What Have You Bought Recently?

Where the muggin's did you find that? ha

Bought it from a former schoolmate in Plymouth who's moving to sunnier climes. Interestingly one of the films is Vipco's unreleased (timecoded) video of Night Of The Bloody Apes.

Absolutely excellent cover art but the print is basically the same as the heavily cut Satanica video.

Ok,quick question.Does anyone have the play exclusive steelbook of Terminator Salvation? If you do can you tell me if the uk and irish ratings logos that i've seen on some pictures (like below) are just stuck on the front of the case or part of it?

[Paul@TheOverlook]

UK and Irish certs are just stuck on and easily removed.

[Stephen@Cult Labs]

Thanks Paul.I'll get that ordered in the morning then

[Philleh]

Nice haul there! Could make you a pretty penny too!

Beats watching them.

Yeah, don't watch 'em, Vin - they'll make your eyes bleed!

I have to say, it's been quite a weird turn of events that the Vipco vids and DVDs have become so collectible. When they first released DVDs as pan and scan, transferred from poor VHS sources (in most cases, at any rate) and charged £19.99 for them I thought they were taking the piss and never bought any. Vipco were publicly trashed as being rip-off artists and had zero credibility in the online horror community. Now, look at things now; now Vipco seem to have gained some kind of cult status amongst collectors. Very odd. I still think Mike Lee was a piss-taker though and have very little respect for him. Just my opinion, of course.

On the whole I'd sooner have my tongue nailed to the M1.

Watched Optimum's THE DEER HUNTER yesterday and whilst the Vietnam scenes looked stupendous,some of it wasn't up to par.Especially the darker scenes.
