter Mayo Simon, arkivist Sean Savage, and design historian and Saul Bass biographer Pat Kirkham. I guarantee that's gonna be great. Elijah's great at what he does. We got a new featurette with the composer Brian Gascoden on here and electronic music artist David Vorhaus. We got some deleted

shots, raw footage, a bunch of fun stuff. Yeah, this is this is a pretty solid release for a kind of legendary film. A lot of people love this one. Yeah, A lot of people excited on in the chat what do you think about Phase four. I'm sure you've seen this before. I've not, You've not had an earlier edition in a wish list.

And then when this was announced, well it was kind of hinted a few months before that, so I was like, oh, I can hold off, and yeah, now I'm gonna get to see it for the first time on this fine addition, Yeah, this is this is gonna be a great release. Next up is The Playgirls and the Vampire from nineteen sixty.

This is a pretty old, unique release in the VS line. This says a troop of five showgirls along with their manager, are traveling through a remote stretch of countryside when their minibus gets stuck after a rainstorm, finding refuge at the castle home in the mysterious Count Gabor Carnessy. Probably not how you say that the women make. The women make the best of the situation by continuing

to practice their burlesque routines. But little do they know that the strange Count is harboring a fiendish secret and is intent on subjecting the lovely ladies to his vampiric desires. Newly scanned, restored and from the thirty five mili Fine Grain Master presented in the original Italian language mono soundtrack with new English subs and an English dub mono soundtrack. We got some conversations on here, alternate opening title

sequence, different opening title, French title sequence, Steel Gallery. And also with this, they put out one of those Oscar Bescher videos about the restoration on their YouTube that I strongly suggest checking out. It's a fun one.

He's always hilarious. Yeah, very pleased about this one. This is a title that really could have gone some I mean, like it would have been at home on so many labels, like Yeah, when it was announced, I was like, oh, I would have thought Mando Micabre would have gotten that or Severn. But yeah, this it fits Vinegar Centrum too. So I love the artwork. And this is a movie that I've been wanting to see for a long time, so I was kind of surprised this was not

a VSA. Oh, but I understand it does sort of fit on the vs line as well, so makes sense. I'm just yeah, I'm glad it comes with the subscription. All these damn sub labels. Then from Vinegar Syndrome is the one that I'm excited for, Spanish Bloodbath and this has Night of the Skull a Jess Franco title. Yes, it does, Violent blood Bath and The Fish with the Eyes of Gold. Now of the Skull will

why don't you tell us what you're excited about for that? Well, I have two different DVD editions where there you go, So this one is a German DVD, and then then here's one that Image put out. And this is not a super well known Franco movie, and it's kind of, I don't want to say, it's almost like a conventional film. It's this old dark house hunted house deal with some Scooby dude level like Bananigan's you know, running, you know, hiding in rooms and guys with the mask and everything,

and it's, uh, it's great. It's a lot of fun. And then the other two films I'm not familiar with, always interested in getting some more horae grause. So this is uh, this was the announcement even more than Phase four, where I was like, oh goodie, you know yeah. Uh So, like I said, we've got Night of the Skull, Violent Bloodbath, and The Fish with the Eyes of Gold. This is gonna be a three disc region free blu ray set. There are so many

interviews here. I couldn't even pack them all onto the announcement page. So I'm gonna read those out from the VS site real quick, just so that we have a little record of them here. This is we got an interview with actor Antonio Mayans for Night of the School, interview with the Citrus Festival director Angel Sala, and that is on all three of the films that We've

got a different interview on all three. Interview with Carlos Grause, son of director Jorge Grau for Violent Bloodbath. We've got an interview with actor Jose Lafonte for a Violent Bloodbath. Five Spanish Yallo recommendations by Angel Sala. There's just I mean, there's a lot. They didn't have to put that much in here, considering it's three films, and they did. They put a lot of great stuff in here. So stoked on it. Yeah, could not

be more pleased. Stan says, are there well known Franco movies? I mean, next to Dario Argento, I think Jess Franco's profile has benefited the most from the invention of home video. Oh absolutely that. I'm saying Franco is on our Gento's level in terms of that particular kind of artistry. Franco's art is a much more syncopated kind of thing, meandering and strange. But

I think there will be pretty well known Franklin. Of course, the most well known Frankoin movies still haven't made the leap, you know, Succubus, Venus, and Furs. So I'm looking at en Franco collection now that we're working on some releases and all that other fun stuff, I have to really give a caveat here. We do not know anything. I'm not saying that something is going to happen. But one thing that we've seen labels do in

the past is when you allude to somebody's work that they've done prior. If you have the rights for something else that you're gonna be putting out, generally you'll stick to something like that to say, hey, they're also in this and get that and you know, get people excited for it. Keno Lober does that a lot with vinegar Syndrome. On their reading of the copy for this, this says one of only a handful of traditional jolly directed by Jess

Franco, and then in parentheses Venus and First. Now, I'm not saying that they have Venus in Furst. But wouldn't that be just perfect to come from them? I heard there was an elements issue, but if if somebody is resolved, and I'll be pretty freaking happy. We definitely need it, definitely definitely need it. Anyways. Next up, Vinegar Syndrome has announced that they are releasing A Man called Hero by Andrew Lao. This is from nineteen

ninety nine and this is coming to their VSA line. This is going to a region a locked blu ray, newly restored from an existing studio master, presented in the original Cantonese language surround soundtrack with newly translated English subs and an English language dub on this. We got a new commentary track on here with

Frank Jang, which is awesome. And then Hong Kong Cinema's action movie Landscape is placing a blood sword in the road a man called Hero's place in that genre a video essay by Justin de Clue of the Important Cinema Club, which is pretty cool. I'm glad that he's getting into more of these. Yeah, I mean, this looks like a pretty fun VSA. Big fan of Frank Jang's work, In fact, I was gonna write a Chuck Berry style tribute called my Jang Lang. I just wow. That came out of nowhere,

out of nowhere. Next up from the VSL line is a really big deal. Vinegar Syndrome is releasing five card stud from nineteen sixty eight. This has Dean Martin and Robert Mitcham and some people that really knew the art for this kind of called that this was coming out when they put up the banner last month. This is a region A locked release, newly scanned in four

K from the thirty five millimeter OCN. Commentary track with author and film historian Brian Hannon, film critic Walter Chaw on the films of Henry Hathaway, Lizzie Frank on screenwriter Marguerite Roberts legacy, and that's I mean, that's it. This is a solid VSL release, very good movie. I had it on an out of print DVD, so excited to see it restored. Henry Hathaway coming to the Vinegar Syndrome family. That's great. Let's mention Dean Martin and

Robert Yeah, they're so good at this. This is this movie should come with a cloth to soak up all the alcohol. That is oozing from the pores of its stars. Yes, Terry says, Dean Martin and vinegar cinem are two things that I thought would never be in the same sentence, this

is awesome. I feel like I feel like somebody at Vendor Syndrome was singing Baby, it's cold outside to Dean Martin the image of Dean Martin while they were restoring this, oh Man. Next up from the Degausser video line, we are getting Harencia di Obilika and this is from nineteen ninety three and billed as the Mexican Child's play. The trailer for this, well, first off, have you seen this? The trailer for this is bonkers. If you have not. If you have not seen this trailer yet, go watch it.

