Couldn’t agree more on Dawn of the Dead, I treasure it. It’s the first thing I’m saving if the house burns down 😂 I only started collecting 4K’s around 14 months ago, so I was late to a lot of these Second Sight releases. Now it’s my favourite company. Needless to say I’ve had to spend £100+ on quite a few of these LE’s. Luckily I found the LE Dawn of the Dead and The Guest (£70-75 each) at CEX and they were in near perfect condition. So that’s a route others could go down if they’re struggling to find Second Sight releases. Anyway, great video as always, love this channel!
Yeah Captain 🤩🤩 o would indeed rush to it myself as it's not like you can just buy another one from HMV 🤯😃 even though Ive been collecting 4ks since June 2018 I quickly realized that you have to be quick with these releases, you don't really have the chance to think hmmm I'll think about it for a few days 🤔🤔 it's great that you didn't have to pay too much for them mate 👍👍 I always hope to stumble across some of the ones I've missed in CEX but they rarely come up, thankfully there's not that many I've missed and I've got the big ones 😄😄 👍👍 thanks again for your kind words Captain 🤩🤩👌👌
I remember those Hammer releases were announced a while AFTER Network put out a press releases saying that they had signed a deal with Hammer to present all their stuff. I assuned that meant Network would re-issue all the Hammer films in new restorations and new releases, so i was confused when these two were released shortly after. Wasn't sure whether to get them or not but im glad i did as they look great. Managed to get Madeline Smith to sign the Frankenstein release recently.
I remember them coming out as well Gary, they are great releases you are right but I think Network folded before they seriously got into the Hammer stuff or they might have done more but sadly they will not be released by Netwotk, but possibly their back catalogue could be picked up by other companies so there be some special edition re releases coming out in the future Gary 🤞🤞😁😁👍👍
Very nice rankings John, those are some sweet editions. I haven't got any Second Sight Blu Rays or 4K's yet myself, but there are a couple I have my eye on. I'm still kicking myself for missing out on that sweet edition of Hammer's The Mummy, but the price never went down to where I was comfortable pulling the trigger on. And I don't know why they didn't have a standard edition release like they had with the Amicus films. They did George A. Romero proud with those releases of Martin and Dawn of the Dead, true Cult Classics. While I'm not a fan of zombie films, Romero was a very talented filmmaker, and a very eclectic film buff in his own right. I remember reading an interview with Martin Scorsese where he said as a young man he would rent classic films from this place in New York, and 9 times out of ten when he asked to rent Powell and Pressberger's Tales of Hoffman, the man at the counter would say "oh, that Romero kid just reserved it," which never fails to put a smile on my face. That an icon of Horror enjoyed the dream like beauty of Powell and Pressberger is always a pleasure to know. Take care my friend, hope you and the Debs are well, and speak to you soon.
That's a great tale Nash 🤩🤩👍👍 didn't know about that at all 😁😁👏👏 yeah it's strange that the Hammer films never went to standard releases, I think every other second sight has had a standard release so here's hoping it'll be soon mate 🤞🤞🤩🤩 yeah we are doing great Nash 😁😁👍👍 thanks and hope you are too buddy 😊😊👌👌
Good video John. I received my regular 4k edition of The Hitcher & it's a stunning transfer. I agree the regular editions should get a slipcover as I paid £28 for it direct from them.
Cheers Mark 😊😊👍👍 it looks fantastic but yeah they definitely need to put a slip on a the standard version is REALLY standard and should be £20 tops 😱😱😁😁👍👍
Good choices there John. I have been fortunate enough to also have those editions you showcased and they are all brilliant like everything Second Sight does. I've since retired my copy of From Beyond and grabbed that lovely Vinegar Syndrome 4k edition. I know what you mean about those Hammer releases. I'd have loved to have seen Second Sight do a whole bunch of lovely Hammer editions in 4k and hopefully we still get that one day. For now though I'll have to make do with a scattering of Hammer films from multiple labels including some lovely Screen Factory editions of Dracula, Brides of Dracula etc. As for Dawn of the Dead what a set! I still have my old Anchor Bay Ultimate DVD edition which I'll hold onto but this Second Sight 4k set is a beast. They don't put out as many titles as some boutiques labels but their quality bar is second to none in my opinion.
