There is a new folk horror boxed set coming out from Severin Films next week. It was supposed to have come out this week. I made it my pick. I wrote a nice little thing about it. Then at the last minute, they switched the release date to next week.
So, I had to switch my pick to the Seven Samurai. I love Seven Samurai, it is one of my favorite films. Criterion remains my favorite distribution company. But the thing is I already own a Criterion copy of that film. I’m not a big fan of double dipping. Sure, it would be nice to get the 4K upgrade. If someone wants to send me that for Christmas I would be eternally grateful. But I’m not likely to buy it on my own.
That’s why it wasn’t actually my pick. Until my real pick deserted me and I needed something quick.
Anyway, you can read that write-up and learn what else came out today over at Cinema Sentries.
