Finally! Hope it includes some great extra features (most especially appreciated would be a Scott commentary track but interviews with Berenger and Rogers would be awesome). What I hope for most is a sterling transfer of course. I never really thought this would actually happen. Remains heavily in contention for the title of Scott's most underrated feature. Certainly it's one of my own top tier favorites of his work ("Is it love, Mike? I hope so. I want it to be worth it for your sake."). Cool use of the old poster art too for the cover design (I think I may even still have this version of the poster).

Scream Factory announced they are releasing Superstition on Blu-ray. So they are one of the two other companies that have licensed StudioCanal titles.

Disappointed that Shout were in fact one of the companies with a SC deal. Now these titles will forever be overpriced (except when they offer a generous 5% discount! /s).

I wish that pretty much anyone else got their hands on these SC titles. Bummer.

Hey, it could've been Twilight Time...
Very happy someone's releasing these two, especially Superstition.

That's Universal's Bela Lugosi Collection minus Murders in the Rue Morgue

That makes me wonder if Kino managed to snag Murders in the Rue Morgue in their licensing deal with Universal.

Man, I recall renting Talk to Me on HDDVD! Nice another universal title making it over to Blu, surprised Shout is the one doing it.

I bought the French BD but sadly the audio had lots of new music on it for some reason.

Hope Black Cat is a strong release. Looking forward to catching this as well as Criterion’s Detour for a nice double bill of Ulmer.

This is great news! Especially since I think the Second Sight edition is OOP.

$70 for a Tom Atkins doll and a slipcover, great deal. I think I'll stick with my existing feature-packed $7 Blu-ray thanks

Amazon is showing Legend of the Seven Golden Vampires from Shout on April 9. Been waiting for a re-release of this for a looong time.

You are greatly underestimating the market for a Tom Atkins figure.

If it's more people than Tom Atkins' immediate family, you are surely correct

Tom Atkins is an 80s sex icon and I will not have him slandered.

I don't care about the version with the doll, but the collector's edition Blu-Ray with be a worthwhile release IMO if it includes the theatrical cut (in addition to the director's cut), as Scream Factory says they are working to include. I've never bought any of the existing Blu-Rays since they didn't have both versions.
