Doesn’t say, sorry. I just saw the news on this tweet from HMV -

Nice to see 88 releasing the Jet Li film The One in November.

Can't say i know the Virginia Madsen film Zombie High though.

It's 1987, before Madsen hit big.

Interestingly, I was just watching the Barbara Crampton interview on Arrow's Re-Amimator disc and she said competition was tough among the female horror stars at the time and she actually auditioned for the role in Candyman which ultimately went to Madsen.

Not going to lie, I was hoping more titles would be in there.

Obviously not the newer releases but there are quite a few older ones not currently in it.

Maybe in a couple of days?

It's worth searching individual titles. As a test I noticed Scarecrows wasn't on the 4 pages of titles in the sales link, but when I searched for it individually it shows as being in the offer.

You must have missed it, Rob. First page fifth title listed.

I was given a copy on VHS when I took out a subscription to 'The Dark Side' magazine back in the day

It had a low certificate ('15') and is is not a bloodbath - it owes more to 'The Stepford Wives' than it does to Fulci
