Re: Mill Creek
Blu-ray.com lists Romero's Night of the Living Dead (1968) coming from Mill Creek.
Could this be a Let's-Cash-in-on-Romero's-Death Edition, which, due to the public domain status, is probably being released in spite of and in addition to the rumored forthcoming Criterion edition?

Re: Mill Creek
Its a terribly smart business decision from Mill Creek. About everyone knows of the still forthcoming Criterion edition now, but then it gets delayed, so they have the October / idiot market wrapped up nicely.
In case anyone wanted to know what kind of company Mill Creek was, here's their tribute to Romero when he died:

Oh good lord, you know you’ve hit the bottom of the barrel when you’re releasing Reb Brown movies.

With an exclusive Reb Brown commentary no less!
(I have never seen this movie but I am in the bag day 1 for all Italian postapocalyptic trash.)

Re: Mill Creek
I've not seen it but according to one of the commentators on one of the volumes of that 42nd Street Forever trailer compilation set this film apparently inspired the ultimate pithy negative review: "Up Yors!"
Is this the theatrical version, or the four part television mini-series version that has only been previously shown in Italy?

Re: Mill Creek
Seeing as Sony's UK DVD of Age of Consent now appears to be OOP, I wonder if it is forthcoming from Indicator? This seems to be the pattern, and other Mill Creek Sony releases have done the same (namely some of Sony's Hammer titles).

Eyes Of Laura Mars has a nice UK release from Indicator. Region-free, even, and with some good extras.

Re: Mill Creek
And if those are too high brow for you, don't worry, they're also releasing Jury Duty! And Opportunity Knocks, Excess Baggage, and Double Team-- finally, a Blu-ray lineup fitting of a Tuesday afternoon of HBO2 programming circa 1999

Re: Mill Creek
Worth noting that Opportunity Knocks is licensed from Universal. They had released The Rundown (2003) and Barb Wire in February from Universal licensing, but both had been on Blu-ray before, while Opportunity Knocks is new to Blu-ray. While unlikely, perhaps this deal with Universal will ultimately result in a worthwhile catalog title coming to BD for the first time.

Re: Mill Creek
Unfortunately any Universal title I can think of wanting on Blu is unlikely to fit the perimeters of Mill Creek’s usual post-70s output. Still, who knows anymore, so maybe

Sounds pretty impressive for a Mill Creek release. And the art is very nice.
