Yes! My two favourite Lewton movies; can't wait to revisit them with immaculate transfers and plentiful extras, etc.

'Demon Pond' sounds pretty interesting too; not familiar with that one.

Haven't seen Demon Pond but Shinoda is a master so I'm pretty sure it will rock.

I Walked with a Zombie / The Seventh Victim coming to the UK on 14th October.

Happy as a pig in shit, that will complete my Lewton horror HD collection (and start my UHD one). Just a shame that Warners couldn't get their shit together and do or licence a complete boxset.

Well, that replacement copy of the Tod Browning Criterion Collection set, with Freaks, The Unknown, and The Mystic, doesn't work either. I don't know what it is but my Blu-Ray player simply doesn't like this set. And it's played Blu-Rays that have been released since then, so it's clearly not an update issue, nor is it a region lock issue (my player is region-free, besides).

Nice to get a US release of Performance with the original UK audio.

And the King Lear release was rumored 7 years ago.

I hope that Criterion put 'Starring Quentin Tarantino' on the back of King Lear! I knew there was something I still liked about him, he doesn't lack balls.
