Great haul! If I could suggest one that you should pick up it would be Manila in the Claws of Light. Great depiction of the issues underlying the Philippines. Also would love to see a vid on your top foreign film recommendations!

Enjoy your 31 days. I look forward to more videos.

Hello Dave! Sounds like some Great plans. I'm hoping to do a lot this month. I watched "I Married A Witch last year. I can't remember if that is the movie that has the woman that played Grand Ma Ma in The Addams Family series. Anyway, thanks for the update.

I've begun my Horrorthon already/ So far I've watched The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, The Halloween Tree, The Hitcher, The Hitcher II, The Mummy's Hand, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Revenge of the Creature and some episodes of Bewitched. Many more planned yet.

I watched Abigail yesterday which is a great modern Vampire film if you have not seen it.

Sounds good. I plan to watch horror every day also. If I miss any day, it’ll be outweighed by the days I watch 2 or more.

I am super-excited about this. Cannot wait to check out all your uploads this month (and every month haha)

I meant to say 31 Days Of Halloween instead of 31 Days of October but you get the idea 🤣 🎃 👻

I may pick up that CC book. Thanks for sharing.

Great collection! I'm with you on Gold Diggers of 1933! I just watched 42nd Street ❤ I recommend checking out Stage Door 1937

I would LOVE to see a film books collection video from you! I’ve been an avid film book collector since I was in my tweens, and I love seeing other people’s collections and finding new titles that way. I own the digital version of The Batman, but I haven’t watched it yet. One thing I will say about it, though, I loved the trailer that was released before the film came out. As soon as I heard Nirvana playing, I was like “this is the film for me!!”

We arrange our boutique Blu-rays by label, each label in alphabetical order. Then, all the 4Ks are together sorted alphabetically and finally standard Blu Ray by themselves, again alphabetically. We don’t do horror at all besides some John Carpenter and old Hammer films that my husband has. We did watch The Dead Don’t Die at the weekend which was excellent, but more of a Jarmusch does parody horror Shaun of the Dead style. We’re going to fill Shocktober with dark comedies (DarkComTober?) while looking forward to Noirvember. Regarding Star Trek, again that’s hubbies department, as is The Last of Us (playing, not watching). Like Jessie, I just have a Switch. The weather’s been wet and cold here recently so we’ve having warm stews, curries, and hot and spicy dinners. Best wishes and I hope you both and have a great week.

I don’t begrudge anyway who does, but I personally don’t like the remastered effects on Star Trek. I almost always go to my blu ray and pick the original version because (1) I don’t think the new stuff matches well; (2) I find that kind of thing insulting to the hard work of the original spfx artists.

I think the oddest thing about your Horror movie library is that you own "Exorcist II: The Heretic" but none of the other movies in that series.. I'm not knocking "Exorcist II" in fact I love John Boornan's trippy and dreamy visual aesthetic as well as the dreamlike Ennio Morricone score.. Not to mention, Linda Blair has never looked so beautiful as she did in "The Heretic.." no longer a kid, but still with the straight 70s hair she had before the 80s came around and turned her hair into a loaf of bread.. . I just found it strange that you don't have the original "Exorcist.." It's a true masterpiece... I was also surprised that you don't have the original "My Bloody Valentine," one of the best and most atmospheric of the early 80s slashers.. I remember what a huge deal it was when they finally released the film with all the gore scenes restored.. Horror fans waited 30 years to see that one! Lastly, might I recommend my personal favorite American "giallo" from 1976, "Alice, Sweet Alice...." I believe no horror movie collection is complete without that seminal horror flick..

Really enjoyed your video and have put some on my wishlist. Do you try and do the 31 days of Horror or is it not for you? I watch as many as i can but always fall short.

Cinema Dave u are awesome

Highly recommend The Uninvited from 1944.

Vampyr is SO good. So creepy. The perfect October film

Yeah, Criterion isn’t big on horror, but they do have a respectable sample.

I have the Criterion DVD of Scanners. I want to eventually get that Blu-ray edition of Night of the Living Dead

Dave, I own most of those, except I have one that you didn’t mention, Eyes Without A Face.

Cool stuff Dave. I have a couple of those titles. I also have The Uninvited by Criterion. House is very strange but I like it. Even though it's not Criterion, I watched Sleepy Hollow for the first time last night. I just watched the 4k of the original Godzilla a couple of weeks ago. I have the Japanese release. Anyway, good stuff.

2 horror uploads in 1 week? At this rate, I think I’ll miss out Shocktober and come up smiling in Noirvember (Withnail and I reference).

In October, all the movies I watch (which will probably be 40-50) will be horror, monster, or horror comedy except if there's an anniversary I want to acknowledge or the one-Roger-Corman-movie-a-week series I'm following picks non horror. We decorate a little and we hand out candy, but the main way I celebrate Halloween is spooky movies.

