By that metric, Timecop is no different, as all previous Blu-ray and DVD (and HD DVD) releases had zero extras on them. Edit: Looks like the DVD had the theatrical trailer on it, though it's not listed on the artwork.
You know it's not financially feasible to produce new extras for most catalog reissues. Would you have been satisfied if they'd scrounged up the trailer and this EPK? Would it be nice to get some extras? Meh, I guess so, but I'm sure there are all kinds of reasons why some things work out and others don't. Maybe Kino had better contacts for the films mentioned. Maybe it was more affordable for Kino to get Hyams since he did more than one commentary for them. Maybe Shout figured there was no reason to bother making new ones since no extras had been included in previous editions. Maybe Shout just doesn't like the movie. I just don't think special features are the selling point they once were. There are certainly exceptions, but I have a feeling Timecop was not going to be the outlier. |
Re: The One and Only Shout! Studios (and Scream Factory!) Blu-ray Thread
Producing a new feature length documentary about Timecop would be absolutely pointless if Van Damme and or Hyams didn't participate.
We will probably never know if Shout even asked them if they were available or not. Boutique labels like Shout, KL, Vinegar Syndrome make these movies for collectors. And they aren't exactly cheap either. So my point was that IMO you gotta do something more than just give us the movie with an upgraded picture and sound. Like I said, they could have tried to get the rights to the original EPK, trailer or gotten those action movie pundits that I mentioned earlier to record a new commentary. Otherwise, if all you cared about is the movie, you might as well buy a $5 to $10 digital copy rather than spending $30+ for a barebones release. Especially a high cost 4K release? If it wasn't feasible to do anything, might as well just release a more affordable Blu-Ray then. |

Why didn't they interview her for this release?!"
Sometimes the 95-year-old titty actresses have the best stories! And if I’m being honest here, I rarely complain if all they do is port over old extras. At the very least, I hope that’s what they’ll do and I’m grateful when they do it because (broken record time) something is better than nothing, even if it would be nice to have new stuff for added upgrade value (such as Shout has done for virtually every new release except this one :lol: ). I probably complain more often when they don’t – as in this case – or when they leave interesting stuff behind for whatever reason and cherry pick from the rest. Then I just question the value of the upgrade.

In searching for a previous Blu-ray release, all I could find was a Warner single-disc double feature that paired it with BLOODSPORT, so you may be right that nobody (Universal, Warner, Shout) gives a shit about it despite its original success.

Granted, they’d absolutely make it better, obviously, but I’ve seen countless featurettes and full-length bonus docs (from Shout and others) that have been quite interesting without the director and/or main star(s) participating, at least for those of us with an interest in the more mundane and technical aspects of a production.) |
Re: The One and Only Shout! Studios (and Scream Factory!) Blu-ray Thread
Porting over all the old extras from prior disc releases only seems important if you assume that fans don't already own some of those previous releases and haven't already watched those features. Or if you expect every new release of a film to be a totally comprehensive package that should eliminate the need to hold onto previous copies. Neither seems like a realistic expectation to me.
We're now almost 30 years into the Personally, I don't see much value in porting over old legacy features on movies that have already been around the block a bunch of times. The only content I might care about are newly-produced interviews or documentaries, but even those are often redundant as the participants just retell the same old stories they've told a hundred times before, usually with less clarity in their memory as time has passed. |

