Picked up all of these new on DVD for just over 10 Uk pounds which I think was great value for money!

Johnny goes arthouse.. although there is only a very thin line between arthouse and exploitation !
Anyway.. this set includes blu-ray editions of Theorem (1968), Medea (1969, Il Decamerone (1971), The Canterbury Tales (1972), Arabian Nights (1974), and Salo (1975), plus a seventh disc with additional bonus features.
The UK edition of the Decline Of Western Civilization box set (from Second Sight Films), which is identical to the region A, Shout Factory set (which means it also comes with a bonus disc as well as the 40 page booklet).
For those interested.. The UK blu-ray box-set currently sells for a very good price !
Also : Body Double (blu-ray + dvd combopack), The Neon Demon, Everybody Wants Some, and The Killing Of America.
The Killing Of America is in fact a UK release. Apparently, Severin Films released the exact same disc in the UK as well.. but as the recent devaluation of the British pound serves me well, i could get this much cheaper than the one from the US.

Cool stuff guys! I think that it´s about time to revisit Crossroads again.
I´ve never seen any Pasolini films but i have a strong feeling that i should
Here´s what i just got: Night Visitor (1989), The Buddy Holly Story (1978) and The Day of the Triffids miniseries (1981) which scared the crap out of me as a kid

Not that familiar with this one Pittsburghgirl but it's got a interesting cast with Helen Slater,Kelly LeBrock and Billy Zane.
Night Visitor is good fun Atomik if you're yet to check it out and the Buddy Holly Story is awesome with a great performance from Busey.

Atomik might be interested in it, as it is supposedto be an erotic thriller.

For some reason, I have never caught up with What Have They Done to Your Daughters, which I understand is more poliziotteschi than giallo. I am a huge fan of director Dallamano's What Have You Done to Solange so I need to check it out.

Is it just me, or does that kid look a lot like a very young Donald Trump ?

Solarwarriors is great 80s fun ! I have the region A Kino Lorber disc, but i assume it's exactly the same.
Almost forgot to mention this one :
Everything is still sealed though.. so i have lots of work to do this weekend.
This was probably my last package of the year, but overall 2016 has been great, with lots of cool releases !

Some great pick ups Atomik and it reminds me I still need to check out Terminator Genisys.
I did watch 9 To 5 just the other month (DVD rental) for the first time since the 80s and i think it holds up really well and was certainly good for a laugh!
I picked up Hired To Kill on Blu Ray and Streetwalkin on DVD.
