Kino Lorber

But that's why I love coming back.

to these brick and mortar vinegar syndrome stores is because they have things that are sold out online that you can find in their store shelves you just never know what you're gonna stumble across and that is half of the fun half of the hunt the thrill is really really going for me here and just like soaking in all of the essence of this store all the vibes it really does something to just like regenerate the battery of physical media love for me it's little things like this that just like stick with me for a very very long time as you can see here there are also other releases that are not vinegar syndrome related they have a whole bunch of boutique stuff aero video criterion full moon right there scream factory Kino Lorber.

The list goes on and on of a whole bunch of new stuff that they carry outside of the Vinson label.

And going down a little bit further, I was able to see a line that I've been trying to collect for myself, and that is Vestron Video.

And so I thought I might have had it on Blu-ray because it did get a Blu-ray release.

But that was by Kino and I don't have it.

And I was like, why do I recognize that cover artwork? So then when I was watching the movie today, something just kind of clicked with me.

And I don't know if it was seeing Larry Lamb in the title or something like that, but But for whatever reason, I kind of recognized it.

Now, as of this recording, you can watch The Spiral Staircase for free via Plex, but I can't find where you can rent or buy it digitally.

There's a Blu-ray out there from Kino Lorber, but it looks like it's out of print.

Now on to our Stars on Suspense.

Up first is Kent Smith, who co-stars with Margot in Last Night from June 15th, 1943, an episode written by Mel Dinelli from January 6th, 1949.

... a shitty rip on YouTube.

Like it was one of those where like the, um, uh, Kino Lorber, the repertory film program, they like helped him remaster it and like-

Mm-hmm

... they've taken it around the country, and I think around the world too.

And I think that's what it's back to.

I mean, there's, Magnolia, Kino Lorber, and then there's self-distribution.

And I think that is what people are relying on right now, that people will go to the movie theater and watch a documentary.

I do talk to a lot of documentary filmmakers who they kind of do this incremental theatrical rollout.

Hello, everyone.

Welcome to a special bonus episode of Shelf Space with Kino Lorber that's dedicated to your audience questions and your audience questions only.

Since we've received so many great ones over the last few months, we wanted to take this time to answer as many as we can.

We really value our viewers and our physical media community, and we want you to be heard.

Very cool.

I think we do have some questions about Westerns and box sets in here, maybe later on.

Bill Cunningham, not the Bill Cunningham, but I'm sure another great Bill Cunningham is asking, given that superhero movies today are massive blockbusters, do you think that it's a possibility that Studio Classics or Kino Cult could restore and release superhero movies of yesteryear? Wonderfully cheesy and fun movies like the three fantastic Superman series and Argo Man, Puma Man, Super Argo, Super Hero vs.

Diabolikis, and the multitude of Zorro, Tarzan, and other action movie, hero movies?
