Pre-Halloween Blu-Ray titles guaranteed to make your wallet scream


Starting in August through Halloween, there are several anticipated Blu-Rays (and a few DVDs) that are hoping to make your pocketbook a little lighter. Since there are so many, I thought it was worth compiling a list to help you prepare, whether it be finding the best deal, telling your landlord you'll be a little short these months, or looking for a second job. This is obviously not everything being released, and I'm sure more will squeak their way in, but I'm really looking forward to these, and hope you are too.

Also, Scorpion Releasing, which has brought many classic cult, horror, and sci-fi titles to DVD, is finally getting into Blu-Ray, with Day of the Animals and Death Ship to start it off, although no date has been set.


And, over the next few months, Kino/Redemption continue to roll out their libraries on Blu-Ray with Black Magic Rites, Two Orphan Vampires, and Living Dead Girl, to name a few.

Feel free to let me know what titles you anticipate the most, and if there's one I've missed that needs to be shared, leave a comment or contact me. I will try to update this as I find out more.