Cheers Darren 🤩🤩👍👍 can't believe the standard of Second Sights releases, any ones I want I pre order instantly to avoid going to the Scalpers 😱😱🤣 I hope Hammer work again with Second Sight and it would be great if they kept them in the same format!! 🤩🤩🤞🤞 be amazing to get a run of similar looking releases Darren as you say they are pretty much strewn to the winds on Blu Ray 😵💫 one can hope though!!! The Anchor Bay DOTD was definitely top of the tree for that film Darren 👏👏 yeah I agree that less is more when It comes to their output 🤩🤩👍👍 cheers again Darren 😁😁👌👌
Hey John. Great to see you showcasing your Second Sight releases. They're probably my favourite boutique label as the care they take in all elements of their releases is, imo, second to none. Very glad to be picking up the limited editions I missed on initial release (Dawn of the Dead cost me!) and I'd love to pick up The Guest, Picnic at Hanging Rock and The Witch. Can't wait to see where they fo in future. Take care, pal
Hi Steve, I have them really high up on my list of favorites but they probably do the best ever special editions (I think that 88 films release films I'm more interested in overall 🤔😁👍) I think I've picked up most of the ones I wanted thankfully 🤞🤞 but might take a look through eBay to see if there's any out there I would get and not have to sell any organs for Steve 🤯🤣🤣👍👍
Another great selection of Second Sight releases. I remember the early days of second sight when they were fairly average releases/ editions. Second sight releases such a range of genre films but they are now all such well presented. I agree with your list and am really grateful to have almost all of these. I agree that second sight would be perfect company to release Hammer 4Ks. Long live second sight.. Thank you.
Yeah when making this video it reminded me of how small they started out with their presentations and wow have they cornered the market in making some of the most amazing special editions 🤯👏👏 you're right that they do mix it up and to be honest you never know what they will release next 🤔🤩👍 for me they could finally do the Hammer 4ks the special treatment they need Gothic 😃😃👌👌 yeah Viva Second Sight!! Cheers again mate 🤩🤩👍👍
Assault on Precinct 13 has a 4K scan completed I'm just waiting for it to be released on disc. I imagined Shout Factory would be releasing it as they've done most of the Carpenter films on 4K.
Hello John. Second Sight is my favourite boutique label so I've got quite a few now, a couple I'd add to that list would be The Witch, It Follows and Picnic at Hanging Rock. All great movies and the definitive versions in terms of overall package.
Hi Gary 😁👍 yeah they definitely release the best editions mate 👏👏 I was looking through eBay to maybe pick a few of those up and WOW!!!! they aren't cheap Gary 😲😲😵💫😵💫🤣🤣👍👍
Really entertaining video, Second Sight Films is a great label and have a lot of them myself. The Hitcher my favourite edition and The Changeling and Session 9, most of these you show are out of print. Fantastic stuff matey
@timcole418 thanks Tim 😁👍 glad you enjoyed it 🤩 The Changeling is such an amazing film but I have the US 4k so I didn't go for it on Second Sight, I pounced on these ones as soon as they came out, they weren't cheap but the second hand market on them is nuts!! 😵💫😵💫 cheers Tim appreciate the comment 😁😁👍👍
The Changeling is really grainy in a few scenes although an upgrade from the D.V.D I had, looking forward to the Second Sight Films release of Creep and Late Night With The Devil, cheers matey
@timcole418 the US one was grainy in places as well Tim, buy when it was nice it was 👌👌😁😁 yeah me too, especially Late night with the Devil!!! Loved that filum Tim 🤩🤩👍👍
It was one of the first releases that I saw sky rocket in value!! It should have had a wider release in this edition and it truly is a great release that came abd went really fast bud!! Hopefully you can score one someday 🤞🤞🤩🤩👍👍
Have been checking the second hand online market and you’re definitely right!!! I missed the Texas chainsaw one and the best I could find one for was £100 but every one else is charging £150 !!!
