That's a shame. I may have to pick up one of the US theatrical cut releases instead. |

I would love to see MICROWAVE MASSACRE and ALIEN TERROR get a Shameless release, these are certainly two titles that have long been overdue for a dvd incarnation... how about it |

Do SHAMELESS have a list of possible releases that we might see as some of the next titles on the label?

Films I would love to see released by Shameless Quote:
I know of so many films that I wish would be released in the UK but no. The brillliant French supernatural horror VIDOCQ and the excellent Spanish slasher TUNO NEGRO to name just two. I have the French dvd of the former and the US dvd of the latter. But I read that Tartan were supposed to release TUNO NEGRO but declined to do so, a few years ago I think. These films are not arty farty but have an audience for horror fans in the UK. Alas no to the distributors. Whoever the distributors are, sometimes or most times, they will release films onto dvd which THEY think are good for them, forgetting about the horror fans. These films have a cult following and you only have to search the net for the proof of that. The distributors DO have the money to release these films, I disagree otherwise. |

For a distributor to issue a film on DVD the asking price has to be an amount that will be recoupable on sales of the DVD release. Sadly, In many cases the asking price is way too high, and the amount of copies sold low so it would be a loss making exercise.

I know that you Marc have enquired about many titles that we would love to see released but the sums just didn't add up unfortunately. In some ways it is a shame that a greater percentage of the general population don't have an interest in cult, sleaze and cinefantastique, because then labels could justify higher licensing costs.

And then you have the fact that even if you could set a decent price the retailers simply won't accept it and expect a small company putting niche films out to match the terms of a big studio.

Vicious circle.... But,hey! I watched RINGS OF FEAR last night and the transfer was a bit shoddy to say the least! Good film though.Not a patch on Daughters or Solange,but good old Testi was on the ball as usual. Rings and Solange would make cracking Shameless releases!
