Quint has NIGHT OF THE CREEPS DVD info... and what's this about a sequel?!?

Would that be called a "Blu-Job"? by tonagan	Jun 14th, 2009 05:43:15 AM

Blu or not Blu...? by Natural_Selection	Jun 14th, 2009 05:45:00 AM
All I know is that it can't beat watching it for the 100th time on USA's Up All Night with Rhonda Shear (or was it Gilbert Gottfried...can't believe I would ever confuse the two). I love this movie!!!

It seems like Rhonda Shear hosted Fridays and Gilbert Gottfried Saturdays . Could be wrong though

...but it sure smells good!
Blue Ray = Beta Max?!?!? by BlueHawaiiSurfer	Jun 14th, 2009 09:02:03 AM
I think you have that confused with HD/DVD, lol. As far as BLU goes, for NEW movies...NOTHING looks better. Pick and choose with the old, but chances are you already own your favorite old movie anyway. So don't be a twit. Go to highdefdigest.com, read the reviews, and make an informed decision. This disc will be amazing!!
This is my most aniticipated DVD/Blu release of '09 by SoylentMean	Jun 14th, 2009 09:15:08 AM
of a movie not released in '09. The DVD/Blu of Up is my most anticipated release of a movie that hit theaters this year. And I've never even seen Night of the Creeps!
Anybody have the real numbers for Blu-ray? by SoylentMean	Jun 14th, 2009 09:17:39 AM
The format still seems kinda elite. I watch way too many movies not to upgrade to the format but I really don't see the average Joe forking over the money to re-buy movies they already have on a tried and true (and fucking cheaper all the time) format. The eventual switch to Blu-ray almost seems as shady as the government forcing television to be broadcast in digital.
Rather have Monster Squad 2 by shutupfanboy	Jun 14th, 2009 09:33:04 AM
Of course, the rumor about the remake is a bit interesting. I hope they pull of Buffy reboot on Decker since he really turned a crap movie into one of the best movies of the 80s. Bluray = laserdisc. Why pay more for the same dvd just because its brighter. Bad time to have a product like this out when the economy is in the shitter. This and PS3 are going to be the jokes of the entertainment industry in the next few years. Of course, I could be wrong, because people are sheep and force me to have to buy one.
Blu-Ray or No-way by JMS Revolutions!	Jun 14th, 2009 09:39:11 AM
Everything else looks blurry now.
Blu-ray Fucking Pwns by Autodidact	Jun 14th, 2009 10:10:31 AM
Anybody who says it's a scam is trying to justify their cheapness/ignorance. There are not a whole lot of really bad transfers out there, and the worst blu-ray still tends to look better than a DVD of the same title. Don't get me wrong I read reviews and don't buy some of the shittier encodes, but for something like say Robocop, which doesn't get the best picture quality reccomendations, it is worlds above the VHS tape/PAy TV broadcast quality I originally saw thatmovie in. Was like seeing it for the first time to hear ED-209 coming through my subwoofer.
Blu-Ray/ Hells Yes! by winman43	Jun 14th, 2009 10:41:17 AM
Folks, keep in mind that this so called 'average Joe's is not expected to 're-buy' their existing movies on BluRay. They will just purchase new movies going forward in the newer format, if they choose that option. When dvd first started, almost every review had mention of the vhs to dvd transfer. You hardly ever get that anymore, but you get it from most Bluray reviews, so keep in that you should have a look at the film first if you are worried about a quality transfer. Average Joe is not really gonna be that discriminating in their purchases, epecially now that stores like Walmart are selling Bluray 2 packs for $20.00 a pop.
yes, bluray by cifra	Jun 14th, 2009 10:55:18 AM
this movie has a special place in my heart.
blu... by liquorishspliz	Jun 14th, 2009 11:01:57 AM
a blu-ray version of this movie would be amazing. i was at the drafthouse screening and the print they got there was absolutely beautiful. speaking of beautiful, jill witlow autographed my friend's poster with, "would a fuck be out of the question?" he was quite proud.
I'll buy it either way by ddschneider1972	Jun 14th, 2009 11:24:41 AM
I'd prefer Blu-ray. There are very few movies I'd consider buying again when it's on blu-ray. When I got the Blu-ray I just started buying Blu-ray exclusively. The upscaled DVD is fine for most of the old collection...
Blu Ray ??? by Poodinger	Jun 14th, 2009 11:35:25 AM
I though Blu Ray had 5 more years AT BEST before something better comes along. I'm not wasting my $$$ on BLU!!!

