Love this site. Still, the off-center Dracula will forever drive me crazy. God help me I have rational thoughts on this: 1) His being in the center would overcrowd the image as a whole. 2) It makes more sense dramatically for him to appear as though he's nearing her neck rather than her cheek. 3) Similarly, he's an off-center character so it makes sense that he'd be off-center in the image. He doesn't come at you head on; he creeps up. Centering him is the same as foregrounding him and that doesn't make sense for the character. Doesn't mean you have to like it but goddammit you have to respect it. I missed this when you posted it, but I would have disagreed with you then, too. It just looks wrong!

I'm looking forward to Shout! Factory's new Blu-ray of the movie tonight. From the FSM report, it seems image quality should be boffo. I think I'll go with the original color.

This makes me sad. It's not even available digitally, just the too-short album (and I don't usually say that, but really true in this case.)

This makes me sad. It's not even available digitally, just the too-short album (and I don't usually say that, but really true in this case.) Probably because unlike most Varese Deluxe Editions from the past decade, they don't have perpetuity rights to the title. They had to sub-license the album from UMG and the additional music from Universal Pictures, just like Intrada or LLL would have had to do. That makes digital releases very complicated if not impossible. Yavar

Ugh! Why to these releases instantly go to double the price the day they sell out? Even a reputable dealer like MovieMusic already lists it for 20 dollars more (although its out of stock). Is there an unwritten rule on this instant price hike? It would have been nice for Varese to do a low quantity alert. I have been wanting this CD set, and would have purchased it sooner had I known it was in the danger zone. Too bad "budget labels" don't exist for this (admittedly "boutique") market, like RCA-Camden back in the day....

I should point out that I'm not sad for myself. I purchased the album day one and I'm grateful for it in every way. Just wish it were available for everybody all the time like everything else frankly.

I nabbed this last Halloween, after already having a near heart attack by almost missing out on Back to the Future III deluxe, which also vanished without a trace. Recently ordering Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which just sold out, now gives me reason to invest in aspirin, the giant kind of throat clogger that requires more than a spoonful of sugar. Off topic PS: Why is The Omen digital album only the Deluxe Edition and not the 40th Anniversary version?

One of the BEST expansions EVER!! Things like this and THE COWBOYS and THE EIGER SANCTION (even lesser expansions like THE RIVER & ALWAYS) bring such joy to me. The effort and love that goes into the remastered sound and the booklets and presentation is just phenomenal. I salute their efforts.
