Might have to pick that 1952 Fisher / Dors title up. The DVD cover borrows a picture of her from a few years earlier ( 1948 ).

VCI released MAN BAIT and TERROR STREET once before in the HAMMER FILM NOIR - DOUBLE FEATURE collections in 2006. MAIN BAIT was paired with BAD BLONDE (1953) starring Barbara Payton on volume 1 and TERROR STREET was paired with WINGS OF DANGER (1953) directed by Terence Fisher on Volume 4. The new cover art doesn't mention they're Hammer Films.

Apparently German company Anolis are releasing Curse of the Werewolf and The Mummy's Shroud, which follows the March release of Twins of Evil. I can only presume this will involve the usual mediabook bluray/dvd combo's and standard edition blu-ray.

I could probably be talked into buying Curse Of The Werewolf on Blu-ray pretty easily...

Don't forget Final cut in Uk have COTW scheduled at some point. They have to make a decision about which hd version they put out. The older master with the more unanimously accepted ratio or the new master that Universal offered which controversially is not.

I do hope we get the proper A/R, but either way, one of my favourite Hammers. Ollie Reed's w/wolf gets my vote for all-time-best. Can't wait to see him in HD.

I like this Hammer film very much. Personally, I think the transfer is two clicks too bright.

Just to fuel the rumours, its been said that its coming in a boxset, possibly with FCW and Captain Kronos.

It seems the date comes from a listing on amazon UK that isn't ready for order yet (and is listed as dvd). I'd be ok with that set, btw!

[bgart13 Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close bgart13]

Oh - where did you hear it might be a set, Lala?

Interesting screen cap comparison between the DVD and Blu-ray releases of Brides Of Dracula...
