Great, David !

Posted by Mark Todd (Member # 96) on January 08, 2019, 04:49 PM:

You could almost sell those just on the strength of how nice the box design/artwork is.

Hope the two films go well, as be superb for the super 8 side of things.

I think JP could sell in droves by modern standards if you will.

Looking forward to seeing the box design for that.

Best Mark.

Wow.... Reminds me of Walton digests box art!

David - I'm intrigued by the thought of a 200' of 'Curse of the Werewolf', which is without doubt one of the finest Hammer films to have never appeared in any form on Super 8. However, I'd like to check if the box artwork reference to b/w is correct, as I'd imagine that I'm not the only one who would be put off by the loss of colour.

UPDATE - 2 / 05 / 2019

CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF digest is currently in negative production at this time .

Thanks for your interest AND patience !!

HAPPY COLLECTING !!

I am doing a search and cannot find any reference to the pre-order of this. Somehow I have missed this but want to jump on board. How do we place an order? Thank you.

Alan, you can find for more details in the thread "Ohio Film Collector Exchange Importing TWO NEW SUPER 8MM DIGESTS In Early 2019 !" in the 8mm films sale section.

Thank you Dominique:)

Posted by Joe Caruso (Member # 11) on February 06, 2019, 09:34 AM:

200' eh? I'd like one, if only to add another for the Shorty box collection - thanks

Posted by Pierre Mdihi (Member # 6808) on February 06, 2019, 10:16 AM:

Very nice project. The box is very nice.

Posted by Douglas Warren (Member # 1047) on February 06, 2019, 05:25 PM:

Very cool! A new Super-8 horror digest and a great subject at that. If I may ask,why was the 200' length chosen? My first thought was in the style of the Castle Films titles.

Posted by David Baker (Member # 3259) on February 06, 2019, 09:27 PM:

Thank you Douglas

The only thing I can tell you is when you see it you'll answer all your own questions !!

[Cool]

David,

Thank you for the update. Film collecting involves a ton of patience....and optimism!

Doug

Posted by Brian Stearns (Member # 3792) on June 18, 2019, 04:58 AM:

Agreed, demonstrated everytime your waiting for USPS to deliver your film.

It's all Darius Biederbeck's fault

Posted by Osi Osgood (Member # 424) on June 25, 2019, 11:01 AM:

Thanks for the update David.

I have a hankering for producing another digest, but it does take SO LONG these days to get this kind of thing done, even if you have all the money invested already.

Another real plus is the marketing of the product, like you're boxes for you're Werewolf digest! There used to be a day when all you could do was "XEROX" images, (even with Derann at times) and boxes could leave a lot to be desired. These days, we can do a real good box, right there "in house".

Posted by Larry Arpin (Member # 744) on October 03, 2019, 07:16 PM:

Any updates on the Jurassic Park digest?

Posted by David Baker (Member # 3259) on October 03, 2019, 07:21 PM:

Currently Andec's equipment is down for major repairs ( having to do with print production ) and it may be Thanksgiving / Christmas before the finished product goes out .
Stay tuned....and patient dear film fans !!
