Collection Update - March 27th, 2017

Hello Boils and Ghouls it´s time for another weekly Horror Update.

I found a couple of goodies this week or the week that passed I should say, I made some space for additional horror movies but that´s filling up fast.
Thankfully I got a call from work, I was asked to work extra for 1 month straight, everyday...ugh

It´s gonna suck working double almost everyday but the change in paycheck will be substantial and I will try to keep that in mind when work gets too boring.
I really need to switch out two of my large shelves (for even larger ones) and I need to get a tattoo appointment booked so money is definitely needed :P

Not to mention all the horror movies I have on pre-order.
But enough rambling and on to this weeks Horror Update:

• Lovely Molly
• The Tomb
• June 
• The Sand

This were all picked up at Kvarnvideo, the video store in town that´s sadly closing on the 31st of this month. If you live in Sweden like I do there will be a link to their website at the end of this post.

• The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Danish Release)
• Hellraiser: Inferno
• Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1932 and 1941 Version)
• Without Warning
• The Legend of Hell House

Just like the previous ones these were picked up at Kvarnvideo.

• Burying the Ex
• Supernatural Paranormal
• Suck

Burying the Ex came from Ginza and the other two came from... you guessed it Kvarnvideo.

I´m still waiting for one part of the order from Ginza, and I´m starting to doubt if I´ll ever see that movie, when I ordered it they said it´s on the way to their warehouse/Storage facility whatever you wish to call it.

Anyway that was a a couple of weeks ago now, I don´t mind waiting for something I know is coming, but there is absolutely no information about my order whatsoever.

I totally get that keeping every title in stock might be hard but come on, you don´t leave someone hanging for weeks and weeks without at least update them on the situation.

Last but not least:

• Deodato´s Cinema of Death
• Cannibal Holocaust
• Ballad In Blood

Ruggero Deodato is back.

I´m really looking forward to watching Ballad in Blood, both Ballad in Blood and Cinema of Death was ordered from Discshop and the Cannibal Holocaust DVD came from Kvarnvideo as well.

I think I´m up to 3 copies of Cannibal Holocaust now but this one had a documentary I´ve never seen before as a bonus feature.

I´m gonna end this post with the link to Kvarnvideo as promised.

Again if you live in Sweden make sure to check them out.

Collection Update - March 17th, 2017

Time for another update :)

I´m thinking about keeping this as a weekly update thing, depending on the amount of movies of course.
It´s not every week that I get new movies even though lately that has been pretty much the case.

But in trying to find some structure to this I´m thinking that a weekly update would probably be the best, so I´m gonna go with that and see how that goes.

So anyway here are the most recent movies, I did get a couple of additional movies but I had already snapped a picture of these ones so the rest will have to wait until the next update :)

• Heart Stopper
• Carnival of Souls
• Dead of the Nite
• One Eyed Monster

These were all pretty much "blind buys", well not Carnival of Souls of course.

Buying a movie called "One Eyed Monster" featuring Ron Jeremy can only end one way - laughter.

I´m a huge fan of Troma and this seemed very close to the goofiness of their movies so I definitely wanted to check it out.

Dead of the Nite and Heart Stopper are both movies that I don´t know all that much about but Robert Englund is a personal favorite and Tony Todd is not all that shabby either.

I do make a few "Blind Buys" here and there, as long as I can get the movies for a fair price then I don´t see the harm in it.

I know certain people nag about why buy "crappy" horror movies?

Is that just to gain a larger collection?

First off all there are no guide map to collecting horror, I would NEVER tell anyone what to collect or even meddle in what someone else wants to buy.

Personally I collect Horror movies, all types of horror movies.

Some blind buys have turned out to be absolutely amazing just as some mainstream, highly raved about horror movies can turn out to be complete garbage.

I could go on an on about what I think about the people that constantly attack others on social media but I won´t (at least not now) instead I´m going to continue with this update:

• Stage Fright
• Silent Hill: Revelation
• Seconds Apart 
• Prowl

Here we have a pretty good example of how not all sequels turn out the way you want it to.

I LOVED the first Silent Hill movie but the sequel left me equally disappointed. 

The "monsters" of Silent Hill: Revelation is what you would expect but the story line was far from great. I will go into more of a detailed review on that on a later occasion.

• Dangerous Water aka Spring Break Shark Attack
• 5 Senses of Fear
• Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated Season 2 Vol 4
• God of Vampires

And lastly: 

• Survival of the Dead 
• The Nightmare Before Christmas
• Cell
• Scream 4

These were all alternate releases to movies I already have in my collection.

