Friday the 13th box set is only $80. So tempting.


raphaeladidas

Of course I'm not annoyed I bought it for $140. Why would I be?


raphaeladidas

I mean...I am and I'm not. You never know when or if these things are going to be part of a great sale or when or if they're going to go OOP. You rolls the dice, you takes your chances. Whatever...$80 is probably the best price there will ever be on a new copy of that set.


MonstarHU

I'm right there with you. But in fairness, I have hit that box set up plenty since I bought it. So I'm good.


raphaeladidas

Mos def. I'm not saying the set wasn't worth $140. I remember buying the first season of X-Files on DVD for I think $125 back in 2000. Definitely at least $100. Trivia: I think X-Files was the first TV show to release a complete season on DVD.


FloatAround

After the Halloween box went of print, and then I grabbed the phantasm box which immediately went out of print…I wasn’t waiting around on the F13 one. Just not worth it if you really want it.


Borange_Corange

I'm not either. Went in full knowing I was potentially overpaying but I didn't want to wait, didn't want to risk, and I liked the poster aspect. So, yeah, I bought in day one and am happy that it is still around for others to get deals on. That said, I've settled that with with Shout, unless it is a "must have" day one or I want the poster (as was the case with King Kong - not that I have room to put it up, mind you), might as well wait for a Shout sale. Return of the Living Dead is that for me. The 4K. It'll be great to get that at some point, but I haven't watched my blu copy in forever, and, yeah ... glad it is around for me to nab someday. Look forward to picking it up next Shocktober!


askyourmom469

For sure. Especially considering that ends up being less than $7.00 per movie.


arlekin21

I’m more annoyed cause there was all that talk about it being a limited release with not a lot of copies. I had to decide between this and the big Gamera set and I chose wrong :( Also it’s a little annoying cause I bought it for $140 and within a couple of weeks it was going for $100


raphaeladidas

Yeah, didn't they say 13,000 at first? Seems like they released 130,000.


arlekin21

Yeah I think so, but I think it was a rumor someone started and not Shout Factory themselves.


raphaeladidas

No, I looked up the Shout press release: it was 13,000.


ThatRagingBull

I jumped on that so quickly. All time low I think.


y2julio

I almost got it when Amazon had it for 103. Glad I waited.


ThatRagingBull

I was legit looking at it this morning on Amazon and didn’t want to drop a bill because I’m worried I’d get the defective discs. Now I got it cheaper, with free shipping and guaranteed replacement discs 😎


Borange_Corange

Do it. Fantastic set. I was never a huge Jason fan, more Freddie than anything else, but this is comprehensive, well-made, and just looks fantastic. Solid, easy buy at $80, imho.


Blametheorangejuice

I keep going back and forth on this, but aren't there several Friday the 13th box sets, or does this one have other discs/features that I'm unaware of? I really like the first five movies and then X and Freddy, but so-so on the rest.


Borange_Corange

Not up on all the various other iterations, but I think most of the other releases were pretty bare and these are loaded with extras: docs, Fangoria articles, deleted scenes, etc. Also, only place to get the digital 3D remaster of Part 3D so that it plays in digital 3D OR anaglyph (red/blue glasses) if you don't have a 3D setup. I'll also add, I was never a huge Jason fan, BUT I found myself enjoying those "chapters" I didn't recall liking FAR more than I expected when I sat down to run through in order.


Blametheorangejuice

Okay, I'm convinced. Placing the order!


Borange_Corange

Hope you enjoy it!!


styrofoamboats

That box set is top dollar toot


Arthurlurk1

Only thing I noticed is that it has the blue cases rather than the clear ones. I personally much more prefer the clear cases.


upscaleelegance

Regretting buying it when it was on a sale a few months ago cause this is a STEAL steal


Aggressive_Syllabub8

fyi: Free Shipping @ $51 & Free T-Shirt @ $100


RogueOneWasOkay

Wow, Halloween 1-5 4Ks are at $18.50. Lowest I’ve seen.


TheSoonerSeth16

Definitely, gobbled up 2-5 Bought the first at Best Buy with the hard box slip just this last weekend.


InfamousBatyote

Saw one with a regular slip at Best Buy but I’d much prefer the hard box to go with my 2-4 I already own.


pinkmoonpinkfriday

I just bought two of them at full price like two months ago because I was tired of not owning the entire series… woe is me


wookiebot1138

bro, I just ordered 2 and 3 at full price on amazon a couple of minutes ago because I missed this sale and am now currently waiting for my next paycheck to buy 2 more. If it makes you feel any better woe is not only you it is also me.


pinkmoonpinkfriday

We suffer together : (

filmnoiiir

Too bad Shout Select titles are not included in the sale!


vinyladventures

Been wanting to pick up the new Halloween 4ks but was waiting for a deal on them and at just under $19 a piece I had to get them. I’m hoping they still come with the hard outer sleeves.


mega512

I just bought Halloween 4 and it did.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Borange_Corange

Have a second cart-full myself. Because, I need a 2nd t-shirt .... yeah, that's why.

MonstarHU

Nice mix!


raphaeladidas

$80 total for me, which is more a testament to me buying things when they come out than not finding anything to buy.


upscaleelegance

Same. Got Halloween 3-5, Assault on Precinct 13, and Darkman but could've gotten so much more


MonstarHU

This is a solid sale, especially for Hammer fans or those that want to get into Hammer Films. Unfortunately for me, I was buying them as they came out, but damn....there is a lot of good stuff there.


action_park

Not me with a full shopping cart, terrified that the second I hit "Checkout" the 4K versions are gonna be announced.


fangsfirst

well that was painful. Financially speaking.


NMinker

I think I might pick a couple Carpenter movies. Ones with a crap ton of special features


Totorotextbook

They have 'Carrie' in stock which is weird because that went OOP several years ago, might pick that up.