You are probably gonna want this immediately. It looks wild. This movie looks really fun. This says. When Tony, a successful businessman, receives a call informing him that he has inherited his late aunt's vast estate, he uproots himself and his wife Annie from New York to Mexico City. While adjusting to and exploring a new gothic home, Tony and Annie come upon a mysterious

clown doll. Although merely unnerved by the doll's strange appearance at first, Annie soon becomes concerned as it begins turning up out of nowhere in every corner of the house. When a series of fatal accidents occur on or near the couple's property, with the doll always at the scene, Tony and Annie come to the terrifying realization that a sinister force has possessed it and began a race against

time to figure out how to bring the carnage to an end. Yeah, well, do that on a double feature with Dolly Dearest or like one of like nine other movies. Bleeding Skull covered it. Ronnie says that trailer's wild, the trailer's really fun, like this is one that a lot of times, the trailers don't sell me more than the synopsis already? Did this one?

Really? Did? It? Looks great? We had a commentary track with Hugo Laura on this, and then an interview with actor Roberto gwinar newly translated English subs again de Gosser, And of course, because it's a Degasar title, you've also got one of those fancy led VHS releases if you want one of those, even that picture. That's a wild picture. I'm sorry, are you? I was about to say, are you into this? Yeah? Cover art got me. It seemed like we were especially excited.

But what's wrong? Thing? Bye bye? By? This was that accurate? Yeah? I like clowns. That makes sense. It is a really creepy top of the slipcover here. Yeah, that's the first thing I noticed, the clown Are you sure? Yeah? Big? I like big clowns. I cannot learn you're a clown man? Oh gosh. Anyways, Vinegar Sentrum also announced some new merch of course. First up is their bloody Valentine

zippered hoodie. Here's what it looks like. Unfortunately, it's mighty expensive if you are anything over a medium, it jumps up pretty quickly to from forty five to fifty five dollars. They are also doing this your Syndrome Telephone Love shirt, which is very akin to like old school adult adult theater advertising. Why these companies make these t shirts that I find amusing and attractive but I could never wear I can't. There's nowhere in my life where I can wear

that shirt? Why not? Will who? Next up, they are doing a Tammy and the t Rex split Fountain variate shirt and then the big ones for a lot of people that were excited from the earlier release. This crazy arrow led sign, which I gotta admit a little more appealing than the other one they did. This is this is pretty nice. And then they're also doing a vinegar syndrome logo mini led desktop sign. This is about eight inches tall and it's fifty bucks bucks. Yeah. I don't think I'm I'm not

gonna get those things, but I like that they exist. Anyways, Time to get into these partner labels. First up is from VHS hit Fest or VH shit Fest, whatever they want to be called. This time Blind Faith from nineteen eighty eight, which I have heard for many people, is like a top top ten or twenty s ov if you're gonna rank them. Why is that funny? Will just I appreciate us. So I love that you're finding this hilarious. Yeah. This So this says Ted Partridge is a mass

murdering serial killer going around killing unsuspected woman brutally torturing them beyond imagination. It is up to detective William Lindsay and psychologist Richard Stroud to try to stop this killer before more innocent people meet their maker, supposedly based on a true story of Philadelphia serial killer Gary Heidnick just has an audio go ahead, when's somebody gonna make an s OV movie about like a group of thirty somethings who are

trying to find themselves? Yeah, where's my s OV? Big chill? It's always serial killers ripping? I'm sure it exists. SOV is just a format, not a genre. That's what I'm saying. Where are the SolV dramas? Although when we have one that's half a musical that we'll be talking about a little bit. This is true, all right. Continue with the synopsis. Silent Mandible says, what's SOV? Shot on video Region free Blu Ray audio commentary with the director Dean Wilson, An interview with Dean Wilson,

interview with an actor David Winnick, interview with Michael Hines. We also got a bonus movie on this called My Father's Gun from nineteen seventy six, and then some other gosh a bunch of stuff, shorts and stuff that's seventy three forty four minutes long, all kinds of stuff on here. This is a big disc I like that My Father's Gun is followed up by a bullet from my father. Yeah, Brendan says, you guys could buy a mini DV and just film yourselves. Kirgan says, I'm in Will's camp. I want

coming into your own as a human SOV representation. Early digital video movies go right along with s SOOV no doubt there, and Mumble says mumblecore that that's your that's your SOV. Probably oh man, that's hilarious. Next up is Deaf Crocodile I've heard of them before, putting out bubble Bath and uh, great looking slipcover. As always, this is from nineteen seventy nine. Reminder that you can buy this on the Deaf Crocodile website as I did today,

rather than buying it from Vinegar Syndrome. Yeah, you buy. If you buy one animated movie this month, it should be bubble Bath unless you really want to say the tune and then I still highly recommend it. But you should have already bought the tune. You should have already bought that. If you haven't bought the tune, get the tune and then get bubble back. We got a Hungarian film here that has a lot of stuff. We got a new commentary with Sam Deagan, of course, new essay by Film the

Story and a professor Jennifer Lynd Barker. We've got an interview with the Bubble Bath composer. We got a video on the restoration of Bubble Bath, and then five rare short films by the director, which are I mean, decent looking, great length, and a lot of stuff on here. Again, not just because he's in the chat. Deaf Crocodile discs are always so comprehensive. Yeah, that makes it such an easy purchase. Hell, listen, if Deaf Crocodile sucked, we'd say it right to Craig's face. I definitely

would. These are all amazing, almost to a fault. They put every they put it, they put others to shame, honestly, and it's every month. So it's like, well, great, here goes another thirty bucks. Craig says, we do try to cram as much on the disc as possible, and I mean mission mission succeeded here. I mean, yeah, don't put anybody on the disc though, that's the one thing that you might

ding them on. It's like they'll just get any old schmuck off the side of the highway to do a official essay, So did not go into this very much. But if you were even only like partially excited about this, man, does this sound amazing? First off, a bunch of people said that this was like best best announcement of the day. People were really excited to get this. Lots of great comments on this one, but just the

way they described this, So listen to this. A truly insane and surprisingly sexy mashup of styles from nineteen twenties art deco to nineteen sixties psychedelia to late nineteen seventies loose roxy music decadence. Bubble Bath is incredibly restless and creative, the bohemian love child of Bill Plimpton's off kilter individualism and Ralph Bakshi's wonderfully warped rubbery visual style. In other words, it's not quite like any animated film

you've ever seen. I mean, that's that's decent coffee. Yeah, you know what, it was just the right amount of adjectives and it was good adjectives. Rubbery. I like that. I like rubbery animation. Do you see what Craig says? He says, speaking of which, we got more work for you guys, Oh boy, here we go. The animation is wild, says Craig gorgeous cover. Yeah, this is a must for me.