This ShoutFactory.com exclusive offer contains the following items:
In 17th-century Moldavia, the evil Princess Asa is condemned to death for witchcraft and vampirism, along with her brother Prince Igor Javutich. Two hundred years later, two doctors discover her crypt and accidentally set her resurrection in motion! With the help of Javutich and others whom she enthralls with her cold, dead kiss, Asa sets her sights on her ultimate victim: Princess Katia, her own doppelganger descendant! In 1960, Mario Bava made his directorial feature debut with La maschera del demonio (The Mask Of Satan), a film that achieved worldwide commercial and critical success under its better-known title ... Black Sunday. THE GIRL WHO KNEW TOO MUCH (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.66:1) / Italian DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English Subtitles / 86 min.) / THE EVIL EYE (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.78:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles / 92 min.) Nora Davis (Letícia Román) jets away to Rome to vacation with Edith, an old family friend. Unfortunately, her trip is anything but relaxing. On the first night, Edith dies – and as Nora runs into the night for help, she becomes an eyewitness to a murder as she sees a woman stabbed to death on the Piazza di Spagna. Being a young woman with an insatiable appetite for murder mysteries, Nora can't get anyone to believe her story, but with the help of the attentive Dr. Marcello Bassi (John Saxon), she learns that a murder did occur on that very spot – 10 years earlier – when an unfortunate woman fell victim to the "Alphabet Murderer." Mario Bava's The Girl Who Knew Too Much (La ragazza che sapeva troppo, 1963) is more than a stylish homage to the thrillers of Alfred Hitchcock. It was the first movie to show the influence of a distinctly Italian breed of thriller known as the "giallo" – named after a series of mystery pulps with yellow ("giallo") jackets published in Italy and renowned for their lurid cover art and attention to violent detail. BLACK SABBATH - INTERNATIONAL VERSION (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / Italian DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English Subtitles / 92 min.) Boris Karloff is your host for Bava's 1963 classic triptych of terror which set new standards in graphic violence and spellbinding horror! Michèle Mercier stars in "The Telephone" as a woman haunted by menacing phone calls. In "The Wurdalak," Karloff stars with Mark Damon as the patriarch of a family of bloodthirsty ghouls. And in "The Drop Of Water," Jacqueline Pierreux is a nurse stalked by the vengeful spirit of a dead medium. KILL, BABY... KILL! (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles / 83 min.) Set in modern day Transylvania, this creeping terror of a film follows an evil curse that has befallen a village plagued by bizarre murders. A doctor, investigating a young woman's apparent suicide, discovers the locals believe that the ghost of a baron's daughter is responsible. The victims in the small village are found dead with gold coins planted in their hearts. Director Mario Bava's chiller stars Giacomo Rossi Stuart and Erika Blanc. This moody and stylish film, filled with disturbing sequences, is one of Bava's best. KNIVES OF THE AVENGER (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (2.35:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles / 84 min.) With her husband the King missing at sea and presumed dead, Queen Karin goes into hiding with her young son Moki to escape being forced into marriage with Hagen, a general of the King's army and now a bloodthirsty pretender to the throne. Wary of strangers, she turns a beggar away from her cottage, but upon hearing her cries for help, the stranger returns and saves her from being assaulted by two men – with two well-thrown knives! The blademaster Rurik (Cameron Mitchell) is allowed to stay, and he takes the boy under his wing, teaching him the arts of survival. In time, he recognizes Karin as the woman he seduced years ago on her wedding night in retaliation for Hagen's murder of his own wife and son. Realizing that Moki might be his own son, Rurik now has a family to defend – and another to avenge – as Hagen and his soldiers converge on their hiding place! FIVE DOLLS FOR AN AUGUST MOON (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles, Italian DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English Subtitles / 81 min.) George Stark, a wealthy industrialist and playboy, gathers a group of bourgeois friends at his isolated island beach house for the weekend. His guest of honor is Gerry Farrell, a brilliant chemist who has discovered a remarkable new formula. Farrell doesn't care to discuss business, but the businessmen in attendance are determined to talk money – in the millions. Each of them angers the others with secret bids and back-alley deals, spawning an atmosphere of distrust, further exacerbated by the sexual intrigue in the air between the men and their various wives and mistresses. Suspicions turn into alarm when the guests begin to turn up dead, one by one! ROY COLT & WINCHESTER JACK (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / Italian (With Occasional English) DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English Subtitles / 85 min.) Mario Bava tries something new with this zany satire of Sergio Leone's Dollars trilogy. Roy Colt (Brett Halsey) and Winchester Jack (Charles Southwood) are two roguish cowboys whose gang isn't very successful at earning a dishonest dollar. Fed up with starving, the two friends decide to go their separate ways, with Roy vowing to find an honest job. But he changes his mind after arriving in Carson City, where he is made sheriff and entrusted with the replica of a stolen treasure map leading to a fortune in buried gold! Who