Yeah I’ve not bought a second sight in a while. But I’ll be in for this. Incredible British film
And I won't be buying any Second Sight releases until they start releasing anything of interest. Feel they're getting way too 'niche' and overlooking some much needed and way more deserving 4K releases.
Dead man's shoes is a great movie that deserves, and needs an upgrade, other than that, recent Second Sight releases seem a little 'meh'...
Give us Saint Maud, under the skin, Sightseers.. and please God, give us the Red Riding trilogy in 4K!!!

Thoroughbreds. I want someone to release thoroughbreds. It’s right up second sights street. And Poor Things. And Kinds of Kindness.

But yeah I’ve not been interested in much for I’d say a good year now. Can’t even remember what the last one I bought. Maybe late night with the devil or nice guys which ever was last. Still need to pick up Chopper and Reanimator at some point tho and I would’ve gone for Pearl and Maxxxine if they released X but I can’t support that. I wish PA would hurry up with Florida project too because if that’s priced the same as Aftersun then I’m going to have to go for the second sight. Don’t fancy double dipping so I need to see PA first

Late night with the devil's a decent release, along with Chopper, which I no longer own..

Pearl/Maxxxine was a pointless pair of releases, although I'm sure they were snapped up by collectors not too concerned with complete franchise releases... The ugly stepsister looks like a decent release but not prepared to indulge in a blind buy...

How about The blackcoats daughter? And, one of the scariest movies in history, The innocents (1961)?
Why has nobody released a 4K release of The innocents? I first saw this movie when I was 8 or 9 and it scarred me forever! A beautiful movie so deserving of a caring restoration that would be handled with the care and attention that Second Sight could give it...

The Blackcoat’s Daughter is a must. Still one of my all time favourites.

I think a label like Criterion, Indicator or Radiance might be a better fit for The Innocents
Second Sight don't really put out films of that era, whereas the others do.
Admittedly, I've a soft spot for The Innocents too. I remember watching it with my Dad in the 80s and being petrified. Not sure I'll have the same response anymore but it is a fabulous film.
We need Night of the Demon 1957 (Jacques Tourneur) in 4k as well. I think Indicator did the Blu Ray special edition a while back.

Bit pricier than I was hoping for without a 4K restoration, but the artwork is great and Second Sight always knock it out of the park, they've put so much effort into this release, so I'm happy regardless.

I think Zavvi has made a mistake on the price. The Name of the Rose is more consist across the retailers, DMS isn't. Weird.

Yeah £40 sounds better considering it’s not 4K and it’s a big ole set. Not bought a second sight in ages but I’m all over this
