I just ordered Blu-rays of Diary of the Dead and its sequel, Survival of the Dead, with the first film labeled under the Dimension Extreme imprint and the second film in an Ultimate Undead Edition.

My DVD of The Devil and Max Devlin arrived right on time!

My Blu-rays of Diary of the Dead and Survival of the Dead arrived today! Both of them arrived early, too.

I just bought yesterday a Blu-ray of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.

I just bought two DVDs: Fiend without a Face and Socket.

[mikelcho]

I bought one DVD from the Criterion Collection off of eBay that was stupidly OOP, White Dog, and one Blu-ray from Kino Lorber's new imprint Kino Cult, The Godsend.

Next week, I hope to buy two more DVDs from Criterion, Cat People (the first version) and El Norte.

Fiend without a Face just arrived today! Now all I need is White Dog, Cat People (the first version), El Norte, and The Blob (the first version) and I'll have all the Criterion-released films I want.

I should mention here that I've got a lot more of their releases than just these I'm getting.

[mikelcho]

White Dog just arrived today, and early (its arrival was originally announced as being next Monday)!

Also, I ordered the Criterion DVD of Cat People (the first version) today.

[mikelcho]

Cat People (the first version) just arrived today!

I've also bought the Criterion DVDs of The Blob (the first version), Eyes without a Face, Peeping Tom and Haxan / Witchcraft Through the Ages. After all four of these, I'm done Criterion DVD-wise. I'll have what I want from them as far as non-Godzilla films are concerned. The only thing I need now from them is the Blu-ray release of The Return of Godzilla.

Finally grabbed Godzilla vs Biollante 4K.

I forgot to add one more film from Criterion on DVD I also bought: Kiss Me Deadly.

[mikelcho]

Not did Kiss Me Deadly arrive earlier last week, but I've ordered one more film from Criterion on DVD that I forgot to add to the list: El Norte.

[mikelcho]

El Norte just arrived today! My DVD releases from The Criterion Collection are done at last!

[mikelcho]

I just ordered a brand new copy of the DVD release of Wings of Desire, another Criterion Collection film, This doesn't count toward my finished DVDs list, as I already have a DVD copy of this film, but I got it from my local library a long time ago and I can't remember if it had the liner notes in it or not, so I'm just going to err on the side of caution here just to be safe.

I just bought a Blu-ray set titled Twisters Double Feature, which has both Twister (1996) and Twisters (2024) in it on two separate discs instead of one double-sided disc like some companies do (I'm looking at you, MGM's Midnite Movies Double Feature releases).

These two films are very special to me because I saw both of them with my Mom, just the two of us, in two different movie theaters (both of which have long since closed down) before she recently started ailing.

UPDATE: My Mom died tonight and is with the Lord. This Blu-ray set is really special now. May she rest in peace.

[mikelcho]

I forgot to mention that Wings of Desire arrived on Friday, and it was great!

[Angilasman]

My unwatched pile is already insane (plus I've got various preorders) so I went pretty conservative for this Criterion sale: just Godzilla '54 in 4K and the I Walked With a Zombie/Seventh Victim double feature