@RobertMunro-wb6jb it's awful to have to go to the second hand market Robert 😭 I remember buying the US blu ray of Nightmare in a Damaged Brain for £50 and it came out a few months later in U K for £8.99 🥴🥴🤪🤪
Great selection matey.. I'm looking forward to recollecting a lot of the Second Sight releases again.. definitely alongside Arrow as one of my favourite distributors 😎👍 in fact Arrow not as much now as I used to favour them..
Cheers Marcus 🤩🤩👍👍 me too about the Arrow releases of late! Been quite underwhelmed by most of them mate, whereas Second Sight seem to have a lot more hits than misses 🤔🤩👍
Hi John, A great label Second Sight Films, one of the very best, even though "The Strangers" is classed as a home invasion horror movie its one that"s creepy & underrated for me, & i have that edition too, get watching John, think you"ll like it. "Assault on Precinct 13" would make a must have 4K collectors edition & i"m surprised they"ve not upgraded as of yet, good to see "The Hitcher" in the top 10 list, "The Texas Chain saw massacre" among favourites for sure, & i love the colour scheme on the packaging, a beauty indeed. It had to be "Dawn of the Dead" my no.1 too, i have the "Drive" set & thought that might be in your listing, also i was tempted with the "Mean Streets" but i didn"t pull the trigger as its a gangster movie i like but not a personal fav. "Day of the Dead" would make a epic release from Second Sight 🤔🙏, top notch as always John 👍
Hi Carlos 😊😊👍👍 good call with Day of the Dead on second sight 😁😁👏👏 was great to go through some of these editions with you in the flesh when we met up mate 😊😊👌👌 I find that browsing the shelves with a Collector can't be beaten mate 😁😁👏👏 I think we have very similar tastes when I comes to Second Sight 🤔 here's a question for you what Clint Eastwood film would you like to see them tackle 🤔🤔 I'll go first think Gran Torino would work really well Carlos 🤩🤩👍👍
@@MondoChelloveckMovies Likewise my friend it was great meeting you last week & speaking in person 😎it won’t be the last time. The Dirty Harry movies from Second Sight id love, but what would fit in their catalogue I’m thinking “Play Misty for me” would be a great one as it’s a psychological slasher thriller that would interest a lot of new movie fans & collectors 😎
@eastwood4lifefan334 yeah I think the meeting up was the start of a regular thing for us Carlos 🤞🤞 yeah I'm still thinking about that day bud was definitely a high point of the year for me 🤩🤩👏👏 good calls on the Dirty Harry films and Play misty for me would work as well...... imagine the Dollars Trilogy 😱😱😱😊😊😊👏👏👏👏
Another great video John, Always kicked myself for not getting that Assault on Precinct 13 as its one of my favourite films, Shame Second sight didn't get all of the Carpenter films, how amazing would they have looked. I have those two Hammer sets, i also own the two Amicus ones they released, The one thing i like about Second sight that the other labels don't do is the fact that all the sets look the same design wise, They all have dark colours and look like they used the same artist. I will check out the Argento cut of Dawn of the dead this month as its the only one i haven't seen and you have talked me into it lol, Are you doing 31 days this year? Thanks mate.
Yeah Mark, that Assault on Precinct 13 set was definitely one of the first I saw going for crazy money online mate 🤯🤯 I agree that Second Sight could have done a fantastic job doing all the Carpenter films 👍👍 I remember those 2 Amicus sets coming out and bam! They sold out quick 🥴 the Argento cut is definitely recommended Mark, really different film to the Romero version! Especially the music is different as well 👌im not doing the 31 days mate, that would be well beyond me 😱🤣 hats off to those who do!! 👏👏 I had a plan to do something for October but I've only watched 2 horror films this month thus far so I think that's not going to happen unfortunately 😵💫😵💫 Cheers for watching Mark 🎃🎃🤘🤘
Love this relaxed format with the unboxing John 👍👍👌 Dog Soldiers, this is one of my favourite werewolf films. I ended up triple dipping on this 😡 1st was Scream Factory, I don't recommend this as the picture is crap. 2nd was Koch Media from Germany. This is 4K, but they didn't do so much restoration. 3rd was Second Sight, I unfortunately discovered this after I bought the first two. Ah well, I learnt a bit about researching before purchasing with this title 🙄😁
Thanks Mark 😊😊👍👍 enjoyed doing it myself bud, I might my next Arrow video in this format 🤔😊👍 I'm so glad i didn't try to get Dog Soldiers before this one Mark, saying that I've been duped many times over the years with inferior releases mate 🤯🤯😱😁👍
Hi John, I knew Dawn would be top mate. It’s a cracking set but I still think that it could be improved upon. For me it’s the colour timing. I just wish that they hadn’t got Michael Gornick involved. As far as I’m aware, he’s been involved with 3 different releases and they all look different. I think it’s just how he feels on the day!
