I like the Hysteria Continues commentaries as they are usually quite informative and interesting, and well delivered by the various members, particularly Justin Kerswell doing the lead presenter and moderator role.

That probably tips the balance in favour of a purchase for me.

I'll stick with my Blue Underground MANIAC and Grindhouse Cannibal Holocaust thank you.

I envy your self-control – you have more than me!

Ebola and Vigilante, possible Cannibal Holocaust, if the Extras are good.

Perfectly happy with the Shameless DVD for the actual Film

I'm not going to buy any of them especially not Ebola Syndrome thank you very much. I will buy The Iceman Cometh and the as yet unannounced Jackie Chan in Gorgeous which is coming out in December.

The other distributer was Black Horse, found the cover (It was driving me nuts)

And they really splashed out on the artwork as well!
