Busy release week Alan! The Responder is a bloomin fantastic series, and The Man Who Haunted Himself is a great movie. Take care mate 👍

[@kermitsghost]

It certainly was, ahh thanks for the heads up on The Responder (thats one I missed when it aired on TV) enjoy the rest of your week mate, take care👍😃👍

[@carlinio9]

Love it Alan you keep going, your be speaking Japanese fluently 😆 Really well done honestly. Great pick ups and will be picking the same up but probably in 4K to follow the previous movies. Nice from imprint as well. So much out today as well. I bet Brighton was packed in the sun by the time you got home especially in this heat. Speak soon and great video.😃👍

[@kermitsghost]

Tell me about it Carl, I’m showing another Japanese film next Monday 😆 blimey Brighton was heaving by midday 😫 once the sun comes out everyone heads to the beach 🌞 (good for the city though, enjoy your pick ups when you get them mate, take care👍😃👍

[@miserableoldgit1411]

alan great vid mate loved the man who haunted himself very underrated movie look foward to next week as i liked the movie jigsaw great to see where it was shot hope you are all ok steve

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Steve, I’ve been all over the city today filming the Jigsaw movie locations, I managed to track down the main house from the start (thank goodness) cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@Dezimondo]

Awesome video Alan. I recently picked up 4:00 Gonjiam boxset from local HMV but I haven't watched it yet. The artwork of the boxset is really nice.

[@Kotdt1]

great video and nice films

[@kermitsghost]

Thank you very much Danny, enjoy the rest of your week mate, take care👍😃👍

[@kaz99000]

Hey Alan, great pickups and Imprints here. A couple I'm going to be adding to my watch list. Catacombs sounds like a really interesting watch. Not heard of that one before. I honestly wasn't a big fan of the last ghostbusters film, so I'm a bit wary going into frozen empire. Hope all is good with you, take care.

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Kaz, Catacombs is a fun film, obviously it’s dated but the story and performances are solid 👌 ahh if you didn’t like the last Ghostbusters then you may not like this one 😬 yeah I’m all fine and dandy that’s Karis, hope you are too, take care👍😃👍

[@matt_allen]

These videos are always the highlight of my Monday!! Keep it up!!! 👍

[@kermitsghost]

Very kind of you to say Matt, it’s very much appreciated mate, take care👍😃👍

[@SBAYLISS]

That coincidence about the m4 was indeed really weird 😮

[@kermitsghost]

A spooky one at that 😬 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@roybarratt5609]

Hey Alan 👋 some good stuff this week. I've been getting into Basil Dearden recently so that's more added to the list 👍

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Roy, yes, it was a name I was unfamiliar with until recently, he seems to be popping up a lot 🧐 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@LisaLoves]

Those are some lovely editions from Imprint! I keep meaning to try ‘Responder’ but have never got around to it.

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Lisa, it’s very kind of Imprint to continue sending me these lovely editions to review for them 🙏 yeah the same with me, it’s a show that passed me by. Take care Lisa👍😃👍

[@rhmedia1701]

Excellent and informative Alan as usual. IMPRINT knocking out some rare but good films.

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Richard, your too kind, Love that Imprint are knocking these out, I guess if Network were still operating, they would some of these out too, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@MattVs_Movies]

Nice pick ups 👍. Not seen Godzilla v Kong New Empire yet nor Ghostbusters frozen Empire, funny how both have Empire in the titles

[@kermitsghost]

Cheers Matt, I didn’t even notice that mate 🧐 well spotted…take care👍😃👍

[@jayzee5351]

Great vid 👍 looks like the Australian labels are the place to go for vintage British films & TV 😊

[@kermitsghost]

Oddly enough it certainly is seeming that way 🧐 Network used to but now they have gone unfortunately. Cheers mate, much appreciated, take care 👍😃👍

[@FoxtailCinematics]

I might have to track down that Fist of Legend on 4K. Looks great!

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Justin, I believe it’s only the UK that has the 4K edition (at the moment) hope you can get yourself a copy 👌 take care mate👍😃👍

[@Dawn-d8y]

Great video Alan hope everyone is doing ok

[@kermitsghost]

Thank you very much, everyone is doing well thanks for asking, hope you are well too, enjoy the rest of your week, take care👍😃👍

I just bought Ghostbusters frozen Empire 4K today from Amazon

[@kermitsghost]

Is that a blind buy Mike or did you stream it? 🧐 I thoroughly enjoyed it 👍 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@laurasands8322]

Great video as per usual Alan , I have dvds of Catacombs , the man who haunted himself and Jigsaw , Jigsaw is a great British crime thriller , for me its up there with The Long Arm ,Gideon of Scotland Yard and Obsession .Jigsaw is great its got CJ and Doc Morrisey from The Fall and Rise Of Reginald Perrin.