Hi Christopher 🤩👍 yeah it's got to be one hell of a set to topple Dawn mate 😁😁 I wish they could have got that FULL version in here or even the extra scenes in as extras? 🤔🤩👍👍
One criticism i have of Second Sight collections is how they take the new artwork and put it on everything...the box, the slip, the poster, the artcards. I really like the colourful Grahan Humphreys art on the Hammer releases but it would have been nice to have a reversable cover with the iriginal art. Im not keen keen on the Matt Ferguson silhouettes on the horizon style. The Changeling was ok but a little dull. The recent release of Gonjiam and upcominy Late Night with the Devil are both pretty unimaginative compared to original promotional artwork.
They can be understated at times Gary, I do prefer the Hammer ones as they really stand out but some of the ones they put out with the minimal artwork can work well 🤔🤩👍 although it might not cost that much for them in the way of commissions for artists, so that could be passed down Gary 🤔🤩👍
Hello John, great video mate. Secondsight are almost never beat on quality of releases, that being said due to the price of getting them to Ireland I've only picked up TCM and The Changeling limited editions from secondsight directly, and some standards from amazon. I wouldnt trust amazon to ship a nice edition like that mate. I liked what you said about what makes an edition special or above the rest, for me its getting more cuts of the film that arent on the standard release or a cd disc. I wish I got that Dawn of the Dead edition though, I have the black and red standard one which thankfully has the 3 cuts. Have you pre ordered the blair witch mate ? Im getting the standard for it and cant wait to finally see it the way its supposed to look 👍
Cheers Teabags 🤩🤩👍👍 it's a shame that your location proves difficult in receiving these sets in the best possible way mate 😳 especially ones from Second Sight, as they are fast becoming the ones to release the ultimate editions of great films!! I agree that it's great to have exclusive items in there, things like CD soundtracks are great and different cuts are always welcome 😁😁👍👍 I'm interested in the Blair Witch set mate as I liked the film, haven't seen it for ages as well, cheers again bud 🙂🙂👍👍
From beyon has been a favourite of mine for a long time ! It’s a good movie based on lovecraft ! I have it on vhs and I’m going to get that new 4k when it is released! Some great titles as usual!!!
From Beyond should get more recognition Robert 🤔🤩👍 you will be blown away by the 4k mate the Vinegar Syndrome one is awesome 🤩🤩 👏👏 thanks Robert very happy with them 😃😃👍👍
If you don’t mind me asking wear did you get the Texas chainsaw massacre second sight 4k ??? Its out of stock on there web site but I can tell your from the north and I live in the north east and I was wondering if you got it from a shop ???? If not I’m going to have to take the £100 hit on e bay !!!!
Yeah my fault! You snooze you loose! But it looks beautiful and I am going to order it now on e bay ! All those extras look amazing! Especially the book ! But I did order the hitcher one and got that a wile back and have now got notification on second sight because I don’t want to miss any of there stuff at retail because they always end up quite expensive!!!!
@RobertMunro-wb6jb unfortunately you have to act straight away on these, would be great to get them in a sale but sometimes they don't even get in the shops 😬😬 TCM is a beautiful set Robert and it's good you can set a notification on future releases mate 🤩🤩👍👍
Couldn’t agree more on Dawn of the Dead, I treasure it. It’s the first thing I’m saving if the house burns down 😂 I only started collecting 4K’s around 14 months ago, so I was late to a lot of these Second Sight releases. Now it’s my favourite company. Needless to say I’ve had to spend £100+ on quite a few of these LE’s. Luckily I found the LE Dawn of the Dead and The Guest (£70-75 each) at CEX and they were in near perfect condition. So that’s a route others could go down if they’re struggling to find Second Sight releases. Anyway, great video as always, love this channel!

