For me i'd be clamouring for X The Unknown, Quatermass II and The Abominable Snowman

Yeah - I have the recent UK Strawberry Blu Ray and ITV are one of the licensors on the back. To be honest, I couldn?t tell you who owns Hammer?s catalogue - it seems all over the place.
VAMPIRE CIRCUS hasn?t had a definitive release ( pq is still not what it could be, by all accounts ). More of a 4k wish list - along with many others, including the first two Quatermass films, DRACULA, CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF , PLAGUE OF THE ZOMBIES etc.

It is all over the place. Warners, Columbia, Itv, Hammer themselves, Icon, StudioCanal...

The new Hammer have to curb their enthusiasm a little and not flood the mailboxes with daily emails. I already semi-regret subscribing

Let's see the price point for Cronos LE when it becomes available for pre-order tomorrow 31st, as it'll set the tone for future releases. I just hope they release a standard edition, at some point, preferrably with the 1:85:1 version...

EDIT: The price is a very surprising €60. I was expecting 100+

Spirit Entertainment are re-releasing Hammer House of Horror in December priced 19.99.

I imagine it's a direct port of the Network release but no details yet.

Nice!

I got the Network release from CEX a while back. I'd love to see someone release Hammer's House of Mystery and Suspense on blu-ray. I know it's had a DVD release in Germany.

Me too. I rewatched And the Wall Came Tumbling Down in October. My UK box set was released by DD Entertainment. The same company who initially released the Quatermass films, X- The Unknown, The Abominable Snowman and the cut version of Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell among others so i've no idea who has the rights to release it on Blu. Hammer themselves perhaps?

My brother bought me both volumes of that one many years ago. I can't remember if I ever watched it, and now I don't know where they are.
