Ikarie XB-1 and Third Part of the Night are also worth a look.

Heads up - according to twitter, Dekalog is sold out of Arrow store and is not coming back; it recommends getting it from either Amazon or HMV.

Agreed regarding Valerie. It's a terrific release.

So if 101 have bought out Hollywood Classics and HC is now been run by former BFI staff how does that pan out for Arrow, 88 and rest?
101 Films have always been a 'never was' company to me in that they seem to release mostly newer shot on digital titles.

You must not have noticed they released some Vincent Price films - Master of the World, Dr Goldfoot etc a series of Lou Ferrigno Italian films, Exterminator 2, Dolls, Lord of Illusions. There's loads actually including classic war and westerns. The problem is they are usually extras free.

And they're quite open about the fact they have no plans to ever improve the extras on their releases.

but when they do have extras, like on exterminator 2 they get so excited they tell you about it once on front cover and twice on the back

I wonder if the Herschell Gordon Lewis Feast will be reduced in the upcoming Black Friday Sale?

WHEN THE CURTAIN GOES UP THE TERROR BEGINS

Horror titans George A. Romero and Stephen King deliver yet another fiendish selection of blood-curdling tales in Creepshow 2 – now newly remastered in 2K!

In “Old Chief Wood'nhead”, a group of young hoodlums face retribution from an unlikely source after looting a local hardware store. Meanwhile, “The Raft” sees a group of horny teens wishing they’d read the warning signs first before taking a dip in a remote lake. Finally, an uptight businesswoman finds herself with some unwanted company following a hit-and-run incident in “The Hitch-hiker”.

Whilst retaining the EC comic book flavour that made the original such a hit, Creepshow 2, this time directed by long-time Romero collaborator Michael Gornick, is a decidedly darker and grimmer affair than its predecessor and remains one of the greatest horror anthologies of all time.