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Laura, cool you have those movies, I’ve watched Jigsaw a couple of times and love it, especially as it was filmed around the corner from where I live 🧐 enjoy the rest of your week Laura, take care👍😃👍

[@ttspencert]

Digging for lost treasure! haha 😅 👍

[@kermitsghost]

Hope it pays off for Brighton council, bless them, they’re been searching for years 😆 take care mate👍😃👍

[@bushmanblu426]

Hi Alan, i will be going for the Blu-ray release of that Ghostbusters double pack and i have been picking up more Blu-ray's than 4Ks now, getting a bit annoyed that a 4K disc is £10 more, The Uninvited and The Unseen look like great films, i do like my black and white horror. Also thinking about getting The bells go down that was in your HMV part, looks like a good film. thanks mate.

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Mark, yeah they are a lot more expensive, one of the reasons I would go down the 4K route 🤑 the Uninvited/Unseen set is a thing of beauty 👌 I’m loving these older movies and yeah The Bells Go Down peaked my interest too, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@lostnthenoise]

Another great video... Those imprint films look nice. I am not much for horror, but older horror isn't so bad. More focused on plot than most of the newer ones which all seem about the same. Have a good week and I hope you can find some of that treasure yourself!

[@kermitsghost]

Cheers Erik, yeah I’m the same mate, I’m not into modern horror films but the older ones are a lot of fun, they rely on story, atmosphere and characters over shock and awe. Have a great week too mate, now I’m off to find my shovel 😁 take care mate👍😃👍

[@movieedge7370]

That’s a lot of releases that came out this week in the UK 😮

[@kermitsghost]

Tell me about it Mike, the voice over part takes forever to get through 😬

[@BristolianDave]

Great video as always mate. One thing I’m noticing and love to see is the amount of foreign cinema getting released over here now. There is so much good stuff.

[@kermitsghost]

Your not wrong Dave, there’s so much variety out at the moment, something for everyone, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@slay3rreviews]

Fantastic video as always Alan My god there’s a lot out today My Wallet’s gonna hate me 😂 Definitely gonna be Picking Up Godzilla & Ghostbusters no surprise there! Just wanted to take the time to say Thank you for always brightening up my days every week with a new Blu ray hunt. Really gives me a lot of inspiration on what to buy Keep up the fantastic work Take care love to the family

[@kermitsghost]

Awe thanks Evander, that means a lot to me mate 🙏 goodness, you’re right, there was so much out today, so a lot of voiceover work 😬 cool you picked up Ghostbusters and Godzilla X Kong too, take care mate 👍😃👍

[@kermitsghost]

Nice one, it’s cool hearing what other people are interested in and picking up. 👌 enjoy your purchases mate, take care 👍😃👍

[@JaredGriffiths2000]

What I find interesting is that Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is actually the first Ghostbusters movie that isn't about starting or re-starting the Ghostbusters team. I'm still waiting for Godzilla Minus One to come to blu ray in the UK, but I'm glad it's Netflix now.

[@kermitsghost]

Good observation Jared, yeah I’m sure Minus One will get a physical release soon, cheers mate, take care 👍😃👍

[@lesisking1]

Another great K Day as always mate...... I don't think I av heard of any of those imprint movies......as you know i got godzilla x Kong steelbook av a great week Alan take care mate 👍

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Les, yes, cool you got the Steelbook, nice addition to the collection 👌 oddly enough most of the Imprint titles were made in the UK 😮 it’s great Imprint are putting them out, take care mate👍😃👍

[@neilsmoviechannel3199]

Hi Alan. Nice to see you show Jigsaw in HMV, I quite like that one and the locations intrigued me so I’m glad to hear you are going to show some of the locations. As I recall (it’s been a while), I liked seeing the area around the house where the murder takes place, which I think is in Peacehaven. Not sure if that’s a place I’ve been to or not on journeys between Brighton and Eastbourne….Nice Imprint editions. I have a Criterion edition of The Uninvited, a good one. All the best

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Neil, I’ve now watched Jigsaw twice and love it, I’ve located most of the area they shot in including the house at the start. You are spot on, it’s on the boundary of Peacehaven, it’s a little set back off the main coast road (I was there this morning filming it 🧐) cool that The Uninvited was picked up by Criterion 👌 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@neilsmoviechannel3199]

@@kermitsghost Cool, I look forward to your location video. I feel as though I must have been at least close to that Peacehaven location even if not right through it.

[@kennyjones6369]

Another terrific video Alan, I have the new Kong X Godzilla movie coming so excited to watch that. Awesome reviews you picked up the Roger Moore movie sounds so good. Take care and stay safe.

