Slack-ass Universal has yet to release these wanted titles of mine to region 1:

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
Phantasm II
Phantasm III
Child's Play 3
The People Under the Stairs

(Yes, I know some of them are available in other regions.)

I e-mailed their customer relations and got the same old "We have no plans at this time to release those." At least they answered me.

I guess they're too busy designing the intricate packaging on E.T., framing BTTF nicely, and deciding on which editions of Path Adams, The Mummy and American Pie to churn out next.

Universal used to be my favorite studio for DVD's-now even Warner Brothers have surpassed them along w/Fox and Paramount.

You really have to wonder what goes on over at that studio - with all their screw-ups and lack of releases and much needed re-releases, no chat interviews - that studio has to be the worst.

I desperately need them to re-release all the Monsters Double Features:

Dracula's Daughter/Son of Dracula
The Ghost of Frankenstein/Son of Frankenstein
Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman/House of Frankenstein
The Mummy's Ghost/The Mummy's Curse
The Mummy's Hand/The Mummy's Tomb
Werewolf of London/She-Wolf of London

When??