And then to little to no fanfare. OCN got another new partner label today which brings us to what was it forty six, forty seven, something like that. This one, this one is called Memory. Did not know anything about this coming. The note on the page says Memory is an independent, artist driven motion picture company specializing and producing, curating, and distributing innovative, thought provoking works that pushed the formal boundaries of their medium. Focused on

discovering and mentoring new, diverse voices. Memory creates and showcases these new compositions on and offline. And the first release they're going with is about the carpet Capital of the World, Dalton, Georgia. This says we find the unsung creators behind the psychedelic carpets lining casinos, offices and hotel hallways. Yeah.

When I first saw this, I thought of that documentary Cocaine Cowboys, and then when I read the description, I was like, oh, there's probably cocaine in here too, Yes, absolutely, absolutely, Yeah, this looks I don't know, Yeah, okay, a documentary about weird carpet, psychedelic carpet. Okay, Uh, this canna be region A locked. We've got a trailer, deleted scenes, Q and A with the directors. There are multiple directors on this and uh that's that's it for the first release from memory.

Mm hmm, don't forget. I have to admit stand there are there are a lot of carpet related jokes I want to make at this point, but I'm holding back. All right, Yeah, they're in Dallas. Makes the joke. There we go, good one, Dallas. Oh man, get it started, all right? Ronnie had a question. Anyone know what Altered Innocences release schedule will be like? Will be like now that they left VS? Still a new one every month? Not sure on that, but

I have a feeling we will be hearing something from them pretty soon. They are not going anywhere from everything that I've been told. Next up from the VS website is Enjoy the Ride Records, putting out everything to entertain you. The Story of Video Headquarters. This is a story about a place called Video Headquarters, which was a very well established and long running store in New Hampshire

that existed for thirty two years, finally closed down in twenty fifteen. That was directed by Brantley Palmer, who was an employee from what I could gather at this video store. And Brantley is putting out the documentary. There's an audio commentary by Brandley extended never before seen interviews, radio interview about the film making of documentary, some featurettes, and then an interview with Justin The Liberty

is on this from Vinegar Syndrome and then out of nowhere. Brantley the director himself says, thank you to anyone who supports the doc I'm very honored to be featured on the Disconnected page. It must have been following following the page before it was announced. That's great. Yeah, you know, those kinds of stories are always cool. You know, you're glad, You're glad when such, you know, quirky, niche stories get preserved like the I'd definitely

like to see this. Craig says, where New Hampshire. I grew up there it is in Keen, Keen, New Hampshire. What's going on? Brian says, just got back from Argyle. It was great, fun watched with, watched with sensory seats. Nice. What's that? I have a feeling it's one of those seats that rumbles with the movie and everything. Oh, I went to a movie that said it was like, uh, sensory abled and they just turned the lights up. Interesting, it was like for

people. They explained that some people don't like to be in the dark or something. Yeah, so I guess it was a different kind of sensory thing. Pissed me off. I Uh, what is that one called d Box? I think I just talked about this last week or the week before. I watched Cavin in the Woods in d Box. That was the only film I've ever been able to do that, and d Box does the rumble. But also, you don't need to shoot on every newer movie will just because

it's a newer movie. Cavin the Woods is a crap movie. They should d Box should pass out burf bags for that shit. Okay, anyways, I've told the story, so I'll just keep going. No, I do value your experience. No, it's okay, My experiences don't matter. Next up, I couldn't even say without oh Man, Connie is putting out Man on the Brink from nineteen eighty one. This is a big deal. A lot of people were excited about this in Hong Kong Cinema Appreciation Society today.

This is a title that people have wanted for quite some time. This is Alex Chunk's Man on the Brink and it is from nineteen eighty one, following up Cops and Robbers. On this, we've got an interview with the director, commentary with the director and the ad, and then a Q and a post screening talk from twenty nineteen that's seventy two minutes long, and then multiple eight millimeters shorts on this, not not a ton of running time, but

four different shorts. I mean, that's still really cool from the director. And then a booklet with new writing by John Charles with some archival photos. One thing that uh not not to stir up controversy or anything, here we go, don't do it. Frank Jing posted that he recorded a commentary for Connie and it's not on the disc and they confirmed with him that it is not on the disc, and damn it. I want by Frank Jing. He's great at what he does. It sucks that he recorded something for this

and now it's not on here. This movie is Janglus. It's jan There's it's Jingles. That doesn't work. Yeah, us this janglus. Yeah, it's uh, it's it sucks, especially when work that you put a lot into and Frank Man, Frank puts a lot into his commentaries, like Frank told me just this week. I think he's recording five commentaries like Frank, you gotta slowed down a little bit. Yeah. Well, next up, Dark Star Pictures is putting out Night Siren from twenty twenty two. This one

sounds pretty interesting. Don't know much about it. We got a region a blu ray with some trailers and some stills gallery action on this. I will say it's a really interesting sounding story, at least it says. In a remote mountain village, two sisters grow up at the mercy of their abusive mother.

