Severin Films

I'm David Gregory from Severin Films, and we're here for the audio commentary of Threads.

Mick Jackson, director.

My name is Kayla Janese.

Um, it probably got some kind of theatrical release here in, uh, America or in England in the '60s, but absent from home video.

And, uh, Severin Films, they are the ones who, uh, resurrected it and released it on Blu-ray f- uh, quite a few years ago, uh, maybe four or five years ago.

And it was a, it's a pretty good, uh, restoration.

It looks really good, but there's some obvious, like, defects in the film materials.

I have probably more than 20 different Blu-rays, including I, I, much like Charles, I love the giallo, so I've got, like, all the forgotten giallo box sets, and I think three of them I still haven't even watched.

That's nine fucking movies that are just giallo that I have yet to, uh, to g- get into, and then never mind Severin and Synapse and Arrow and ...

Yeah, it's, it's terrible.

It's a terrible habit, Charles, but I'm glad that ...

One of my favorites is the All the Haunts Are Ours, the, that folk f- uh, folk horror box set that came out a few years ago from-

Mm.

I think from Severin It's just beautiful.

Yeah.

So, uh, keep it up, Radiance.

[lips smack] A Bay of Blood has been issued in 4K from, uh, Severin Films.

It's a Mario Bava title.

I do believe it's a Mario Bava title.

And, uh, an elderly heiress is killed by her husband, and it triggers a series of brutal killings in the surrounding bay area.

Yeah, if you like Mario Bava, you know what to expect.

But it has been, as I said, issued in 4K from Severin Films.

Not Quite Hollywood is a documentary on the Ozploitation, uh, exploitation genre cinema of the '70s and '80s.

Like I said earlier, some of the best extras acting I think I've ever seen.

Yeah, and there's a great Blu-ray extra from Severin Films, a nice hefty documentary which interviews lots of the extras, and they obviously just had a real ball when they were making it.

I mean, I guess they were committed, 'cause a lot of them were members of CND, which when you think about the squeaky clean thing, I suppose, for the BBC, maybe that would've been a bit awkward, the fact that loads of the people working on it, including Karen Meagher, who was committed to that.

But they had a great time, uh, making it, but they are totally convincing.

So anyway, there's stuff like, there's so many different featurettes about the Grand Guignolesque in here in addition to all of the movies.

But yes, you can find it at our company, Severin Films' website, severinfilms.com. And ultimately, it will be on all, you know, Amazon and all of that.

But at first, it's going to be on severinfilms.com. And you can get it in a bundle with three of the aforementioned posters as well.

So...
