The 88 Films Thread

Unless it's a title that would justify spending thousands of pounds to stump up for a new transfer (which these aren't).

Hope so

Seriously great news! I'll put the cables away now Stephen, I'd just found the ball-gag as well, damn.

As God is my witness, I didn't know about these.

The power tool thing at the end is making me think they also have Slumber Party Massacre or Driller Killer...

Well lets face it there is a huge amount of slashers 88 could release, many of which haven't been released in the UK since the 80's and the video nasty carry on. 88 Italian could offer us lots of titles, theres still loads of Italian titles that haven't got UK releases or decent UK releases at least.

It's interesting that 88/Exposure have got Zombi Holocaust and Burial Ground, I wonder why they didn't fit with either Shamelesses or Arrows MO? Maybe the rights were too much money or they weren't optioned to them?

Will 88 be bringing out Burial Ground? i like that film a lot and only have a R1import of it that looks like someone filtered the print through italian coffee before placing it to dvd.

That's the best way to watch it...actually it is one of my favourite zombie films, I love it's completely out of place political message in amongst all the sleazy and gore.

I still have my VHS of Burial Ground, i loved the film from the first watch, it's so odd. Also it has the unique quality of having a woman bitten on the nipple by a zombie child man-actor Haha.

I will grab em both, Zombie on day one but Peter Bark may have to wait a bit( it's a nice bit of Italian cheese but my Vipco dvd will do for a while) It does seem odd that Arrow didn't go for Zombie as a natural mate to ZFE, but good news for the UK horror scene none the less, but I also wonder what Exposure will have in store instead...

[Demdike@Cult Labs]

Arrow seem more than happy with their MGM connections to bother about zombie films nowadays.
