And yes,the CR dvd is the best release around.

You seem very sure about the repressing of The Visitor Bruno, which is very good news as far as I'm concerned. I will definitely buy a copy of that one direct from Bill as well The Last Chase and maybe some others as well. I wish Mean Johnny Barrows would be reissued as well, but I believe that one sold very poorly.

I like it,it's an early black and white Ted V. Mikels film.

Any chance of re-issuing THE DEAD ARE ALIVE and PRIMAL RAGE?

[bdc]

Some titles can't be repressed because the rights have expired,I think Primal Rage is one of those.
Not certain about The Dead are Alive...that one was available for a very long time.

Btw I don't know when the selected titles will be repressed,only Bill knows.

All the Fred Williamson releases apparently sold poorly.

Didn't Bill cancelled (or refused to re-press) because he was criticised over the release of The Dead are Alive? I believe a scene was missing or something...

[bdc]

I don't think Bill cancelled or refused to repress...
But sales were poor and he was criticised because a German dvd that had the Italian version (not so good quality btw and not English friendly) had a short "erotic scene" which the US print was missing.

"Derived from the US version, it is missing some footage (about 20 seconds) from a sex scene between the park guard and his girlfriend (A VIRGIN AMONG THE LIVING DEAD's Cristina Von Blank) that was probably snipped for an R-rating (I believe the same footage was clipped from the unauthorized Eurovista DVD release which used a 16mm scope 2.45:1 print with some dialogue-dropping splices as its source) but seems otherwise complete." (Eric Catonas)

Yes he did!

I pulled it out of circulation due to a reviews mention a hairy ass scene was missing. This scene is missing in all releases, but turned up on a vhs in swiss. I was flooded with complaint (most likely non-customers) so I OOPed it. It wasn't selling and way too many trolls claim the eurovista dvd was better release and called my transfer a tape master and a beat up print. Major restoration took place and I was spit on by critics. don't need or sell enough to take the abuse, so I stop the press.

So he actually stopped selling it because of criticism from non-customers. This is not good.

[bdc]

So he didn't repress it but I remember it was still available for a long time after the CR site listed it as oop.
So anybody who wanted it could still have easily picked it up.

[Pete]

Wasn't available for that long. I tried ordering it a few months after it came out and it 'unavailable' and the few copies I did find were ridiculously overpriced.

I guess for Bill/CR a few months is a long time since their stuff is usually only available for a day or so

I like some Code Red titles but Bill need to get more confident on his titles and not take criticism so damn hard.
