I have pre-ordered Heaven's Touch who was supposed to be release this month, but it seems cancel since it vanished last week from Diabolik. I sure ain't lucky with my purchases this year with The Lickerish Quartet delayed because of distributor move (it would have been my first real Blu-Ray purchase), The Image who was supposed to be release in april but will be delayed because of the others Synapse titles who are delayed and now the vanishing act of Heaven Touch...Jimmyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06450865772645527411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118739161669156459.post-64773190614132731242011-03-03T11:56:41.462-08:002011-03-03T11:56:41.462-08:00Astro -- thanks for the link!
"Anon" :)...Astro -- thanks for the link!<br /><br />"Anon" :) -- good work. I could tell y'all did it in one take -- I think it was a good approach. It's certainly unlike most other commentaries I've heard. As for the "sad story" I can't remember anything other than Shaun saying "it's kind of a sad story" and then getting distracted by something. :) I'll happily hear either of the sad stories though!<br /><br />Aussie -- yeah, it's great. Glad you like it too, as well as the other ones you mention. I've heard crazy stories about Australian censorship (not least of which is the small-breast ban...). That's nuts.<br /><br />jimmy -- I'll have to check out your recent posts! Sounds great. I hope you're covering one of my favourites, Midnight Desires. Oh, and I read that AV Maniacs thread way back when I very first watched Passions of Carol -- I was looking for information on this mysterious director, came across that thread, and sat there for a couple of hours reading every single post (all the way to thrilling conclusion!).<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by, one and all!Gore-Gore Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18399623399091101647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118739161669156459.post-41041855405687537702011-03-02T23:46:11.343-08:002011-03-02T23:46:11.343-08:00This one is in my to watch pile since I got it bac...This one is in my to watch pile since I got it back in december, so I'm glad to see the quality is there (but of course that doesn't surprise me since the platinum collection equals quality). I plan to watch it soon, since all this month is dedicated to Shaun Costello at my blog. <br /><br />After some lazy months I'm ready to be back and what is better to do so than a Shaun Costello month of movies?<br /><br />If you like his story try to read the thread he was in at the Avmaniacs forum some years ago. I'm a fan of him since this discussion.Jimmyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06450865772645527411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118739161669156459.post-60612122438362280902011-02-28T16:10:24.527-08:002011-02-28T16:10:24.527-08:00This is an amazing film.

I wish I could buy the special edition but importing porn films into Australia means risking having them confiscated by customs and can lead to the police coming around to check out your DVD collection. I had movies like "V : The Hot One", "Vista Valley, PTA" and Gary Graver's "Private Teacher" confiscated. The only film the police wanted to have a look at from my collection was "Snuff", but they brought that back fairly quickly, which is more than I can say for my computer which they kept for 6 weeks.Aussiescribblerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04835275666734452167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118739161669156459.post-85015210349318540782011-02-27T18:17:27.627-08:002011-02-27T18:17:27.627-08:00I'm glad you liked the restoration.

This is a favorite film of his and his input and enthusiasm were crucial to the success of this project.<br /><br />As for the scatterbrained nature of the commentary, that is indeed the result of there just being too many interesting stories to tell...far more than can be fit into 76 minutes. <br /><br />We did the commentary in one single take, without any breaks. Shaun is a very entertaining and eloquent speaker who is also a walking encyclopedia of NYC history. He never runs out of fascinating anecdotes.<br /><br />As for the "sad story," which one are you referring to? I'm pretty sure that two were mentioned. I'll fill in some blanks for you, as long as I can.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118739161669156459.post-28010010678035306372011-02-26T22:29:54.544-08:002011-02-26T22:29:54.544-08:00Completely unrelated, but still of interest... :)
