In other news, I located a great copy of Fright Night Part 2, where I can actually see everything clearly. Unlike every other copy, it’s not pitch black and murky. It’s a rip from a fantastic HD airing on a now defunct channel, from what I can determine. I’ve also located a copy of DVD Delirium Volume 1: Redux, so that should be here by about mid-January. So I can mark those two off my list to track down.

Something that wasn’t on my list, but was nice to stumble across--finally locating a copy of The Giant of Thunder Mountain. Having now watched it for the first time since 1990, I can’t see why I would have liked it even vaguely back then, since I loathed uplifting movies. Dreadfully dull, but at least I've watched it as an adult.
