Never seen The Never Ending Story but my son's got it on his shelf on Dvd so I will check it out at some point,always looked liked a well made family fantasy adventure!
Manhunnters cool I liked that,never seen any of the others you've picked up there johnny but they all look very interesting especially the Killer Dames double pack,Psychic Killer and the Jodie Foster flick The Little Girl That Lived Down The Lane.
Worth Winning I thought that was a lot of fun Atomik as was Hello Again,i've seen Dutch way back under an alternate title and I think remember it being good fun,also have watched Traces Of Red before but can't remember it very well at all!

The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane is available on both region A blu-ray (from Scorpion / Kino Lorber) and Region B (from UK's Signal One Entertainment). Quality-wise the transfers may be identical, but i decided to get the region A disc because it has slightly better extra's, including a director's commentary and a new, half hour interview with Martin Sheen.
Great movie (although a bit of a slowburner), and video-quality looks absolutely amazing. Highly recommended !
Here's two more 80s (semi-)classics from my latest package :

I have never seen these either, although i do have original advertising material for both from back in the day, promoting their release on rental video. So i'm happy to finally have these two movies in my collection now. It sort of makes me feel like i've come full circle, plus the fact that Kino Lorber always uses the original artwork adds that little extra nostalgic feel to these releases as well.

Backtrack I found pretty enjoyable Pittsburghgirl,the plot is a bit by the numbers but it's well made plus well acted by Adrien Brody,Sam Neil,etc. in all truth it's a rather enjoyable Horror Mystery!
Meatballs is a classic,it's such fun,i find it to be really funny in parts plus it's very good natured,Bill Murray is ace as well as one of the main camp counselors!

Money Pit is great fun Terd! I've been picking up quite a few releases of late but the good thing is it hasn't hit me to hard in the pocket as I'm using my savvy and picking up most of these when there in the sales Dr.Alien - £4.50p,Sleepaway Camp 3 - £6,Face Off/Snake Eyes - £4.26p it was only The Anthony Perkins double pack that was a bit more expensive at 12 UK pounds.
I definitely hold off if I think a film is too expensive even if it means missing out!

A bunch of imports from my June package include :
Man From Deep River (88Films blu-ray). The BBFC cut out some scenes of animal cruelty, but among its many extra's is a feature-length documentary about "cannibal actress" Me Me Lai, so that's pretty cool !
Burial Ground (88Films blu-ray). Excellent restoration blows every previous edition out of the water, and finally makes this Euro-trash splatter classic look like a real film !
Trancers 3 ; Deth Lives (88Films blu-ray) and Enemy Mine (Eureka UK blu-ray).
Black Widow and the fully loaded special edition of The Seven-Ups, both on blu-ray from UK's Signal One Entertainment.
Various US imports include :
Killer Force (1976, blu-ray), Christina (1984, blu-ray), Sorceress (1995, Synapse blu-ray), plus :

Yeah, according to Wiki it is the last movie released by Cannon. It´s a shame that cannon.org.uk seems to have vanished like you said...

Picked up Trees Lounge (1996) written and directed by Steve Buscemi, and L.A. Guns "Love, Peace and Geese" collection of videos. Both on VHS, found at my new favorite thrift store. I have a feeling I'm going to eventually find some valuable treasures there.

Pittsburghgirl. Have you seen Trees Lounge? I saw it back in the 90s and it was kinda odd but I was fine with that.

Terd, I'd guess I watched it about 4-5 years ago, when I had my first go-round with Netflix, and we did both streaming and disc rental. I remember watching it on disc. It was kinda slow, but quirky. Your typical 90's indie film. I had cancelled Netflix back in 2014, and I re-subscribed on New Year's Eve for streaming. Do they still do the disc rental too, does anyone know?

Love that Chain Of Command artwork Atomik,looks very similar to the old Uk VHS release of it we had over here,much better than the art for my no frills Chinese Dvd release of it I picked up some years back on eBay which has optional Chinese,English stereo audio and a 4.3 picture format.
Midnight Ride is another I own which is from the far east Thailand I presume as it has an optional Thai/English 5.1 audio track and same again with only a full screen picture ratio.
Both enjoyable Dudikoff/Cannon 90s flicks!

Never seen They All Laughed but would like to I believe it was Dorothy Stratten's last film before she was brutally murdered by her jealous boyfriend Paul Snider.
Picked up recently The Monster Squad,Stone Cold, Harry And The Henderson's,Jewel Of The Nile,Blood rage all on Blu and my son treated me to Creed also on Blu which i have yet to watch!

Nice pickups Young Warrior. Of those Stone Cold was Excellent IMO, also like Jewel of the Nile. Always like the artwork on JOTNile and RTStone. Nice to see they actually kept some of the vhs artwork on that bluray. I was disappointed with Harry and the Monster Squad. Never saw the other 2 that you posted. Whats your opinion?
