Similar to the ones in your final list it's just a case of getting round to buying the majority of them. However some such as The Dracula Saga i feel i may have missed out on.

I can vouch for all these. Fopp have Contraband for £3 if you are near one. Not with the lenticular fancy cover, just the awful Slippery Jack artwork.

Day of the Outlaw was actually one you recommended to me ages ago back when we did the top ten snowy films.
I may be able to call to Fopp tomorrow. I've never seen Contraband in the Bristol store though. For three quid I'd grab it immediately.

I can whole heartedly recommend The (Cannon) Ninja Trilogy, J.

I can't really think of 10, I tend to just buy everything, but I suppose this list of films are some which I'd love to be able to get on Blu without going region free.



Strange Days - this is the main one, I'm going to buy the German disc soon I think.
Nightbreed (The Cabal Cut) - I know there is a Spanish one but it has no supplementary material.
Return of the Living Dead (Part 2 and Part 3) - Will Part 2 ever come out - it's WB so probably not... Hopefully 3 will come out in Europe after the American one.
Zombi 4 and Zombi 5 - Just because...
The Abyss - There have been a few hints that this might be coming at some point.
The Beach - Quite honestly I've given up on this one...
Sorcerer - There was an American disc but it's OOP
SubUrbia - Lost Richard Linklater film that I don't think has even been on DVD... Thoughts are that the soundtrack is to blame, featuring acts such as Sonic Youth, Beck, Ministry etc.

It is odd that The Abyss still hasn't seen a blu release. But then neither has True Lies. Sorceror is currently available on Amazon marketplace for £13 plus delivery Justin.

Thanks, quick look on the bluray.com database and it seems it was re-issued this last April! Happy days, that can wait until after Christmas but I'll pick that up.
