I remember rumours of a deluxe German release a couple of years ago, but all has gone very quiet on that front. |
I agree with you there.
I know of so many films that I wish would be released in the UK but no.
The brillliant French supernatural horror VIDOCQ and the excellent Spanish slasher TUNO NEGRO to name just two.
I have the French dvd of the former and the US dvd of the latter.
But I read that Tartan were supposed to release TUNO NEGRO but declined to do so, a few years ago I think.
These films are not arty farty but have an audience for horror fans in the UK.
Alas no to the distributors.
Whoever the distributors are, sometimes or most times, they will release films onto dvd which THEY think are good for them, forgetting about the horror fans.
These films have a cult following and you only have to search the net for the proof of that.
The distributors DO have the money to release these films,
I disagree otherwise.
