albert 18th Apr 2021		DVD Videodrome - Universal	The disc itself is probably the same one found in most of Region 2, with only the text on the cover slip changing. Sorry, I just noticed it states Region 2 & 5, which explains the additional subtitle options.
albert 18th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Videodrome - Arrow	There are so many extras on this disc that I gave up on writing the notes. It is the 'unrated' version running time 89 minutes (Blu-ray) it states.
albert 18th Apr 2021		DVD The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, The Complete Collection - Fabulous Films	Also available as separate sets: Season One: FHED3315, barcode 5030697031136 Season Two: FHED3316, barcode 5030697031143 Season Three: FHED3317, barcode 5030697031150
albert 18th Apr 2021		Cinema Auch Zwerge Haben Klein Angefangen (Even Dwarfs Started Small) (1970)	Problematic early film by Herr Herzog, and not just because of the exploitation but because it includes animal cruelty/killing, and the fact that some of the actors suffered injuries on set (like getting run over by a driverless car). And it is a pretty lousy film to boot. Not included in the BFI's Werner Herzog boxset.
albert 18th Apr 2021		Multi-Format Sacha Guitry Four Films - Arrow	Titles of the films are: Le Nouveau Testament [The New Testament], (1936) 100 mins Mon Père Avait Raison [My Father Was Right], (1936) 98 mins Faisons Un Rêve... [Let's Make A Dream], (1936) 80 mins Remontons Les Champs-Élysées [Let's Go Up The Champs-Élysées], (1938) 103 mins
albert 18th Apr 2021		Multi-Format Sacha Guitry Four Films - Arrow	They commissioned someone to come up with new artwork? Well it doesn't look like much of an effort was involved by using publicity stills with attached 'spot'... Badly thought out too, since the covers are printed both sides, (one for each film per Blu-ray case), hence you need to open the case to see the details of one of the films.
albert 17th Apr 2021		Multi-Format Lunch Hour - BFI	Includes a booklet and special features are bonus short films by James Hill: Skyhook, (1958) 17 mins Guiseppina, (1959) 32 mins The Home-made Car, (1963) 28 mins
albert 17th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Two Thousand Maniacs! - Arrow	Alternative artwork scrapes into an OK pass, though the artist shows trouble with facial expressions.
albert 17th Apr 2021		DVD The Roger Corman Collection - MGM	The pairings on the discs are: Bloody Mama / A Bucket Of Blood Premature Burial / X: The Man With The X-Ray Eyes Gas-s-s-s / The Trip The Young Racers / The Wild Angels. There was a UK set with the same title and very similar artwork, but it only contained 3 films!
albert 17th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Dragon Fist - 88 Films	Choice of 3 audio soundtracks: Mandarin, Cantonese, English. Optional English subtitles.
albert 17th Apr 2021		Multi-Format Room At The Top - BFI	There is a French language version of this film titled "Les chemins de la haute ville" where Simone Signoret speaks her lines in French. Apparently her voice was dubbed here, the French version of course dubs over the English voices.
albert 17th Apr 2021		Multi-Format Girl With Green Eyes - BFI	Includes a booklet, special features have 2 interviews and bonus short films: The Peaches, (1964) 16 mins Food For A Blluuusssshhhhh, (1959) 31 mins
albert 15th Apr 2021		Cinema The Family Way (1966)	Paul McCartney soundtrack.
albert 15th Apr 2021		DVD The Hitchcock Collection - Universal	Standard size DVD cases. A smaller 14-title box set with similar artwork was later released in 2005 with each DVD housed in a slim case. The individual titles were also sold separately.
albert 15th Apr 2021		DVD Box Set Alfred Hitchcock - Universal	Slimline DVD cases. A larger 17-title box set with similar artwork was previously released in 2003 with each DVD housed in a normal size case, (and the titles were also available individually).
albert 14th Apr 2021		Blu-ray To Catch A Thief - Paramount	The box does not indicate if there is a region code for the Blu-ray, however the UK is within Region B. I wish that the people who do the artwork would stop colouring peoples eyes to a highly artificial level. I am sick of seeing freakish-looking eyes, here Grace Kelly's are a stupidly vivid blue.
albert 14th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Innocent Blood - Warner Bros. Home Entertainment	The box does not indicate if there is a region code for the Blu-ray, however the UK is within Region B.
albert 14th Apr 2021		Multi-Format House Of Wax [1953] - Warner Bros. Home Entertainment	The box does not indicate if there are region code restrictions for the Blu-rays and DVD, however the UK is within Region B (Blu-ray), Region 2 (DVD).
albert 14th Apr 2021		Multi-Format Donnie Brasco - Sony Pictures Home Entertainment	The box does not indicate if there are region code restrictions for the Blu-ray and DVD, however the UK is within Region B (Blu-ray), Region 2 (DVD). The extended cut on the Blu-ray has 25 minutes of extra footage and this is the first time it has been available in the UK.
albert 14th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Box Set The Best Of COI: Five Decades Of Public Information Films - BFI	Special features are four 1 minute TV info-mercials: Searching (1974) Grain Drain (1975) Tornado Trailer (1985) AIDS: Iceberg (1987)

albert 13th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Child's Play - MGM	Region ABC Blu-ray. I would presume that the actual disc is the same one found in many countries and that only the cover slip changes.
albert 13th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Bram Stoker's Dracula - Sony Pictures Home Entertainment	Region ABC Blu-ray. Because Sony is a multinational corporation I would presume that the actual disc is the same one found in many countries and that only the cover slip changes.
albert 12th Apr 2021		Blu-ray Duck Soup - Arrow	I have the same mini-quandary with HMV's 'premium collection', eventually I settled on the big name studio. Arrow mainly package 'indies'.
albert 12th Apr 2021		Multi-Format Man Of Violence - BFI	Bonus film "The Big Switch" (1968), in two versions.
