Unfortunately Mya owns the rights to Four Flies on Grey Velvet, so I doubt we'll be seeing that on Blu-ray any time soon.

I don't think MYA owns the rights to anything, they just release stuff whenever they want to

I had been under the impression that they were a quasi-bootleg operation until I noticed that they were distributed by Ryko. I guess that makes them legit?

There's nothing legit about Mya's FOUR FLIES disc. The bad audio was stolen from RetroFilm's German bootleg.

A 4 FLIES BD is supposedly coming from Koch Media in Germany. They posted on their facebook page.

That's strange that Ryko would distribute such a shady company - are they on the same level as Jef Films then? They do have a few nice covers though!

Well then who does own the rights to Four Flies then?

Paramount most likely owns the U.S. rights but Italy has the master. It's probably not a priority for them.

Since they've licensed so much to Olive (who's also started to embrace BD), I wonder if they'd be willing to fork it over to them. I bet Olive would be tenacious about getting a disc out there.

Amazon's pre-order price for Torso has dropped to $15.99.

Not to mention their price for Cat O' Nine Tails dropped to $14.99. Just realized this after getting the e-mail stating that I was getting $1 credited back.

blarg.

Boo.

When did BU's release of The Bird With The Crystal Plumage start going for insane prices? I know it's OOP...but wow.

Someone is crazy enough currently to be paying $123 for Sealed Copy on Ebay currently.

That's just madness. I wonder if Arrow's botched release is keeping the price up.

There's still a day left as well!

Makes sense. There must be a good amount of people who weren't happy with Arrow's treatment but never got on the BU release.

DiabolikDVD was selling copies really cheap ($21-25-ish) a couple weeks ago since they had found some.

I bought one just before it went out of print, but I still haven't watched it, or even seen the movie. I guess I should watch it soon so I can decide if I want to sell it.

Zombie is getting a 10/25 release, according to DVDAf.

It's a great film.

The prices sort have calmed down on the Blu-Ray. Probably was just one insane individual who had money to blow on the previous auction

I'm glad I grabbed a copy back when I first started buying Blus. I'd be pissed if the only way I could watch it was Arrow's cropped release...

I must say I was underwhelmed by Cat O' Nine Tails. The story wasn't particularly involving, the cinematography was far less striking than in other Argento films, and the Morricone score was, although functional, not a patch on the soundtracks for Bird, Deep Red, or Inferno, all of which stayed in my head long after the films they accompanied had ended. Overall, my least favorite Argento so far, other than Stendhal Syndrome.

^^
You're right, it's not on the same level as Crystal Plumage, Deep Red, Suspiria, etc. But I find it enjoyable in its own right, and would rather watch it over Argento's recent output.

Now with that said, let's hope the date you posted for Zombie is accurate...

I find CO9T better with each viewing. Its gone from being good to being one I love.

I find most of Argento's films to be much better on their repeated viewings. I can't even remember what my first thoughts were on a lot of his films. I can see why Cat would have less appeal than Bird and I also kinda understand people not liking Stendhal but Morricone's score (especially the opening) is a masterpiece.

Synapse is releasing The Exterminator, Maniac Cop and Frankenhooker. Release dates and extras TBA