A terrible accident happens when the eldest, Sarlota, escapes into the woods, followed by her sister, Tamra. Attila, a Roman woman living on the outskirts of town, is blamed for the girl's disappearance and accused of witchcraft. Twenty years later, Sarlota unexpectedly shows up in the village. As she digs into her past, the locals grow suspicious. Only a young and eccentric herbalist, Mirah is willing to befriend her. When the animals in the village

start to fall ill, the locals accused Sarlota of entering Otila's spirit. That sounds great. Those special features that I should have called up Frank Jane and then just left it on the disc. H man. You know what somebody should do is I bet this would be possible a collection. Maybe it could be like a podcast or a CD or something of of unused commentaries. Lucas has quite a few. Yeah, and of course Amanda Ayas that's all those

Columbos. Yeah. God, the Columbo thing still still makes me pissed off. Yeah, anyways, you can call it disc in terries box of go to The next movie Next is one that we have known was coming for quite some time. It was announced on this show. But very excited that we are getting this. From nineteen seventy three, Canadian International is giving us the third in the trilogy that they started with Dirty Money and Gina. We are

getting Rejeon Patavani. This is from nineteen seventy three and is a fiftieth anniversary special edition. And this one sounds fantastic. I've got the first two gotta go and complete the triptich here for sure. That's so great that they're putting out so many of his early words. He just came out with a film last year. Still making movies now, Wow, Yeah, great, great, this is a definite. Yeah, this is a big one for me

for sure. We got new interviews with the director on here. We've got an audio commentary with Anthony Kinnick. We've got new audio interviews with multiple cast members. Pretty pretty great. They've got trailers for the other releases, and then booklet featuring a new interview with author Peter Edwards, who did the Encyclopedia

of Canadian Organized Crime. I mean again. Solid release Canadian International one of easily the most consistent partner labels from Ocian up there with def Crocodile for me, up there with Utopia, up there with a handful of them. This is this is pretty great. Yeah, here we go. Oh man, my childhood just hit me. Two thousand and eights. The rock afire explosion is coming from AGFA. And before we get too deep into this, wanted

to remind everybody this is a strictly limited title. There will not be a standard addition for this, so if you want it, you gotta get it and gotta get it as soon as possible. This is uh, this is

a nightmare fuel for many people that grew up in the Midwest. This is the true story behind one of the strangest pop culture phenomenons of the eighties, before being mysteriously replaced by Chuck E. Cheese, The Showbiz Pizza Chain, and It's the animatronic rock band The Rock a Fire Explosion took the US by storm and eventually inspired the game Five Nights at Freddy's. This documentary chronicles the rise and fall of Showbiz Pizza, the Rock a Fire Explosion, and the

obsessive fans who have kept the dream alive. I mean, what the hell does that mean? Right? What are they still dreaming about a defunct pizza chain? But I am, did you go to this? I never did go to this because I was a California dude, and these I don't think made it out to California. We had one in North Well, yeah, somewhere in North Carolina. I went five or six times as a kid,

and uh, oh man, the band is crazy. And then and so I'm glad it's confirmed because Chuck E. Cheese is like, I didn't know where show biz Like, I'm actually gonna get this documentary because I want to know what the hell happened? Where did Chuck E Cheese come from? How did this inspire five Nights at Freddy's, which it clearly did, and uh and what is this dream that's being kept alive? Pizza was terrible. It

was the worst cardboard ship you ever did eat. But the atmosphere it had the deep red and black decor that characterized some of the classier pizza hunts. Crisiecos those people have bought complete Rock of Fire sets and programmed them and their pull barns and stuff. WHOA, that's cool man H Craig as he had never heard of him. Again, he grew up in New England, Stan says. In California here we wouldn't let them cross the border. Oh that's

hilarious. Yeah, this again wild, wild looking, but I absolutely wanted to check this one out. We've got some vintage promos, news broadcast skits, lots of stuff like that. We got a commentary with the filmmakers on this, behind the scenes photo gallery and video trailer. AGFA with another really interesting release, that's for sure. So they are still a partner label everybody calmed down, and of course the show based Pizza Bear featured in the infamous

Dick the Birthday Boy photo from Rich Evans. Red Letter Media says John Stump. Yeah, that's a big, big, big one for Red Later Media for sure. What's that another YouTube channel that dives into some of these lower budget movies and shits all over them all the time? Yeah? I am not familiar. They covered like three quarters of the Vinegar Syndrome films before Vinegar Syndrome released them. Oh rand or did they know something? No, it's

just randomly. They just chose like old VHS films and covered them. IFC is putting out Simon Killer this month, this is from twenty twelve. This one sounds just amazing. The trailer for this looked really great too. We had a newly recorded audio commentary with the co writer and director Antonio Compos with co writer star Brady Corbett. We had a video conversation with the two of

them as well. Interview with Antonio compos on the aesthetics of Simon Killer two thousand and seven short film from the director, some more interviews, lots of that stuff. But then on top of all of that, booklet with new writing by Alexandra Heller Nicholas. Her first appearance tonight, and I don't think it's her last. Funny enough, Silent Mandibles says, I want the Jar

from Terror Vision. Despite the reception he got from Red Letter Media. The fact that Tarrorvision went through the trouble to put out two different versions of the film, a high contrast and low contrast. I think that shows a lot about how they're dedicated to making it look right for everybody. I just went and looked at the They look like the impractical jokesters. That was the Red Letter I just went and looked at her. Ah got it. I don't

that that doesn't look like it's for me. Sam is here? What's going on? Sam says, Simon Killer's decent. Eureka put it out years ago and it's been out of print for a bit. Oh okay, interesting. Chris says, last time I went to Chuck E Cheese, the workers didn't want to be there. The salad on the buffet was brown, the ice machine was out of ice, and one of the workers was listening to rap music with swears. I think Chuck E Cheese is going right with them.

Yeah, most I mean most likely. Next up is art Label putting out Stice's Satiricon. This is a continuation of what art Label is doing so far, bringing out some really just random, off the wall things. They say. This is jaw dropping piece of contemporary video art from two of the most

fiercely unique and prolific artists working today. We've got a feature length commentary with the director and composer, some isolated map interstitials, and twenty two different music videos on this or sorry twenty three plus a livestice performance and a live a cappella performance. It's got acapella. Yeah, acappella. I went and looked up the stills for this. I don't know. It doesn't look that great

to me. Looks like a really I assumed that it was very very intimidating to take this on, but yeah, it just does not look like it would be for me as a curio piece. It probably is very interesting. Well, who who wrote this copy? Because so Tyrcan is not the oldest known work of literature by several thousand years, Disan Gilgamesh over here. I don't know. I mean the concept looks interesting. Shot on a built in

laptop camera, then chopped up and collaged into gorgeous hypnotizing oblivion. Right, that might be a little many adjectives for me, but I definitely want to look at this Humboldt horror. Honey says no new title from mail you Scene. Reminder that it's February, which means there is an adult film sale that's gonna be on the mail you Scene site with two new titles up over there next week, and you can check that out then for sure. Yeah, the slip on this is pretty nice, lots of art, lots of detail.

It is art label, so all right, stands challenging me first. Stan says that Red Leave of Meato is actually cool guys, which I'm sure they are, And now it's saying Petronius may have been Sibner says Dison Gilgamesh would be the best early two thousand album. While you look that up, go on to the next one from the Umbrella Entertainment Partner label, which again is still fairly new to the OCEN game, but releasing some interesting things.

