Just stumbled onto the news that Happinet are releasing the classic 1979 slasher Tourist Trap on Blu-ray in Japan on the 3rd of September.
This has always been one I've wanted from the get go and I don't have any Japanese discs in collection at all. I may get this for the novelty.
'And so, today, I have another surprise (although many of you kind of figured this was coming based on yesterday's reveal of CURTAINS). The negative is reportedly in poor condition, but we're diving in today after our lab has perfomed many hours of fixing splices and repairs... A TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE-like restoration may be in order to make this work, but Synapse is up to the task.'
Amazon.com have put up a preorder on a very exciting six disc box set. Chucky: The Complete Collection. Collecting all the films from the Child's Play series for the first time on blu ray. Including the new Direct to Video movie Curse of Chucky.
Great news. Saves me importing the Austrian steelbooks of part 2 & 3 which certainly aren't cheap. Really looking forward to watching 2 and 3 again. It's been a long time. Really interested to see Curse of Chucky as well. Will be interesting to see what sort of tone it has. Wether it's more a straight up slasher or the dark comedy with a sprinkle of slasher that they progressvely turned into.