Dog Soldiers, this is one of my favourite werewolf films. I ended up triple dipping on this 😡
1st was Scream Factory, I don't recommend this as the picture is crap.
2nd was Koch Media from Germany. This is 4K, but they didn't do so much restoration.
3rd was Second Sight, I unfortunately discovered this after I bought the first two.

Hi John, I knew Dawn would be top mate. It’s a cracking set but I still think that it could be improved upon. For me it’s the colour timing. I just wish that they hadn’t got Michael Gornick involved. As far as I’m aware, he’s been involved with 3 different releases and they all look different. I think it’s just how he feels on the day!
Hi Christopher 🤩👍 yeah it's got to be one hell of a set to topple Dawn mate 😁😁 I wish they could have got that FULL version in here or even the extra scenes in as extras? 🤔🤩👍👍
Hi John Good video second Sight are great one of the best out there
Cheers Mike 😁😁👍👍 couldn't agree more bud 🤔😁😁👏👏
Second Sight are one of the top labels out there imo.
Thank you John.
They certainly are Cheekster 🤩🤩👏👏 thanks for watching mate 😄😄👍👍
One criticism i have of Second Sight collections is how they take the new artwork and put it on everything...the box, the slip, the poster, the artcards. I really like the colourful Grahan Humphreys art on the Hammer releases but it would have been nice to have a reversable cover with the iriginal art. Im not keen keen on the Matt Ferguson silhouettes on the horizon style. The Changeling was ok but a little dull. The recent release of Gonjiam and upcominy Late Night with the Devil are both pretty unimaginative compared to original promotional artwork.
They can be understated at times Gary, I do prefer the Hammer ones as they really stand out but some of the ones they put out with the minimal artwork can work well 🤔🤩👍 although it might not cost that much for them in the way of commissions for artists, so that could be passed down Gary 🤔🤩👍
Hello John, great video mate. Secondsight are almost never beat on quality of releases, that being said due to the price of getting them to Ireland I've only picked up TCM and The Changeling limited editions from secondsight directly, and some standards from amazon. I wouldnt trust amazon to ship a nice edition like that mate. I liked what you said about what makes an edition special or above the rest, for me its getting more cuts of the film that arent on the standard release or a cd disc. I wish I got that Dawn of the Dead edition though, I have the black and red standard one which thankfully has the 3 cuts. Have you pre ordered the blair witch mate ? Im getting the standard for it and cant wait to finally see it the way its supposed to look 👍
Cheers Teabags 🤩🤩👍👍 it's a shame that your location proves difficult in receiving these sets in the best possible way mate 😳 especially ones from Second Sight, as they are fast becoming the ones to release the ultimate editions of great films!! I agree that it's great to have exclusive items in there, things like CD soundtracks are great and different cuts are always welcome 😁😁👍👍 I'm interested in the Blair Witch set mate as I liked the film, haven't seen it for ages as well, cheers again bud 🙂🙂👍👍
Excellent list John 👍🏻
Cheers Gazza 🤩🤩👍👍 Second Sight are such an amazing company 😃😃👏👏

@@RobertMunro-wb6jb I ordered it from Second Sights website the moment it was announced Robert, so it was a while back when I got it mate 👍👍👍👍
Yeah my fault! You snooze you loose! But it looks beautiful and I am going to order it now on e bay ! All those extras look amazing! Especially the book ! But I did order the hitcher one and got that a wile back and have now got notification on second sight because I don’t want to miss any of there stuff at retail because they always end up quite expensive!!!!
@RobertMunro-wb6jb unfortunately you have to act straight away on these, would be great to get them in a sale but sometimes they don't even get in the shops 😬😬 TCM is a beautiful set Robert and it's good you can set a notification on future releases mate 🤩🤩👍👍
