3 goodies arrived this month.
Own those editions myself, all vey nice.
Just posted my spaghetti pickups and here are a few non SW pickups I got in-between:
Left to right: “Roadgames” blu ray (UK release special edition by Indicator) “Eurocrime” boxset blu-ray (Koch media release featuring “Convoy Busters” , “Double game” AKA “Violent Turin” , “Fear in the city” & the Eurocrime documentary by Mike Malloy)
And last but certainly not least “Rider on the rain” (US blu-ray by Kino Lorber) one of my favorite Charles Bronson movies.
The Eurocrime set i highly recommend for fans of the genre. One of my personal favorite genres besides the spaghetti westerns by the way.
I love the Vincent Price/Roger Corman ‘Poe’ films…
This will be the crowning glory…
There have been some crappy Stephen King adaptions, but I regard these as three of the very best…
Me too, they’ve been my favourite films to watch for months now. I won’t be getting this region B Masque of the Red Death though because I already have it in the scream factory Vincent Price Collection.
Edit: recently bought this btw…
Here are my non-Spaghetti western movie pickups for this week:
All three editions here are gifts from a good buddy of mine from the UK. As you can see he sent us some Eurocrime goodness. And also a great Christopher Walken crime movie.
Pre-ordered (due out in April):
This’ll be my first 4k UHD purchase. I’ve got a 4k player up in the bedroom but it’s attached to a regular 1080p telly and, besides, we don’t watch films upstairs anymore given that we’ve sacrificed our bedroom to the baby and we now sleep on a mattress in our living room.
My principal set-up in the living room couldn’t be more pitiful. I’ve got a 50" Sony Bravia 1080p telly which was a bloody good TV once upon a time but it’s not 4k and I’m not replacing it until it starts going wrong. My blu-ray player no longer plays blu-rays so I only use it as a DVD player, and I play all my blu-rays through my ps3. Yep, I said psTHREE. I bought my son a ps4 but I never got around to upgrading myself and now that the ps5 is the console of choice I’ve got a bona fide relic. A ps3, a broken blu-ray player and an old telly. Cutting edge, eh?
Anyway, I’m not going to start replacing my entire blu-ray collection with UHDs but, you know, if an upgrade look sexy enough I’ll look into it.
Recently bought the DVD release of Taxi Hunter from Right Stuf Anime for around $20
I’ve never heard of that one mate, and just looking at that cover I can’t decide whether it looks terribly brilliant or brilliantly terrible! Either way, it looks interesting to me.
New DVD set:
New blu-ray:
Bought from Play-asia
Also wann order from them at some point. Too bad a lot of the discs I want are not all cheap.
Btw those who wanna order from then, please do use this link:
Weirdly enough, the Hong Kong discs I’m looking for are cheaper on Play-asia than anywhere else (eBay, dddhouse, etc.) I paid $27 for the one I posted here. On eBay, I would’ve had to pay $35-40 in total.

Now, I gave up buying The Walking Dead after season 6 and I gave up watching the show altogether after season 8, because seasons 7 and 8 were so poor. However, I’m led to understand that seasons 9 and 10 were significantly better than their immediate predecessors and, since it’s ending after an extended season 11 I thought, sod it, let’s finish the collection off. I’ve still got to pick up seasons 8 and 9 (10 isn’t out on blu-ray yet and 11 obviously hasn’t aired yet) but this season 7 set was briefly available on Amazon for the princely sum of £6.99, so at that price I jumped on it. Who knows, maybe it’ll be better if I binge it.