[@kermitsghost]

Thanks Kenny, hope your film has arrived safe and sound mate (and that you enjoy it too) The Man Who Haunted Himself is a very good watch 👌 enjoy the rest of your week mate, take care👍😃👍

[@samglendenning9884]

Great video Alan 😀🍿🎸🎶 I really need to catch up with King Kong movies; been so out of the loop with this and the Godzilla films 😱🦖 I need to revisit the 1933 ‘King Kong’ as I thought it was excellent; watched ‘Mighty Joe Young’ for the first time last week and thought it was pretty fantastic 😀 I will have to check out ‘Jigsaw’; always down for checking out more British films and I thought ‘The Uninvited’ was solid mate; I got the Criterion edition of it 😊👍

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Sammy, it’s a good time to catch up on the Kong films with the new one out, you can’t beat the 1933 original, it’s a solid gold classic 👌 yeah Might Joe Young is a fun flick 👍 yeah if you like older British movies, then Jigsaw is a decent police procedure movie 🧐 cheers mate, take care 👍😃👍

[@blujustin4175]

HMV also have an exclusive 4K steelbook for *Godzilla x Kong* I'll have to check with my Argentinian 'internet friend' about *Close Your Eyes* which sounds like her thing. *Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for My Retirement* I was expecting to be here by now; HMV letting me down delivery wise for once. *Lower Decks iV* is on 'the list' and isn't it great we've almost caught up with the US releases which were coming out massively ahead of ours but *IV* only beat us by 2 months. Can't wait to see your *Jigsaw* movie locations (I hope to have a copy by then too!) I definitely plan to pick up *Creation of the Gods: Part 1* and, probably on to 2 and 3 when they arrive, glad they sound sensibly spaced out in release (not too long, not too short). Seriously considering *The Moon* and, as a bonus, the steelbook is nice IMO. I know you're not a 'martial arts fan' (probably for the best, you like enough genres to need continuing shelf building!) but *Fist of Legend* is one I'll probably grab at a decent price, though I dare say it'll be slipless by then. *Evil Dead Trap* is something I'm really not sure about but is also the sort of 'different/foreign take' on the slasher genre that I might get to push me out of my comfort zone... *Sympathy for the Underdog* _does_ sound like me and I have quite a few of these recent _Radiance Films_ releases which are a little less mainstream (at least in the UK), with many having subs only, like this one, if I read that cover correctly. I remember from ages ago, _very_ vaguely, watching *The Man Who Haunted Himself* and didin't appreciate it fully at a young age (that long ago!) so would love to see it again. I know what you mean about the little amount of traffic; even much later in *The Professionals* TV series I am always shocked by the cars racing down empty streets (and not just when they're closed off, any stock footage reveals parking spaces galore!). *Catacombs* sounds interesting and I will try to get it, though I do find _Imprint_ stuff difficult and/or expensive to get even though they often sound great Another fab video; I could have listened for hours more but you were probably right to curtail for a week when you don't have so much... I can make a few titles go on for ages and I'm never sure if I lose too many viewers that way just because I go at my natural pace... Looking forward to your next video as the one _after_ my birthday so I may have cash burning a hole! 🤑

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Justin, unfortunately HMV didn’t have either the Ghostbusters or the Godzilla X Kong steelbooks in store today 😬 sorry to hear your still waiting for your order to arrive 🧐 yeah regarding Lower Decks, I thought we were going to have to wait another year for that 😮 I’ve started filming the Jigsaw location shots…. The Moon does sound pretty good, it’s peaked my interest 🤔 regarding The Evil Dead Trap, sometimes we need pushing out of our comfort zone 👀 I’m sure you would get more from The Man Who Haunted Himself this time around, the traffic was an eye opener, I do remember the traffic in the 80’s was a lot different (when I started to drive) the Imprint films can be pricey with postage but on the plus side, they do a great job with the releases…. It was more a case of I’d talked way too match and didn’t want to put people off watching 😆 but thank you for the kind words, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍

[@garytilford6503]

Great video mate. I watched The Man Who Haunted Himself years ago and really enjoyed it. Roger Moore's acting is pretty good in this and I feel that this film is one of those hidden gems. I take it you are a fan of Gary Numan/ Tubeway Army then? We Have A Technical.

[@kermitsghost]

Hi Gary, yes absolutely, The Man Who Haunted Himself is a solid movie, Roger did a great job with the role 👌 I’ve been a fan of Gary Numan and Tubeway Army since the beginning 🧐 I’ve been to see him live many many times and I’m assuming that because you knew the snippet was from We Have a Technical, you are a fan too? Nice one mate, take care👍😃👍

@@kermitsghost with me it’s very much same shit different day. I really enjoyed Frozen Empire probably a lot more than most people, I definitely enjoyed it a lot more than what I thought I was going to. The new Godzilla/Kong movie I really enjoyed the shit out of that, ultimately I just had a fun time with it, my favourite scene is when Godzilla decides to suplex Kong, I kind of had to do a double take on that one because I wasn’t sure what I was seeing if it was what I was actually seeing. Did I just see what I thought I saw? 😜 Enjoy inside out 2 when you go and see this afternoon. Anyway, I’m glad to hear that you and yours are okay your end.

[@kermitsghost]

Glad you enjoyed Ghostbusters Frozen Empire, I did too, Godzilla was just OK for me, I may feel differently on repeated viewings, I can even remember the scene you mentioned 😬 either I’m getting old or I wasn’t paying full attention 🧐 Thanks Eva 👍

@@kermitsghost it was just at that point my pro wrestling fan brain kicked in and I was like WTF, what did I just see? 🤣 It was very similar to the scene with Wesley Snipes in Blade two which ironically both movies are WB movies.
