Saying that shout factory are just as bad with not shipping out of America but at least there stuff can be gotten easily.

I hope 88 film get all the stuff he has released

I was just thinking the same thing, they should make an effort to re-release all his good stuff just to piss the twat off.
Starting with Messiah of Evil.,and Butcher baker ,Nightmare Maker.

I hope 88 Films can get the Eerie Midnight Horror Show as well!

Would also love to see a blu of Julie Darling

speculation the FULCI title may be VOICES FROM BEYOND.

That would piss Bill off big time. Put in a request on FB for someone to screenshot the next rant if they do. Missed the last one and they always make me chuckle.

Judging from his posts on his own FB page (and other pages), I'm not quite sure what this Code Red guy is up to. After having read a few of his posts, I honestly can't imagine anybody doing business with him. Not a single post without a rant, an insult, or a threat. Strangely enough, people from the film business obviously still talk to and deal with him.

Back to 88 Films. After three orders directly from their official shop, I'd describe myself as a satisfied customer. All orders arrived safe and sound, and their responses to enquiries per email are fast and friendly. I am from mainland Europe, and I'm happy to have a reliable alternative to the big online shops when I want to buy this small label's products.

Having said that, I still don't think that anybody should feel bad about looking for the cheapest prices out there. Nobody wants to pay more than necessary, especially when money is tight. By buying their stuff from high street retailers and big online shops you still support 88 Films.

"Sad news - the director of the crazy 3D slasher SILENT MADNESS, Simon Nuchtern, tells us that the company that held his film went out of business and the original negative, and prints, have been destroyed.

We were, of course, enquiring about leasing the movie. So we are putting it out there - anybody know if a 35mm print has survived? Let us know!

We can't promise we can get this license, of course, but it would be our worthwhile duty to connect anyone holding a print of this film with its director. Perhaps we can still save its existence..."

The Slasher Classics Collection so far:



We just need those last two to be Just Before Dawn and Nightmare in a Damaged Brain to piss Bill off even more.

Would be great to see something like Fatal Games finally get a release though... plus it would make a nice companion to Graduation Day.

Hopefully LADY STAY DEAD will follow as well.

Never heard of it in my life. Then again, I've never heard of Silent Madness either

I was thinking the same re: Fatal Games myself, a pretty solid, if unremarkable slasher. I have the 23rd Century DVD which, if I remember rightly, was a VHS rip
