Pretty cool, but who the hell has Monsters HD? But, perhaps this means Dark Sky will release it in a while -- but hopefully done correctly. Tim also mentions a new Italian dvd of BLACK SABBATH that came out recently. Check out his blog for more info. Ben PS -- Thanks, Tim!

Unfortunately, broadcast rights and home video rights are usually, and certainly in this case, separately handled. Don't hold your breath.

That's all. And, as far as we know these days, MGM does not actually have the rights to either BLACK SUNDAY or BLACK SABBATH anymore. Just a lil' wishful thinking.

I remember reading that the cancelled AB release of the AIP version was supposed to be fullscreen but the copy I have is missing significant peripheral information compared to the Italian version.

I'm going on dim memory here, but I think Bava generally shot with mattes when he worked in 1.85. I wanna say Tim put this forward at one point, but it could also be me making things up. With my brain.

I think this was also mentioned in reference to DIABOLIK.
