I also vote that from now on this fullframe "Sinister" sourced/related print/transfer be referred to as THE AMOEBA PRINT henceforth, and remind anyone who gloms onto this DVD to please boil it for 4...

I've been enjoying my Something Weird Video VHS of this today and am I correct in thinking that I hear music in this that also was used for WAR BETWEEN THE PLANETS and some of the other Gamma One...

Just finished with this, it was a rental from Netflix, & i'm glad I didn't purchase it. Very grainy, bare bones disc, with a washed out looking/fuzzy picture. Oh, well what can 1 expect for the...

Call me insensitive if you must, but I have to say this DVD looks no worse to me than Synapse's much celebrated release of CASTLE OF BLOOD. The audio, however, gradually drifts further and further out...

I also just watched one of these for the first time ever and it is SO obviously VHS sourced, at least if not more screen noise than Mr. Danzig's DRACULA'S GREAT LOVE and no upgrade over any of the...

I think you may be responding to how Margheriti fashioned CASTLE OF BLOOD to resemble a classic Universal/Republic haunted house creaker. He used B&W film for a specific reason related to how the...

I think in DANSE MACABRA's case it is an print issue as opposed to a DVD quirk. The print used had also been exposed & run through projectors, but I also lobby that Margheriti deliberately did...

Yeah that music does get to you -- unless I am mistaken some of the same themes were used for the GAMMA ONE movies too, or rather themes that are very similar.I dug out an Incredibly Strange Film...

So which is the best dvd release so far of "The Long Hair Of Death"? The one put out by "Incredibly Strange Film Works"?They have the film listed as 'widescreen'. Is that correct?THANKS!

I'd say get the one by Sinister Cinema if you insist on DVD, or the Something Weird Video VHS. Both versions were transferred without color haze and look marvelous. I am pretty sure that the ISFW and...
