I'll follow your technique next time I watch it. I wonder if the monkey was inspired by either "Murders in the Rue Morgue" or The Unholy Three, though I doubt Argento would be familiar with the latter.

Not bad for one of my favorite movies, but a bit more than I like to pay for a blind buy.

I asked Arrow if they had any upcoming Blu-rays plans for Martin, Deadly Blessing, Street Trash or any of the Russ Meyer films, and they said no.

Bummer. I hope Synapse will see fit to give Street Trash an upgrade, though. It's certainly one of their most worthy titles. I'd kill for that and Brain Damage on BD.

Blu-ray.com review of Rififi

NoirFan

Funhouse has a whopping £27.99 price tag - anyone know why? It's only one disc as far as I can tell. I just noticed that Amazon UK no longer includes list price or % off - the sale price is the only information available. Most annoying.

asianxcore

Could just a random placeholder price?

The DVD on the site is @ 20.99

NoirFan

20.99 is the sale price, £27.99 is list. As I noted, Amazon UK now only lists the sale price, without specifically identifying it as such, so unless one does further research, one won't know how much is being saved, if anything. That listing is actually for the Blu-ray - the item is identified as DVD, but the product description is for the Blu-ray. Also, I don't think Arrow has any plans for a DVD reissue anyway. Perhaps this is a dual-format release, like the Arrow Academy titles, which might possibly explain the high price, though the press release makes no mention of it being dual-format.

For some reason I can't find Funhouse on Amazon.uk. Can someone provide a link?

It says DVD, but as noted above, the product description and price correspond to the Blu-ray.

dino88

Thanks! That's what I was doing wrong. I was searching for blu-ray and the only thing coming up was some Pink concert.

NoirFan

Now that's a horror movie!

So bad it's just plain... bad...

Need to get more Arrow BDs in my collection...

NoirFan

The Funhouse has dropped three more pounds, to £17.99. If it ends up being £14.99 by the time it ships, I won't have any complaints. They've also corrected the format.

DVD Beaver Plumage comparison

Some of those grabs look awful with the tinting or whatever they did to them. The features look nice though.

So, once again, Arrow puts all their efforts into everything but the video.

SilverDreams

Can anyone confirm that the Arrow DEEP RED BR is compatible, extras included, with US BR players? I want it just for the extras, it's a bummer the Blue Underground BR has nothing on it that wasn't on the old AB DVD

THE FUNHOUSE even has me tempted. I watched this again recently on netflix and liked it a lot more than I did when I was younger.

Doctorossi

Why do these distributors keep letting Vittorio Storaro butcher his own films? My last shred of respect for one of my favorite cinematographers is slipping away, and he's taking my respect for some of these releasing companies with it.

asianxcore

Sort of looks like the color got sucked out of it.

SethDLH

Good way of putting it. If I can get a good deal on it for the extras I'll bite but it'll have to be a really good deal. This doesn't give me much hope for Tenebre.

Josh Z

That screenshot of the scene with the camera viewfinder frame marks that are completely missing on one side of the screen is perhaps the most damning proof of Storaro's lies yet.

Finally got my hands on Rififi, this is a great package really.

Quality transfer, good extras and superb presentation. More of this quality please, especially for The Conformist.