They're putting out a double feature of Stranded and Cosmic Psychos. Yeah, yeah, I really thought this was going to be a WILL release for sure. Absolutely, you know. Nick Cave said the Saints and then in Punk Rock and Nick Cave is usually right. Yes, we got interviews on here, some recent interviews too. It looks like a good release again, double feature. Oh yeah, Saints are awesome, dude. Everybody should be listening to the Saints. That's the real stuff. Looks fun. Next up is Totally

Wired, three films by Nathan Silver. This is coming from Factory twenty five this month, with the three films being Exit, Elena, Soft in the Head, and Stinking Heaven. The copy that they have on all three of these films they sound super similar. Like I get that you're grouping them together, but they sound like they could almost be the same movies. It's weird.

Uh. We got a short film on this by Nathan Silver and an interview by Ricky d'ambrose, and then a booklet essay with essays by Jonathan A. Letham, author of the Fortress of Solitude and Motherless, Brooklyn and Rick Alberson, and Cindy Silver. Yeah. Actory twenty five pretty good stuff. Have you gotten much from them yet? Yeah? I got some of their stuff. What's a good one? Didn't they do that one of those music documentaries? Yes, they've done one or two about the hold on great television

right when Will walks away? Uh oh, the Upset. Yeah. I liked that. The Leader documentary was really good. They've done a few of them. Yeah. They did the Fake It So Real. That was one that a lot of people love. The Material issue documentary. They did Skateboard recently, and then the big one. They just did that sex and broadcasting the w f m U. Right, I'm definitely gonna check that one out. Yeah. Yeah, and then they do they do some of those mumbo

core thing that's that's cool, that needs to happen. Uh. Next up is Where the Devil Roams from Yellow Veil Pictures. Uh. Interesting looking release here. This one says follows a family of traveling sideshow performers as they traverse the harsh conditions of Depression era America on a bloody search for eternal life.

This one says it will be a region a lock disc Devil in Detail, behind the scene documentary on the making of this, a short film by the Adams family called Ever a transcription of prologue poem of Where the Devil Rooms, and then an essay by Alexandra Heller Nicholas, would you look at that Yellow veil. They always do great stuff and they are somebody that I've been chasing for years to have on the channel, and uh guess what I got them.

Uh, they'll be on in an interview coming out next Monday on the Channel. Really really awesome and a stoke to finally be able to talk to them. Hopeful you guys check out their stuff because they're they're just put in a lot of hard work and so much hard work that they're literally just hard to have a conversation with because they are always busy. Wow. Yeah, I didn't even know that. That's cool man, nice surprise. It's a

it's a fun one. I'm hoping. I'm really hoping to finally nail down all the partner labels, but they also keep adding like four more every four. I can't track them all down. Let's get these memory people on to talk about carpet swatches. I was gonna seek him out that I forgot. Next up is Saturn's Cores putting out the Zombie Army from nineteen ninety one.

Here is the slip cover. This one says the Pentagon has purchased an abandoned insane asylum as a training ground for the lethal Ladies, an elite experimental female combat unit. Unfortunately, two former psychotic inmates were left behind in the asylum's deserted fallout shelter. One is a shock therapy obsessed lunatic who fancies himself as a psychiatrist. The other an unhinged nympho maniac hell bent on lethal seduction.

Together they wreak havoc by capturing soldiers and torturing them into mindless zombies by means of electricity. Trapped within the subterranean catacombs of the old Asylum, the Lethal Ladies must rally their troops and do battle with the flesh ripping hordes of the living dead. This is good what I'm talking about? You know? That's that's what a movie. Uh, this one says. It was directed by local high school drama coach Betty Stapleford and features an amateur cast of hundreds firing

uh live ammunition rounds. The Zombie Army is an outrageous eruption of exploding heads, melting faces, eyeball gouging acid showers, gut munching gore, and surprising nudity. I love that there's so many adjectives for everything else. And then surprising nudity. Right. Oh well, it's Betty says, go ahead. I just imagined in like the set with the live Betty'd be like, okay, you over there, the high school drama teacher directing to live ammo.

It just blow everybody to hell there. Oh man, that's hilarious, let's see. Directed by a woman and featuring an oddly empowering feminist slant, the Zombie Army would go on to become a nineties rental store and fanzine favorite. I gotta say this, I say not, that's not true. Just haven oddly empowering in the slant. Oh friends. Uh and we're saying so much

because again Uh. The release here commentary with Richard mag author of Analog Nightmares, The Shot on Video Horror Films of eighty two to ninety five and then Incubators of Death, the Asylum, and Horror cinema visual essay by you and me of someone's favorite productions. How about that? Uh? Hey, this was this was first off a long time ago. I feel like this was another lifetime ago. That was the first one we did, right, first first visual essay. Yes, we we had. By the time we did

this, we had done like four or five commentaries. But so I gotta tell you, guys, I didn't really understand the form. And and that will be clear if you see several of the visual essays that we've made, and this one actually turned out to be probably more like a traditional visual essay than anything else we've done, but it's still kind of different. It is certainly not more traditional than everything else we've done. This one is uh,

this one is very interesting and I think that people will enjoy it. And as I've said before, one of the things that we're really trying to do is kind of be innovative and push some boundaries of visual essays and commentaries, bring things into these that are not in many others. And uh, and that's why there's some surprising nudity I mean in a couple of them. Yeah, actually, that's that's true. I can't wait until we can announced that

when I just talk about everything to be fun, all right. So anyways, this visual essay is really fun. Yes, as we've alluded to, the movie itself not the greatest sov film ever, it is pretty fun. It is very fun. And as I alluded to, there is an extended music video number that is I think fantastic. I'm also I'm excited about the

Richard maug commentary. But anyway, Yeah, this is a fun visual essay that compares a lot of really interesting depictions of the asylum and actually takes the listener on a journey to an asylum yourself and I you can hear me screaming shit. I'm very excited to see what people think of this one, because man, this this was really fun to create and I'm eager to watch this one on the big screen in a living room for sure. This is one

that was pretty cinematic and how we made it. So anyways, check out the Zombie Army after our visual essay. This also has analog Outlaw Jr. Bookwalter himself comes on and discusses the zombie Army and then something really cool. We have three episodes of the vintage cable access show called The Video Makers on this It's a TV show hosted by writer and producer John Kowallanowski and I mean that just sounds fascinating. They have an archival contest video on this which the

contest video is funny as hell. I got to see that while we were working on the essay and it's it's funny. It's weird to get to see that. Nope, that's all behind the scenes stuff. You're in front of the scenes. Wow. Wow, mister producer, Sorry you don't you didn't have the card. I mean, what can I say? Zombie Army recommend picking it up. It's a fun release. The movie itself is definitely fun. Visual essays amazing. Twelve out of ten shut up. Saturn's cores were

great. I mean, that was and that's such a That release is chock full. It is and I really want to reiterate, there are good people in so many of these labels. If I had all the money in the world, I would buy every single release. Ross at Saturn's Corps is one of those people that I just undoubtedly he would be really fun to be close

friends with. All the random shit that he loves, the stuff that he's passionate about, the scouring across the country to find people behind these films that he's known forever, and he's one of like fifteen people in the world that have a VHS of it. Ross's just tops. He's a great dude.