This is it for now, the next update will contain something pretty awesome so make sure to check back in for that :P

It´s 3 in the morning here (European Time) and I should be sleeping but I´m gonna try and get some work done on the main part of the blog before I try to go back to sleep.

Hope you´ll have a Good Night and a Great Weekend.

Bye for now

Collection Update - March 9th, 2017

I´ve fallen a bit behind with the Collection update posts, but I will try and catch up as soon as I possibly can.

I haven´t been feeling well over the past week so everything got a bit pushed back, I have a bunch of new movies that need to be added to the main site and I need to find a space for them in my already overstocked shelves.

I really need to exchange the shelve I have to make room for additional movies.
Oh and I past 1700 Horror Movies this week which is pretty insane, specially when I think about the amount of movies that are left on my "Wantlist" and those are just the movies I could think of on the top of my head.

But anyway here we go with the first part of the new movies, I will be adding the rest hopefully this weekend :)

• My Soul to Take 
• Let the Right one In
• The Gate - Collector´s Edition
• Saw
• In their Sleep
• Hunger

These were a mix of movies that I didn´t have (In their Sleep and Hunger) and a couple of different releases that I didn't have before, I really don´t have the space for alternate editions but its too much fun to pass up :P

• Scooby-Doo and the Ghosts
• Scooby-Doo meets Kiss
• Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King
• Scooby-Doo meets Batman

• Bug 
• Stigmata

This will have to do for now, I have to get on with cleaning the apartment and hopefully find space for the new movies in the process.
With a little luck there will be a package for me at the post office later on today as well.

Have a Spooktacular Day ;)

Collection Update - March 1st - 2017

I don´t know if its my Internet Connection that´s at fault or if it´s Bloggers servers that are acting up at the moment.
I´m having such issues with uploading content at the moment that it´s not even funny.

But I´m gonna try and give this another go before I have to go back to the weekly dusting of the collection (One of a very few downsides to collecting)

I´ve picked up a few new books as well as movies over the past 2 weeks, let´s start with the books:

• Stephen King - Gerald´s Game
• Clive Barker - The Damnation Game
• Clive Barker - Weaveworld

Books by Clive Barker is actually a pretty rare sight here so I´m always a little extra happy for the occasions when I manage to find any at all.

All three books were found at the Goodwill closest to my home.

And yes I´m the same with books as with my movies, I like to have as many different editions as possible.

If you go to my Stephen King Collection on my main site you´ll notice that I have multiple editions of most of the books :)

• Peter Benchley - Hajen/Jaws

Finding this was a treat I have the paperback edition of the book but that was released after the movie was already a success.

• Richard Backman (Stephen King) - Blaze

This one was actually a Christmas present from my Granma that I completely forgot to post.

She has made it her mission to find me as many Stephen King books as possible, which I´m definitely grateful for.

Okay on to the movies, I found the Jaws book at a Goodwill just outside of town, I forgot to mention that.

• From Dusk Till Dawn 1-3
• Hellraiser Hellseeker
• The Toolbox Murders 2005
• Henry Lee Lucas
• German Angst
• Hatchet III
• Shadow

Four new and four alternate releases is a fairly good mix I think :P

I bought the From Dusk Till Dawn box just cause I thought the box looked pretty sweet, Hellraiser was a must have the edition I had was one of the horrible 2 movies one case releases and I find them to be extremely boring.

Toolbox Murders and Underworld are alternate releases as well.

German Angst and Hatchet III were ordered online and the others were picked up at my favorite Video Store (That´s sadly closing its doors this month).

Or no wait I picked up From Dusk Till Dawn at the Goodwill as well, sorry.

And last but not least:

That´s right MORE Saw releases :P

• Saw IV - Director´s Cut
• Saw III
• Saw II - Clear Cover
• Saw II
• Saw - Unrated
• Saw - Steelbook

I think I´m at 20-something different Saw movies now.

The first couple of Saw movies were really good, I´m not a huge fan of the rest of the franchise, but from a collector´s standpoint I find them very fun to collect since there´s so many different releases out there :)

Anyway that´s it for this update.

I have a couple of new additions already but I´m waiting for a couple of movies to get here by mail before I post the next update :)

It´s now time to go back to cleaning.. always a pleasure.

I Hope You´ll all have a great evening or morning depending on where you´re at in the world when you´re reading this.

Bye
