When they arrive to spend the weekend in a large country villa, the guests are expecting a chance to unwind and make merry. Unfortunately, their host has neglected to mention that there are zombies in the basement. They're feeling peckish too...

Boats are being destroyed and people are going missing. Veteran newsman Ned Turner (John Huston, celebrated director of Escape to Victory and Annie) thinks it's connected with the construction of an undersea tunnel. Something has been disturbed, something that's out for blood but no-one realises just how dangerous it is: there are worse things in the sea than sharks... With a cast of Hollywood legends like Henry Fonda (Once Upon A Time in the West), Shelley Winters (Night of the Hunter), Claude Akins (Rio Bravo) and Bo Hopkins (The Wild Bunch), Tentacles is a classic seventies monster movie, blending ecological ruminations with sudden shocks. 88 Films are proud to present this magnificent maritime monstrosity in this beautiful new blu-ray edition.

From Andrew Davis, the director of The Fugitive, The Package and Under Siege, comes this riveting, turbo-charged crime thriller starring action legend Chuck Norris (Good Guys Wear Black, Invasion U.S.A.) in what most critics and fans consider to be his best film. Exploding with heart-stopping chases and lethal martial arts confrontations, it's a daring and suspenseful adventure that pits an honest cop against two vicious crime lords and his own department. Eddie Cusack (Norris) is a Chicago detective who plays by his own rules - a dangerous habit, especially when he breaks the "code of silence" to blow the lid off a deadly police cover-up. Now an outcast, he receives little help from his embittered fellow officers when he's hurled into a blistering battle against rival drug kingpins. But Cusack is a one-man army, waging war on the criminals with his razor-sharp wits, lightning-fast karate moves and a remote-controlled, rocket-equipped tank!

general 4k 88 films are releasing the witchfinder general in 4k UHD according to someone on blu-ray.com |
They posted on social media a photo of all the film reel cans saying coming soon in UHD. It’ll be a nice one to have but I haven’t watched the Blu-ray that I bought years ago yet it’s still in my watch pile! |

I wonder why they've put Charlie Chan on the cover art? |
An older gentleman in HMV was trying to have a good look at this box set without drawing attention to himself this morning. He failed I clocked him and grabbed something off the shelf haha. |
Not terribly interested in watching the films on this set again, but the extras sound great. It's especially nice that Walker himself is still doing interviews; he must really be getting on a bit by now, so heartening to know he's (hopefully) doing alright. |

I wouldn't think like that. To me it's a Pete Walker set of films. I can see that to others they are smut, brown paper bag, top shelf stuff. But until you mentioned it , the thought never crossed my mind. |

Same, I know that the contents are tame, even though it says sexploitation on the front, but I guess the older generation are perhaps still a bit more reserved at least in public. |

more to come i was on a website called normanic which says they are re-releasing dragon fist and to kill with intrigue they are also meant to releasing the magic crystal by wong jing but the website i was on does' not say when they are releasing them they just say they have licensed them for a future release. |
Extras: High Definition (1080p) Blu-ray™ presentation in 2.39:1 Aspect Ratio 5.1 English DTS-HD MA Optional English SDH Audio Commentary with Sean Hogan and Barry Forshaw Would You Like to Dance - An Interview with Composer Bill Conti You Like The Chase - Filming The Thomas Crown Affair The Making of a Masterpiece - Making Of Documentary Theatrical Trailer Stills Gallery Nice artwork as well. Where's McTiernan's commentary and the Windmills of Your Mind music video? :rolleyes: It's still a film i really like ever since i saw it at the cinema so will be grabbing a copy. |
I'll also buy that because The Thomas Crown Affair is a film I've liked and appreciated since, like you, I saw it at the cinema. I'll be keeping my R1 DVD for John McTiernan's commentary and buying this for the HD picture and sound, and the extras that aren't on the DVD. |
Of all dvd companies 88 have the best cover artwork. Really need to look up the artists. I mean the anaconda and Carrie 2 art were much better then the original! Shame about no new input from John mcterrian. I don't know what's going on since he got out, he did an interview for total film and director an ad for a video game but thats it. I know the major studios aren't lineing up to work with him anymore but tbh it was that way before the scandal (his would have been projects were set up with nuimage/millennium, arclight and the very dodgy bauer martinez studios). I know he had a couple of films set up with hannibal pictures but he had some falling out with them. Otherwise heard nothing other then he was desperate for cash to keep hold of his property/ranch. Thought if he was thay desperate he might have agreed to an interview on the film. |

1 Attachment(s) 'The Medallion' (2003) - Blu-Ray coming soon from 88Films Release date: October 23 "After high-kicking Hong Kong cop Eddie Yang (Jackie Chan, ‘Rush Hour’) dies in the line of duty, he finds himself reanimated by an ancient mystic talisman, now with superpowers at his disposal! His return stuns his former girlfriend Nicole James (Claire Forlani, ‘Meet Joe Black’) and partner Arthur Watson (Lee Evans, ‘There’s Something About Mary’). The trio must rejoin forces to take on a similarly supernaturally enhanced villain, Snakehead (Julian Sands, ‘Warlock’) and his right-hand man Calvin (Scott Adkins, ‘John Wick 4’). Shot in English in the UK by director Gordon Chan (‘Fist of Legend’) and choreographer Sammo Hung (‘Ip Man’), ‘The Medallion’ delivers a whole new kind of magic to a Jackie Chan action epic!" Extras TBA NOTE: This title will only be available for <1yr due to licensing restrictions so this will come and go in the blink of an eye] |
yes and all the films that they are releasing it as to be the medallion which is a awful movie it's worse than the Chinese zodiac which is just bad but at least they are releasing three other films that are far far better than this film. |

The feet and fists fly fast and funky on sunny Greek locations, on Hong Kong’s mean streets and amid the ruins of an ancient UFO.

88 Films are keeping my costs down in the final quarter. I do fancy Iron Warrior though. |
Is Magic Cop a Sequel or can it be watched as a standalone film? |
Yeah disappointing line up although they have said that's not nessicary all their 4th quarter line up, just the ones they can confirm for sure will be released this year. But yeah not enough variety and too many rereleases. |

I also remember it being loads of fun, although it's been a few years. |