That's it. Prosy in going on from there. April nineteenth, Warner Brothers is releasing Doom Patrol season four, and if you have not been picking up all four as they come out, you can just buy a complete series set that is releasing the same day. It's got for four seasons. They're really touting we have over sixty minutes of behind the scenes featurettes and unaired scenes,

sixty minutes over four seasons, sixty amazing. Next up, Dread Presents and Epic Pictures are releasing Double Blind from twenty twenty three with Pollyann and Macintosh, who was in The Woman You Might Know Her From. It says when an experimental drug trial goes horribly wrong, even young test subjects, after being kept sorry seven young test subjects, after being kept awake for days, must face the terrifying side effect of the drug. If you fall asleep, you die.

Trapped in an isolated medical facility, they desperately try to find a way to reverse the side effect of the trial, as one by one they succumb to sleep and death. Panic quickly takes hold and they turn on each other. It's left up to Claire, the group's n likely leaders, keep them together, find a way to escape, and somehow manage to stay awake. Good Luck, I hope they're still in their twenties. Man, I love

this. Mikey says, twelve out of ten. I bet if the Zombie Army took place in the Tokyo Dome and get twenty five out of ten and you're right, absolutely right. McIntosh was on The Walking Dead really interesting, probably right? I mean, do you have the Walking down at a lot of characters. Dustin says that you remind him of his grandma when you put

those glasses on. Will your grandma reminds me of my grandma? Film Trash Film Trash Film Trash Productions is doing a fundraiser for their new movie Fur and this one looks really fun. Josh Graves is the guy that runs Film Trash Productions. He's done a bunch of stuff, including The House that Eats Flesh Late checkout Chum Kill Cast. A couple of those are coming out from SRS Cinema later this year. This one looks really fun. You can get a

limited edition Blu ray and all that stuff if you're interested in donating. The link is there. It is one of those people that does just really fun, low budget stuff. You know who likes fur carpet cowboys? Oh you couldn't hold back. Okay, speaking of not holding back, I don't I even put this in my post, but I don't normally cover Masker video,

but I wanted people to make sure that they saw this. Masker Videos releasing Horrible High Heels and you can pre order this now and it's shipping supposedly in March. This is a grim story of a shoe factory owners to sent into madness as he is driven by perverse desires and begins a horrifying spree of brutally murdering and skinning women to create high heels. This is a notorious Cat three film, and it sucks that Masker got it. I really wish somebody else

had it. But yeah, people should know about this. It's uncut completely. And then the next one that really wanted people to see is Hunt Her, Kill Her. This one is supposed to be great. To have not seen this, but you can also pre order this now. Ryan's like, you know, I normally don't do this, but because these particular movies are so brutal in their treatment of women, I think it's my duty genuinely genuinely

spread the word. No, Horrible High Hills is actually pretty good and I think people would would appreciate it. Hunter Killer I've heard good things about. But then it's just regular Master stuff. After that, Dosk coma brutal duel, and then Ostra montag which this one, that one is uh here, I'll get it off the screen. But that one's supposed to be what's the

best one to show? Okay, that last one, it's supposed to be this big, you know, brutal thing, but it's not even not even that that that crazy supposedly anyways, and of course because we're we're Americans, we can show those covers the people's guts ripped out. We can chill the guts, but the not the utter guts. It's a really funny moment as I posted this and literally typed out, I don't normally cover Master mascre video. I go and post that on Twitter, and Massacre Video retweeted my post

that said I don't normally cover massacre video. Oh Man, Humboldt Horror says, what is that white thing? I believe it is a rat? Actually? Yes? Anyways, Next up some release details for Monk season five. Following everything that we just looked at, who Boy. March twenty sixth, we will get the fifth season from Keno. You get all sixteen of the episodes and then those are all restored in four K, and then a whole bunch of random things, even including an audio commentary for Mister Monk and the

Leper that is archival, and then some extra featurettes. And they've done really

great for these releases. I think they missed out on an opportunity in casting for doone because to me, you'd want to get Shai Shaloub oh will And finally, tonight last announcement April twenty second, in the UK, they are getting a four K release of The Holdovers, one of the best movies from twenty twenty three that we only got a Blu Ray release in the States, And because of this, I'm willing to bet, especially after Divine wins that

Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, we will likely get a four K here in the States eventually. Yeah, you can pre order this now from the UK if you are after it. Great great movie. Strongly recommend it's it's incredible. You haven't seen this one yet, have you? No? I didn't think you would care at all, but honestly, it is actually a movie that I think you would like a lot, which doesn't happen all that often. That's not true. I like so much stuff. That's that's what I

heard. I like. I love. My whole life is devoted to cinema. Yes, speaking of wait, was that the last announcement? That was

the last announcement. However, next week, just in case you forgot, McCabe and Missus Miller in four K coming from Criterion, Funeral Home from Screen Factory, The Kingdom Trilogy from movie that's the larsvon Treer TV Kingdom Trilogy, Terminal Man from Scream Factory, Uh, Witness for the Prosecution from Keena Lober, The Big Country from Keno, The Sting of Death from Radiance, Voodoo Passion that's one that Will's a big fan of. From Full Moon. What

was that? I mean, I have ordered it? Did you say no and then say you've ordered it? No? I said, yeah, okay, I thought you said no, I have ordered it, and I'll have you know. I love a lot of the movies that are on this list. Continue Amazing, The Road to Shame from Kena Lober, Burt Offerings, which is incredible from Keno, Waitress the musical that is supposed to be pretty decent oss one one seven from Keno Keino releases so much The Thomas Crown Affair

Candyland, which I want to check this out. Supposedly this is like a borderline trashy film and it's supposed to be pretty order. Live, yes, live, Why is it? Why is it not borderline just because they show a butt? Not just because of that anyway, it's a butt with a is that a syringe or across? It's a syringe, and then there's a cross, and then there's a truck. There's a truck and short shorts. It's a it's it's not it's not borderline. It is and let's celebrate that.

