The Crazies is rubbish, not seen the other two. The Thing doesn't look all that special to me, I'll give the current blu another whirl see if it really does warrant an upgrade. Not interested in the other three either really. Certainly not at release prices anyway.

Will definitely pick up The Thing. But not too impressed with the packaging options. To be honest, would far prefer a regular amaray.

With 8000 copies to shift between the steeIbook and the other release, it'll be ages now until that happens.

I'll be having the digibook of the thing. Don't see the point in missing out on the extra stuff. JD's revenge is a must as I saw it some time back and enjoyed it. Miracle mile is a possibility. I'll see how it stacks up against the kino blu-ray I've had for ages. I love the crazies and like season of the witch so definite interest in the romero set.

[Nosferatu@Cult Labs]

I'm moderately interested in the Romero box set, but not for £60.

I would buy The Thing, but not with that packaging and not as I have the Shout! Factory release with two extra commentary tracks (Dean Cundy and co-producer Stuart Cohen) in addition to the original DTS-HD Master Audio 4.1 soundtrack. Although it has a 2K picture rather than a 4K one, I can't say I would notice a huge difference.

Perhaps one which interests me the most is JD's Revenge as I'm a big blaxploitation fan and really enjoyed Friday Foster.

They should stick to packaging that doesn't dent or scuff up if it is accidentally dropped and is generally easier to produce and replace.

Arrow's website has crashed, presumably with people trying to get The Thing.

Amazon is showing the LE as unavailable... I've stuck in an order for the Steelbook though at this point, let's see what happens.

the site seems to have crashed anyway