will reach the gold first? Will it be Roy? The Reverend (Teodoro Corrà), a Russian outlaw with a fistful of dynamite? Jack and his gang? The desperado (Mauro Bosco)? Or perhaps Manila (Marilù Tolo), the mercenary Native American seductress desired by the Old West's most wanted? The answer may surprise you as the maestro of Italian horror takes them all on a date with a skull and an open grave in an ancient Indian burial ground! FOUR TIMES THAT NIGHT (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / Italian DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English Subtitles / 83 min.) What happened last night in Tina's apartment? Did she and Gianni have a sexual encounter? And what was that other couple doing in the apartment with them? Tina (Daniela Giordano), Gianni (Brett Halsey), Tina's mother, and Tina's peeping tom concierge all have differing opinions in this sex farce from horror maestro Mario Bava! Don't pass on this spicy Italian variation on the multi-perspective storyline of Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon. A BAY OF BLOOD (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles / 84 min.) Countess Federica, the elderly owner of a coveted piece of bayside property, is slain by her husband, Filippo Donati — who is himself then killed by a mysterious third person at the murder scene! Who is the killer? Could it be the real estate developer Frank Ventura? Or Paolo Fosatti, an entomologist neighbor who wants to preserve the natural insect life thriving around the bay? The Countess' illegitimate son, in a bid to claim a name for himself? Or could it be Alberto, the weak-willed husband of Donati's ambitious daughter, Renata? Brace yourself, because no one's a suspect for very long in Mario Bava's black comedy of human greed — which boasts 13 characters and 13 of the most shocking murders ever filmed! BARON BLOOD (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.78:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles / 98 min.) American student Peter Kleist travels to Austria on summer holiday to learn more about his family roots. By reciting an incantation on a piece of ancient parchment, he succeeds in scaring up a genuine ancestor – Baron Otto von Kleist (Joseph Cotten), a 16th-century sadistic nobleman whose appetite for cruelty earned him the nickname "Baron." Before Peter can reverse the incantation, the parchment burns! How many innocents will die before Peter learns how to send the evil Baron back to the hell from whence he came? LISA AND THE DEVIL (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.78:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles / 95 min.) / THE HOUSE OF EXORCISM (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.78:1) / English DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English SDH Subtitles / 91 min.) While visiting Toledo, Spain, American tourist Lisa Reiner (Elke Sommer) experiences a feeling of déjà vu when she sees an ancient mural of the Devil carrying away the dead. Becoming hopelessly lost as night falls, Lisa begs a ride from a passing car, which breaks down outside a mansion where a young man (Alessio Orano) lives with his blind mother (Alida Valli) and a charming butler (Telly Savalas) who just happens to resemble the Devil from the mural! After a night of murder and horrific revelations, Lisa comes face-to-face with the secrets of her past identity and her connection to the bizarre rituals she has witnessed. Producer Alfredo Leone (who was credited with the pseudonym Mickey Lion) restructured the film and shot additional scenes after the commercial success of 1973's The Exorcist. Taking the original story of Lisa And The Devil in entirely new directions, The House Of Exorcism adds the horror of diabolical possession to an already potent mixture. Tourist Lisa Reiner (Elke Sommer) encounters the Devil himself (Telly Savalas) while vacationing in Toledo, Spain. Recognizing in her the soul of a damned spirit that escaped him, the Devil possesses Lisa, who is sent to a local hospital. Father Michael (Robert Alda), an American priest, accompanies her and tries to exorcise the evil and blasphemous spirit from her soul. KIDNAPPED (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / Italian DTS-HD Master Audio Mono With English Subtitles / 95 min.) After a botched payroll heist, a trio of vicious criminals take hostages in a desperate getaway that explodes with cruelty, degradation, and shocking violence. |
Re: The One and Only Shout! Studios (and Scream Factory!) Blu-ray Thread
^ The contents remind me a lot of the two DVD boxed sets Anchor Bay put out a hundred years ago around 2007.
I had both of those and eventually upgraded only the ‘keepers’ to Blu-Ray. Pretty much the same mix of movies, so I assume they’re some kind of package deal when it comes to licensing? Also interesting that it’s just Blu-ray and not a forced 4K upgrade to get the Blus, like some of their recent boxes. But holy shit with the commentaries - enough already! Critics, critics, and more critics - none of whom are known quantities but presumably write for websites and whatnot. One ‘expert’ on each would’ve been enough, although the most logical choice, Tim Lucas, appears to have had his commentaries from earlier editions (including the Anchor Bay boxes) dropped in favour of this big pile-on. The only one I’m curious about here is the track by Tracy Letts on FOUR TIMES, but that film is probably the dullest one in the collection. - - - - - - - - - - - Speaking of boxed sets, I noticed Shout’s Blaxploitation boxes on the shelves of a video store here today and while it’s too rich for my pocketbook (for now), I was glad to see that they wisely dropped that amateurish, borderline-AI ‘character’ artwork on the outer case in favour of just the reddish-purple backdrop (which is still kind of incongruous, but bearable). |