You don't know that you literally teach exploitation. I want it to be trashy anyways. Uh, you you have a request, Ronnie says, Will can you talk about Voodoo Passion? That's pretty cool? You mean like the I mean it's a full moon release, so it's not gonna have any What do you like about it? What's the movie? But I mean, oh, show Man's see a Long Time? It is dreamy. What happens on it? Oh? I remember? So hold I'll get let me get my let me get the DVD that I have it sucking fresh my memory. Let's

see, Mike, he says. Masker video is something I do want to get. Those last two. I've been lucky that I haven't run into trouble with them, but had friends who dealt with some bs. Masker for you, so full moment actually did this. This is really cool. They put out a DVD set of Jess Franco and let's see if you can see this on the camera. You put the spines together and you can. We don't get enough of that anymore. Yeah, so Voodoo Passion is the last of

the set. Now, I believe you can show this. I very much like like this box art, and this is why I wanted to get it, because I knew I had a funny description, more coherent than many of Franco's dreams state erotic horror films. Voodoo Passion also stars frequent collaborator Green Gambier and features a groovy score by Walter Bomgardner. I just I love the more coherent line. So yeah, it is, it's very dream like. It's it's you know, a lot of bathing scenes and preparations for rituals and rights

and h and Jack Taylor's in it. That's it. We had a question for you from Craig. Did you ever see sideways Alexander Peene sideways with gm shit in the theater? Oh my god, let me tell you what. Virginia Madsene's not reading that guy's novel. Okay, that would never happen. Virgin I don't care how sad she is. I don't care how emotionally vulnerable she is. There is no way that guy is getting her to read his five hundred page unpublished crap novel. I will say this. I will say

this. I enjoyed the performance of Randall TeX's Cobb Rest in Peace and the part where Giamatti throws a fit about the idea of drinking Merleau. That was funny. But the rest of that shit, Oh my god, Oh those

people made me so mad, he says. FYI, Dennis and I will be guesting on what will likely be Ryan's favorite episode of the Incinerator podcast, as we'll be burning Clint Eastwood films That is coming out on February fifteenth, And if you've heard Dennis talk another podcast, you know he'll have some killer Eastwood stories. That sounds awesome. Way awesomer than sideways. I just you

know what it's stories about. It's just there's a there's a social strata of people that I do not mesh with, and definitely they don't like me either, and unfortunately they're all in charge of my university. Wonder boy, is that the one with Michael Douglas. Have you good night, Brandon? Thanks

for hanging out tonight. I haven't seen that now that we are done with announcements, nor we don't have too much of a discussion topic because there's so much for us to cover for everything else, anything else, for ongoing projects or stuff getting announced soon that you want to tease about any visual essays or commentaries, I gotta talk about something, you know what do I'm a man

of my word, making sure I'm not forget anything. So a couple months ago I did a issued a challenge or I was issued a challenge, and I issued a challenge in response, which is that I would watch Mandy again as many times as someone showed a proof of purchase for the documentary invaluable from our friends at SINNEPS Films, and on the one hand didn't move too many units for sent out. Sorry guys, I put. On the other hand, thank God Almighty, I only had to watch Mandy again once. So

I'm here having now watched Mandy three times. I've seen it. The one person that watched it for will to have to do it is Spaghetti. Here highlighting highlighting, Spaghetti definitely highlights. Spaghetti good good guy. Spaghetti's a good guy. So I watched Mandy again and I will now give my review. Oh that movie is two hours long and the entirety of it is in slow

motion, and just couldn't stand. I do not understand. I mean, every movie is someone's favorite movie, and it seems like Mandy is a lot of people's favorite movie in here. And I respect it, but but I've given it a go. I've watched it three times. That's six hours I have watched. I could have watched show up the amount of time so here.

So it's like, all right, a movie tells you what it wants to be and then it even needs to be that and it's good, or if it doesn't do what it says it's going to do, I don't like it. And I I found emotion to be really hard to deal with. I mean, the scene where the freaking cult drives by what's her name, Nick Cage's lady Lady friend. It takes like a full minute. It's not

necessary. And I know that the scorer is by this legendary, legendary Scandinavian composer, and it was like one of the last things he did before he passed away. So I hate to speak ill of the deb I just don't feel like the score matches. And you know, I looked up some of the making of and everything and found that the movie was directed by George Cosmodos's son Painous. I got all that. You gotta say, it's an app it's an apt appellation. Oh wow, heinous Cosmotos just didn't work for me.

The the you know, the concept is fine, you know, Lumberjack versus Cult, but that's a seventy eight minute movie, man, So you know, it had some interesting imagery and clearly the they were they were artists. But I just said the writing wasn't solid to me, and I tried. I went through it, like I know that you all think I hate everything, and Craig just said he's afraid that I'm gonna hate deaf crocodile movies and all this suff I don't hate everything that's come out in the last twenty

five years. You know. I was just saying the other day, you know what, one of my favorite Christmas movies is For Christmases with Reese Witherspoon and and Vince Vaughn. I think that movie is great. I'm not I'm not a snob. I like I don't know. I like all kinds of stuff, but I don't like Mandy. Folks says, you gotta drop acid before you watch it. Yeah, I guess. I don't know. Last time I dropped acid, I made an MTV Cribs video of the apartment I

was living in at the time. It was like nineteen ninety nine maybe, and I'm glad that video disappeared. I hope it never shows back up. It was pretty funny though. Yeah. So I watched Mandy, and I'm not going to do it again. I'll tell you that one I did. I did my time. What'd you want to talk about? Fourth time? The charm? Oh? What did you want to talk about? Special features?

I just is there anything, uh, you know, not not that we can say any titles, but anything that we've been working on that we, you know, want to want to talk about. You know, hype up some of these visual essays or commentaries because there's a lot about the thoughts about to get announced. I'll tell you what some of these things. Some of these things have been so hard to complete. I'm like, am I working on a Synapse release right now? It's gonna get delayed and delayed.