october is too far away
There Will Be Blue... by Henry Fool	Jun 14th, 2009 06:46:49 PM
Anyone who doesn't like the BD medium should really check out, "There Will Be Blood". Watching that movie in 1080p through an HDMI connection on a 61" screen was one of the most amazing visual experiences I've ever had. Spiderman 2 is another film that looked incredible (all the Spidey films look great, it's just that S2 is really the only entry in the series that was everything I wanted it to be). That said, I'd just die to have Night of the Creeps in Blue. It's is my favorite 80's horror movie, just a slice ahead of the magnificent Evil Dead movies.
I've pre ordered my copy at Amazon by Lornsorrow	Jun 14th, 2009 11:27:14 PM
A thing showed up there a month or so back at Amazon that let you pre-order Night of the Creeps on dvd, though they had no release date for it at the time. Though I had already managed to get a good, HD transfer of the film from the underground market, I'll be looking forward to the official release on dvd with all these extra's! Once again showing that us fans of the film are going to want the real thing. The bootlegs only wet our appetite. Recommend people pre-order their copies. As for Blue Ray, I'm not really not that interested. In my opinion, Blue Ray is just not worth it. All the extra high price for something that can only be improved so far. With well over 2,000 movies in my dvd collection, along with tv series and whatnot, I'm not interested in starting my collection over with another format that really, honestly, just does not offer all that much more improvement when it comes to at least modern films. I have a beautiful flat screen tv, and a great player, pristine imagery, sound system, etc. I don't think films need to be super perfect. And, with some older films, the grain is part of the atmosphere. Either way, I think the whole Blue ray is great for people who really want and can afford to push it to the limits, but for the average person, there really is not that much gain, and a lot of money lost in the pursuit on some minor improvements (particularly with newer films). So, that's my opinion.
Monster Squad versus The Creeps by Forsakyn	Jun 15th, 2009 01:31:03 AM
That's actually a cool idea. Both can definitely live in the same universe. I doubt that will happen, but to whomever suggested it - cool idea.
About time! by CuervoJones	Jun 15th, 2009 02:27:23 AM
I have an obsession with this movie.
WHEN DOES THE DVD FOR OVERSEXED RUGSUCKERS FROM MARS COME OUT? by Jesiah	Jun 15th, 2009 02:35:27 AM
as in definitive edition, not some barebones crap.
I've never seen this movie, but I've heard of it of course by The Amazing G	Jun 15th, 2009 03:54:20 AM
I can't wait to finally see it!
I'm curious to see what they do with the cover art. by HerbWestAustin	Jun 15th, 2009 09:39:15 AM

of course Blu-ray! by macgruder	Jun 15th, 2009 10:02:08 AM
Man I am so jealous I didnt go to this. I met Jason Lively a few months back and we talked about the DVD release and how much I loved the film. Would have been great to see therm all answering Q&A.
Still debating BluRay? Really? by skimn	Jun 15th, 2009 12:47:15 PM
I don't know how you can own a flat screen, LCD or plasma, and not see the difference between standard DVD's and Blu. I watched The International over the weekend, and although the movie itself came up a little short, Tom Tykwer's use of widescreen and location work just POPPED off the screen. Beautiful work. And the Guggenheim sequence should be shown to the Bond producers if they're unsure who to direct the next Bond.
Will they digitally remove the fish lines from the Creeps/grass by Monkey_King	Jun 15th, 2009 07:03:51 PM
That always bugged me, but was so cool when those buggers slid through the grass like slippery eels travelling in various directions.