I love when you give us a sneak peek of your massive film collection. It’s always great seeing what other film fans have on their shelves. In October, I’ll probably be watching a lot of classic horror (no surprise there, haha!). I was hoping that Criterion Channel would have done another pre-Code horror line-up, but it doesn’t look like it this year.

Pretty cool stuff Dave. I'm hoping to watch a lot more horror this year.

I’d like to see a video on that Close Encounters book. I just finished the latest Horrors Greatest and did not know about how Cujo is supposed to be pronounced.

Great collection!!!

..... BOOOOO! 👻

I love how you both cut your pizzas into little triangles. More fun to eat that way, right? Aaron Pynn! Gosh, what a stellar guy.

Wow, what an interesting week you both had. I simply love the look at that BBS story Criterion box set which unfortunately we don’t have here, but we do have some of the individually released titles. Five Easy Pieces is an incredible film and one of our favourite Jack Nicholson movies The Last Picture show on the 4K Criterion disc is also quite special. We also have Easy Rider which we still haven’t watched yet. I don’t think I’ve ever started AND ended a week with pizza or any one thing now that I think about it. I get too bored having the same thing which is what always me keeps me interested in cooking as I get older. With regards to cooking shows, are you familiar with The Great British Back Off which is a long running and enjoyable series here. We feel the same as you regarding AI and the future of film making. Honestly, although it’s also not for us, we think that AI will kill great cinema. Yes, as Jessie said it has its place, the problem is that studios will always take the easy, and potentially cheaper solution, and use it across the board with as much as they can get away with. Like you, we are fans of films that feature great character development and with AI, just ask yourself the question, how can you achieve great character development when there’s simply no real actors in the film. You simply take away everything of value and humanity. An early example is with special effects that you touched on. Practical effects always felt incredible because they were really making the impossible possible. The carrier of say Rob Bottin is a prime example. CGI Special effects became over used and we can see the same happening with AI, unfortunately. Have a great week, hope Jessie is feeling fully recovered after her jabs.

Hello sir your channel got randomly recommended to me today by KZbin. I love movies but I haven’t seen like 90% of the ones you have, and I don’t even know what criterion collection is haha. But I just wanted to say that after watching a few of your videos, it’s apparent you just live love doing what you love! It’s always a breath a fresh air to see someone doing something they love and sharing that with the world without an ounce of pretense. Just wanted to say thanks and keep it up! Cheers 😊

I'm glad we're in autumn now, even though it's 90-something degrees where I live.

Just watched Arsenic and Old Lace with the fam on Saturday for its 80th anniversary.

Just recently got turned on to The Persuaders, such a great show, you can really tell Moore and Curtis are having fun and hamming it up.

Hi Dave, A week behind watching your Vlog video's, really enjoyed looking at your horror collection again, some great horror classics there, I never think about having a digital collection, i should do as films are very cheap to pick up. I also start getting our chocolates and sweets in now ready for the little monsters who won't leave me alone on Halloween. Thank you for your video. Mark

They look so awesome, I wish they were cheaper. I have been inspired by you to have my own filmmaker study . I have chosen director Sean Baker who I love listening to speak about movies I recently picked up the criterion of his film Takeout (amazing) and his soon to be released movie Anora won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival this year. See you Monday

I do enjoy your titles where you show and share them with a smile

Love your collection it’s really good looking watch

Box sets nice

I have checked out imprint movies

You amazing Dave

I didn’t know Imprint was releasing a Harvey Keitel set, that’s awesome! He’s so often over-looked in my opinion. Nice to see him getting the spotlight for once.

An excellent collection of titles there Dave. I am sure you will like "The Persuaders". I have bought The UK VHS releases and subsequently The Network DVDs and Blu Rays. But I am very tempted to pick up the Imprint release for the new extras. Hope you enjoy and very happy viewing!

Nice collection, you'll like The Persuaders, I have the DVD collection, watched it last year and did a short review of it . Pre- Bond, Roger Moore, still the best Bond and he shows some of it in this series.

Very cool stuff Dave. I actually have an old region B set of the persuaders. I watched the first few episodes and I liked it. I might have to check out that Smoke box set. I never heard of them. Anyway, thanks Dave.

The Keitel sets are great, Dave. The Persuaders are great fun, too. I have the earlier DVD set but the Imprint ones are next level with the extras. Thanks for showcasing them.

I have the 8 movie Friday the 13th dvd box set that came out about 20 years ago, so a few years ago i bought the digital version for 13 dollars. It's cool they still do that deal on Friday the 13ths.

Hello Dave Nice candy haul , my kids get excited about this time of the year,Target starts carrying the monsters cereals (count chocula and Frankenberry being our favorites) . Love your film studies and collection videos. Have a great week guys

Good timing on Leone. Last Thursday was the 60th anniversary of “A Fistful of Dollars,” that kicked off the no-name “trilogy” and America’s love affair with Spaghetti Westerns.
