Curiosity got the best of me at the 5:37 mark and after a quick check online I was on the way to my local Barnes & Noble to pick up a 4k copy of Crimson Peak. Along for the ride home came Night Falls on Manhattan, The Shootist, and the 4k of Dark Water. Side note related to Dark Water, back in the early 2000s I was getting a crepe for breakfast in San Francisco's Japantown and saw Koji Suzuki (author of the Ring novels and the Dark Water short stories, among others) coming out of Kinokuniya (Japanese bookstore) next door. He was kind enough to wait while I ran inside to buy a copies of Ring and Dark Water for him to sign. Now to finish watching your Arrow Reaction.
Hey, I missed the live stream but caught the replay. I saw A Simple Plan in the theaters. Really messed up plot, very obvious that Sam Raimi was influenced by his friends, The Coen Bros, with that one. I picked up At Close Range in MVD's black Friday sale last year but still haven't watched it. I definitely remember seeing it on TV in the 90s but dont remember anything about it socitll be like a first watch again.
Hello, Dude. Glad you had a chance to catch the stream. A Simple Plan and At Close Range are a couple of titles I’m considering from Arrow’s November releases.
A Simple Plan is a 5 star movie for me. Absolutely love it. And Shawscope 3 is a must. I have all of the shaw brothers sets from Arrow and Shout so I'm obviously a huge fan of their movies. If you want to give a Shaw Brothers title a shot, Eight Diagram Pole fighter is a great movie to start with. Arrow is a stand alone release of it. An earlier title they have a stand alone release of is One-Armed Boxer which I'd also highly recommend.
Totally pumped to the max for A Simple Plan! Blu ray has been out of print for years, so a 4k (native 4k/DV/HDR10) is icing on cake. It has that Fargo vibe, but very different script, not a cheap ripoff. Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton play off of each other to the hilt in a very original and brilliant script imo. I compare it somewhat to Treasure of the Sierra Madre, starring Bogart, with found treasure, human greed to the max.

Ha ha. Love it. Sounds like an adventurous haul! Congrats if you were able to snag that Crimson Peak 4K limited edition.

Cool. I’m looking forward to checking out A Simple Plan. Thanks for the recommendation on Eight Diagram Pole and One-Armed Boxer.
Amen on the 5 star for A Simple Plan.

I’m looking forward to seeing A Simple Plan. I might have seen it a long time ago but I don’t think so.
