You and me both.

I'm delighted that Top Sensation is getting a single disc release for this reason.

It's still $25 plus shipping even for the single disc. A lot to pay for a film i may not even like.

These releases do hold their value though (and in some cases increase) so even if you weren't keen on it you could probably easily sell it on without losing much, if anything.

I do agree that they are fairly expensive though - after all it's a buyer's market and there is a lot more you could get for your cash elsewhere. However, the obvious care, effort, and attention that go into these releases are worth the premium - at least for me. Personally, I like to support labels like this as much as I can as if they were to disappear I couldn't see anyone else releasing these kind of titles... especially not to this high standard.

Have you got Top Sensation?

Is it a film you rate?

I haven't, no.

It's one I plan to pick up sometime though.

I don't think I've seen it, but will look into that single disc release.

I picked up the 2 DVD edition recently and have given both discs a spin, although I haven't watched the film itself.

"We restocked the Camera Obscura Filmdistribution titles yesterday including Nine Guests for a Crime and Killer Reserved Nine Seats (which I understand is almost sold out)" (Diabolik)

I've ordered the Killer dvd myself btw,I've got all the CO gialli releases on dvd anyway.
And I suspect it will sell out first.

They quite smartly kept the same packaging, so if you did decide to upgrade and get the BD releases from now on, it's not really noticable. The tiny DVD logos are now tiny Blu-ray logos.

Consistent packaging across a numbered collection of varying formats, take note how it's done, 88 Films!
