If you are a fan of this kind of crap then you will lap it up and more power to you but it's my personal opinion (Yeah, like assholes -we all got one!) that they are forsaking their core audience that made them what they are today in some misguided attempt at becoming a "respected" company. Criterion, anyone?

The forthcoming Buttgereit titles will do well for them - even these are being portrayed as Art house rather than horror - and there will always be the Fanboys who will buy every title they release even if it is a boring ass stink-fest like Waking Life or some Fassbinder excretment. Lets just hope that they have some awesome shit lined up for later on next year.

Now before I'm put up on a cross next to Mr H I would like to say that I have loved Arrow for many a year and their releases have been superb, I could wank over Videodrome, The Scarlet Box, Nekro 2 and, I'm sure, the coming Deep Red but I feel Mr H is right and Arrow will move away from what once made them great to the detriment of the fans that got them there.

Personally I think they are still covering all the bases they always have, but done even better?
