It's OOP. I got one of the only copies left on Amazon for $108 after tax & shipping, and the next one is currently selling for $160 before tax & shipping. Easy to see why no one's coughing up the dough for that one.Kaiju-King42 wrote:The original Dawn of the Dead.

Wouldn't those be with Universal today? Universal is notorious for ignoring catalog titles, especially as obscure as those.kingkevzilla88 wrote:Here's a bunch of golden age horror films from Paramount, that aren't DVD or Blu-ray.

Re: Movies M.I.A on blu-ray
It could be that Universal dose own them or that they've fallen into the public domain as I can't find a VHS release of them. So I think that it's been roughly 80 years since some of these films were released and with no home media releases, the copyright could have fallen.Terasawa wrote:Wouldn't those be with Universal today?

Re: Movies M.I.A on blu-ray
Not sure if you're up-to-speed, but all Miramax titles are now, I shouldn't say M.I.A., but OOP as a result of the Viacom/CBS merger. It's too bad because I've been meaning to pick up The Crow and Scream on Blu-Ray. Here's hoping Paramount rereleases them.
Oh and The Abyss was reported to be getting a Blu-Ray/4K release as far back as a year ago and nothing has come of it yet.

Re: Movies M.I.A on blu-ray
I know this is an MIA Blu Ray thread....but in lieu of knowing about another more appropriate thread....
We are apparently going to get Psycho an other Hitchcock films on 4K later this year, and just as Arrow got Pitch Black for 4K....they are apparently going to put Inglourious Basterds on 4K as well.
Say what you will about Universal sort of showing ONLY their Triple A titles the best home market treatment....but I like how willing they are to license their films out to Home Media companies who are able and willing to give them royal treatment.
Scream Factory got Dawn of the Dead and Drag Me to Hell. Arrow gets Pitch Black, Sixteen Candles, and evidently Inglourious Basterds and Chronicles of Riddick. Criterion got Breakfast Club.
So here's hoping any lingering Universal titles can get sub-licensed for Blu Ray or 4K releases in the near future.

And Spook Warfare was a bonus feature on a French (?) Blu-ray release of Miike's reboot, so it's technically not MIA on Blu-ray.

I meant an English language release. The old DVD releases are all out of print and go for stupid money.

James Cameron gets final approval on the transfer and he keeps putting it off. The Disney buyout of Fox probably doesn't help matters any. Same goes for True Lies.KManX89 wrote: Oh and The Abyss was reported to be getting a Blu-Ray/4K release as far back as a year ago and nothing has come of it yet.

Re: Movies M.I.A on blu-ray
Regardless, a number of those films *are* available on Blu-ray, and there are other ways to obtain all of them. They don’t really belong in this discussion.

Re: Movies M.I.A on blu-ray
Paramount is finally releasing Roman Holiday, the '50s romance flick starring Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck, on Blu-ray - one of the most conspicuously absent from the format classic Hollywood films.
Godzilla fans should be interested in it because it was a huge hit in Japan and an enormous favorite of Ishiro Honda, who adored Hepburn and based the princess traveling incognito element of Ghidorah TTHM on this movie.

Re: Movies M.I.A on blu-ray
Happy that the uncut original theatrical version of Psycho is FINALLY dropping on Blu Ray come September. The difference between the theatrical and 'uncut' version literally amounts to just a few seconds of spicy material(A character beginning to remove a bra, extra close ups of blood on hands, a few extra stab-motions with the actual stabbing still off-screen).....material that was deemed a bit too much back then after initial screenings....but is still incredibly tame by modern standards.
Either way, it is Hitchcock's original vision, with the extra 'edge' that he originally pictured. That's the version I want.