I'd love to get Miami Vice, but not for the prices that Shout normally charges for 4Ks.
And I have not picked up a single Shaw Brothers set since they 1st came out. Just way too expensive for them. |

I was skimming the used rack at the Vinegar Syndrome store on the weekend and noticed they had the Shout SLEEPAWAY CAMP II and III combo editions priced quite high, so presumably those are OOP (and the cheaper Sandpiper Blu-rays only port over the commentaries). I see they’re fetching top dollar on Amazon U.S. as well. I suppose if there’s one upside to all these 4K + Blu combo reissues, it’s that they probably wont decrease the value of earlier editions because not everyone wants or can use 4K and some might just want the DVDs in the older packs. I’m a wee bit disappointed at the overabundance of ‘experts’ on the CITY ON FIRE edition, and only one interview with a actual participant, screenwriter Tommy Sham (who also appears in the film). But hey, I know I should just be grateful that we have them at all and that they’re including some kind of supplements. Definitely something for down the road. |

Miami Vice on 4k is surprising as to my understanding it was filmed with early HD cameras and would just be an upscale transfer.

Frank Djeng said that most of the people who starred in these films no longer want to talk about them - especially Chow Yun Fat. Seems like they had no choice but to get "experts" to do supplements. We are blessed with any actor/director interview that were able to get.
At the end of the day, though, Arrow and Vinegar Syndrome (and 88, though more on their LE boxes) have tended to be more adept at this than Shout, and the cast/crew interviews those companies produce are probably arranged and conducted by the same experts working across most of these labels. The new IRON ANGELS set, which I picked up at the store last Friday, has four interviews with folks who worked on the films (including only one main actress) totalling just over 100 minutes, in addition to the usual scholar commentaries and video essay. Some labels also endeavour to dig into the Frederic Ambroisine archives for relevant interviews as he conducted a ton of them from the 90’s to today, many of which are quite rare. The Arrow Shawscope sets have a number of these, but his subjects weren’t limited to just that studio. I can’t speak for sure about CITY ON FIRE, but I wouldn’t be surprised if his archive has interviews with people who worked on the Golden Princess films discussing specific projects they did for that company, maybe even that one. Guess we’ll see as more of these get released. But despite what possibly could have been, I’m as grateful as anyone that we’re getting them at all, and with supplements of any kind. I have a feeling Arrow (or whichever UK label sub-licensed the GP films from Shout, wasn’t it?) might surprise us, though, by not relying solely (or mostly) on the usual experts. In terms of archival material, these interviews with CITY ON FIRE cinematographer Andrew Lau and star Roy Cheung were done for the old Hong Kong Legends DVD, so presumably access to these might be given to a UK boutique rather than Shout (note: subs weren’t included on these uploads): Spoiler:
Ringo Lam and Danny Lee also reunited at some kind of Hong Kong film festival in Shanghai in 2016 to discuss the film (and a couple of others). I’d love to see this picked up and subtitled, but alas it might be too difficult. Spoiler:
