    42nd Street – Part 2

    by

    With the line “you’re going out a youngster but you’ve got to come back a star!” being remembered to this day, this film was the beginning of a series of movie musical extravaganzas that has never been equaled. This was the very first film from our highly successful UA deal that was edited and hit…

    Bloodlust

    by

    This English dubbed German horror was another that we picked up from Butchers Films. Its original title was ‘Mosquito der Schänder’, but was also known as ‘Bloodlust: The Black Forest Vampire’ and ‘Bloodlust: The Vampire of Nuremberg’. Loosely based on a true case, this film deals with a young man (Werner Pochath), who in his…

  • Black Emanuelle, White Emanuelle

    Black Emanuelle, White Emanuelle

    by

    This had been a scope title in our 16mm rental catalogue and had proved to be immensely popular, a factor that had swayed us to project it in several local working mens clubs, where it had received repeat requests. So it seemed only natural that we should approach Miracle Films and release it on video…

    Rico

    by

    Although we were sold this film under the title ‘Rico’ this action thriller has had a number of banners including, ‘Riko’, ‘Ricco’, ‘Gangland’, ‘The Dirty Mob’, ‘Heavy Dues’, ‘Cauldron of Death’, and there could be others! Any film that hides behind this many titles is generally trying to disguise something, and strangely enough this film…

  • Key Largo

    Key Largo

    by

    As far as I recall this title along with ‘New York, New York’ and ‘Trapeze’ were the only films from the UA deals that received a single 400′ release. Claire Trevor won an Oscar for Best Actress in a Supporting Role, but this picture belongs to Edward G. Robinson as Rocco and Humphrey Bogart. It…

    The Treasure Of Sierra Madre – Part 2

    by

    Another superb quality black and white title from the United Artist’s contract. This 1948 film earned itself three Academy Awards and starred Humphrey Bogart, Walter Huston and Tim Holt. I’m afraid that I don’t posses many of the UA/WB inlay labels as they were shipped over to the plastic clamshell packaging manufactures, so they could…

    The Devil Rides Out

    by

    One of my own personal favourite Hammer Horrors and a title that Derek edited using a new 35mm prints and a loaned portable 35mm projector. The in initial label was created for card boxes and featured Mocata menacing the female lead with satanic symbolism in the background. However when we produce the plastic clamshell packaging…

    Rollerball – Part 1

    by

    One of the UA titles from the first contract and one that Derek edited using a portable 35mm projector! It was this film and the now regular use of 35mm as master material that lead us to use Ken Locke & Keith Wilton to do much of our editing. Label was designed by our regular…

    Kingdom Of The Spiders