We're not We're not working on SETPS release right now. But I would do a commentary. I don't think Payinis would care for it. Spaghetti says, what do I have to do for a Sideways rewatch or an invested buy in for an entire season of football? I'll watch Sideways again before I watch a football game, It's for sure. I just don't get, like, what do you What is it entertaining about watching people kind of hurt each other? I don't at least wrestling is pretend. I don't really like. Yeah,

I just continue the football. But yeah, Sideways I didn't care for. I care for a lot of movies from the last twenty five years, though like I liked I'm sure I liked something, Oh, I liked it Follows that was good. I liked most of the Mad Max for like that. We're gonna go movies from the last every movie over the last twenty five years that you liked, Well, it's been hard. I haven't gotten to I haven't gotten to watch a lot of movies from the past twenty five years because

of my children. So a lot of what I watched is kids movies and stuff I like. I have liked a lot of movies that that haven't been popular. Like I liked The Great and Powerful Oz, the Sam Raino movie. I thought that was actually really good. I don't even know what to say to that. You know, I am, It's I mean, it's not great. Folks wants to know if you like the film GMO? Did I see that? Is that the one that Bernon Herdzog is in the spaghetti

bathtub? Yeah? That's cool. So now everybody's saying, I am characters from Alexander Payne movies. Is that right? None of them are saying, George, Oh thank you, Mary. That's incredibly kind to you. At least, well, at least I hope I'm not about Schmidt. That's Mary said happy birthday and gave fifty bucks. That's incredible. Oh, that's cool,

that's fair. Nice. Yeah. Producing these special features has been crazy because we we had I'll say I think it's sim to say we we had a backlog of overlapping deadlines that just did not work, so so that necessitated some some finessing. But things are hopefully gonna calm down after the next couple of days. Do I like guy, Man? Yeah? Oh I think that. What's the saddest music in the world. I love that movie?

Yeah, for sure. Oh god man. Actually, you know what, I'll tell you why I saw Downsizing because I was working on an essay about Todd Browning's The Devil Doll, which was an adaptation of burn Witch Burned by the great sci fi writer Abraham Merritt. And I tell you, man, somebody on the Downsizing team. I'm not saying it was Alexander Payne. I'm not saying it was any particular writer, but somebody ripped that shit off The Devil Doll. That whole movie is from a subplot of The Devil Doll.

And and you know, I didn't like it. It just didn't go anywhere for me. I don't know. It was beautiful, beautiful shop. Uh. Jake wants to know. Have you guys peeped the trailer for Harmony, Karen's upcoming movie. It's something I liked. Uh. I actually did like that spring Breakers movie. I thought that was actually pretty good. Have you heard about the rollout for this new one? Though? It's premiering at a strip club or something. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, so it can

be authentic or whatever. Yeah. Okay, mister Hollywood, Chris is going all in to try to get you to be grumpy, says I need to have you on to do a watch along a Mandy. Well, it will be almost as long as this. And the kind of strip club though, I mean, like, is it gonna be like one of those Christal and Champagne room strip clubs or it's gonna be like this. Let me tell you there's harmony. There's no way that it's something like that. Well, I'll

tell you, man, where they should do it. There used to be this strip club up in Bluefield and it was buying the long John Silvers lady. It was like a double wide trailer, the stripper polishly holding up the damn roof and it's alone Johnson you know the stinch. Oh man, Uh yeah, they should have it at Lady Goodna's wonder if that place is still there. It's a good question. Any thoughts on the Coen Brothers news.

Did you read about that they're reuniting for a bloody horror movie supposedly? Oh okay, well you know right's right and never the Twains shall meet amazing. Yeah, I mean, I'm cool with the Coen Brothers. Coen Brothers are

amazing. Yeah. So we can't really say anything except to say that we hope we have some really big news that we can share soon, Like there's some there's a lot of like smaller projects going on, and then there's some really freaking big projects and uh until they happen on like the Anti attack.

So stay tuned, faithful listeners. It's been an odd time because, you know, the whole public announcement of someone's favorite happened in September, and since that moment, we've been working on at least one thing, literally since since before it was announced publicly. It's been crazy and literally none of this we've not really had to seek out anything yet. It's mostly people asking us if we'd be interested, checking out what we've done, and then saying yeah,

let's do something. And so far it's it's been a lot of really cool projects and not really anything that I've you know, not been stoked to work on. And the people that we've been doing stuff with is great, Like they've already been announced and they'll be shipping soon. Terror Vision releases of Game

of Killers. We got Sean from Foo for Thought on there and he wrote a brilliant visual essay that is just an incredible piece on Barry Chan, somebody that is very undersung in the whole martial art genre that's still working to bring you know, education and just a community aspect to it. And it's an

incredible educational piece on somebody that has never gotten any love like that. But what's really funny we wrote that visual essay not knowing that he's only ever been called Barry Chan in the States. He didn't even know that he was called Barry Chan here. He had no idea. Yeah, hilarious, that's cool. Yeah, So I don't know, we've been able to announce what there

or four things so far. We've got the Swiss Conspiracy coming out this month, and Spider Labyrinth has come out, and now the Zombie Army Conspiracy shipping. Now by the way, Orbit got that in today, some other places have got that in. So yeah, check out that one. That's great. It's been really it's been really cool to, you know, bring in some people from the academic world, people from journalism, you know, critics, independent critics, and just kind of get all these voices jumbled together.

Yeah, I'm hopeful for a productive year. We'll see, we'll see. There are definitely some stories that I want to tell, but I can't until we can say what it's about. So are some good stories that we just can't say it with surprising nudity. Stan wants to know what is the retail on Zombie Army, and it is twenty seven for the Slipless and thirty forty nine with a slip unless you are a subscriber. I feel like we need a Danz a parody song called Slipless. I kind of wish i'd ended the

broadcast as you did. That last note. Did not work out any other questions before we before we call it a night. Any any other anecdote you wanted to bring up their will? Oh? Sure, I got a few. I think this has been a nice shambling two hours and forty minutes. That's that's actually be short for us, right, it's pretty brief for us. That's why I feel like we're trying to buy time a little bit. You know, why been drinking water? All right? I haven't gone off

on some meandering tail. That's okay. You know, health is important. I want to beat this thing. Oh gosh, Chris says, when will we get another Battle of Dodson and Long The whole uh in depends of the genre thing has kind of had to be put on hold considering how busy everything has gotten. Yeah, I'd like to do a like what do you call those things where all the restlers are in the ring at the same time.

Yeah, rumb will bring in uh Rount and somebody else. Who was that guy from Chasing Labels Step Yeah Lard is blowing everything that he can into some of those action titles and then getting nothing at the end of it. Uh. Oh man, he's the best dude. I love that guy. Yeah, Jeremy long Man, you know he's good people. I love that everybody's waiting for the punch luck just like one of his jokes. Oh. On that note, we will call it a night. Thanks everybody for hanging out

and thanks for watching. It's been a really incredible time for us and for physical media, and uh can't wait to do it again. So from all of us to you, let's uh, let's call it a night, have a good one. Thanks will bye, Thank you for watching the Disconnected.