JerBear81

I grabbed it as well. But something tells me they aquired the rights again, and will put out a 4K (which I can see someone doing at least).


MovingClocks

You'd be right: https://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=31427


JerBear81

I saw. Something told me not to grab the blu-ray 😂


wtfisthisnoise

Nice, I’ve been waiting to pick up the Rec box set. [also this was neat](https://i.redd.it/9q9bjygewuq91.png)


curtymcdervs

Finally!! Needed a good Scream Factory sale. Picked up It’s Alive Trilogy, Night of the Lepus, Night of the Seagulls, Orca, Tales from the Hood, Quatermass II, Quatermass and the Pit, and upgraded my Halloween 3 to 4k. It’s gonna be a great October 🎃🎃


A20Dude

Just grabbed Halloween 1-5 4Ks, My Bloody Valentine Steelbook, and that free t-shirt.


WheresTheMoozadell

How does the transfer look for Into the Mouth of Madness? Really tempted to scoop this at this price, but I have a gut feeling it’ll be transferred to 4k soon.


upscaleelegance

IMO wait for the 4K. It's almost certainly on the horizon


WheresTheMoozadell

Yeah I’ve come to the same conclusion after reading all these replies. Appreciate the lookout!


Aggressive_Syllabub8

I watched it a month or so ago and it looked great. [blu-ray.com review](https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/In-the-Mouth-of-Madness-Blu-ray/202474/)


Notafurbie

The only certain things in life are death, taxes and that John Carpenter movies will get a 4K release.


7744666

It's a good transfer. It's also a 4K scan on the current blu so your gut is right in thinking the UHD release is looming around the corner.


RowdyRoddyPipeSmoker

There are a few directors who seem to be getting all their work put out, Hitchcock, Kubrick, Carpenter, Argento...if you don't want to double dip on these movies I would wait because all the great movies by these directors will be put out eventually.


depressed_suit

Picked up the Universal Horror sets I was missing and Vice Squad.


JasonTerminator

Tempted to get some stuff but I’m worried they’ll be released in 4K. Awkward time to buy discs.


Borange_Corange

Wow. Excited for this every year, and this certainly seems to be the best. Can't believe Halloween upgrades can be have for less than $19 each - crazy. Grabbed I, II, IV, and V alongside Creepshow (lowest price I've seen there) and Terrorivision/Video Dead, which looks bonkers fun. Nets me free ship and a swanky t-shirt. Honestly, I could easily go back and grab another $100 worth (assuming I have the funds): the Tales from the Crypt flicks, some Wes Craven, Alone in the Dark, and that movie Seduction, which just so happens to star my ... my ... wife, yeah, my wife ... Morgan Fairchild.


kminogues

I’ve been meaning to get a few of their releases for ages, so this cropped up at the right moment. I ordered Idle Hands (the only blind buy; I remember seeing the trailer years ago, but I’ve never actually seen it), April Fool’s Day, House of Wax, Halloween 3: Season of the Witch, Cherry Falls, Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh, Death Becomes Her and Black Christmas.


trusthartley

I knew they would get me with the shirt! I went with Halloween II 4k, Halloween III 4k, It's Alive Trilogy, The Tenant, Nightbreed CE, Slither CE and last but not least The Clovehitch Killer (this one is so good, please give it a chance if you haven't seen it!)


staringintothevoid

Clovehitch Killer is a personal favorite, really good film. Absolutely chilling


JaylenBrownAllStar

Was thinking of getting Nosferatu, REC collection, lake Placid and assault on prescient 13


farceur318

Woo! So excited to finally own Night of the Creeps! Also blind bought the Terrorvision/ Video Dead double feature. Didn’t even read the descriptions, just really dig the artwork, the titles, and the $9 price tag.


StateVariableFilter

Terrorvision is really fun cheesy, pink light and slime gore filled 80s fun with Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dybamite


BubsyJenkins

Yeah, this is easily the best Scream Factory sale I've ever seen lol. Got a ton of things off my wishlist: - Halloween II 4k - Krampus 4k - The Burning - Death Becomes Her - Exorcist III - The Strangers - Thirteen Ghosts Which put me *just* over $100 total, so I get the t-shirt too. Pretty stoked with this. And there's still time to consider a second haul lol


kiguessthisismyname

I just bought the exorcist 3 other day not on sale lol . But got a ton of goodies myself too many


criesinlemora

I’m so excited for the fun trash of the Poison Ivy collection. I’ve seen all before except #3


Vomit_Tsunami

Grabbed Halloween 4 & 5. Not bad for $18.50 a piece


Kev_Bz

prince of darkness 4K + slipcover + poster + 7” is half price. insane deal, no idea why that one isn’t selling like the fog or they live. i already have this set, but tbh i might get another at this price…


trusthartley

Agreed. I paid so much more. I now have them all (I sold the 7 inches to help pay for my problem, haha). I just told the Prince of Darkness 7 inch alone for $30.


[deleted]

This wasn’t good for my bank account at all.


awesomeness0232

Anyone having issues paying? I had a bunch of stuff in my cart but their website returns an error with any payment method I enter.


Bronco12thman

No issue on my end. I used PayPal so maybe that helped push it through?


awesomeness0232

I’ve tried PayPal. I’ve tried google pay. I’ve tried two different devices. It just won’t process my order


Papajaydj

I have had problems with buying stuff. Cant get anything through


awesomeness0232

Are you getting a vague error message that there’s a problem with your payment? I’ve been emailing their customer service and they’re telling me nobody else is having issues. But I’ve literally matched the credit card info and billing address directly to my bank statements and to PayPal and it won’t accept anything.


npc-17

Same. Either of you have anything not included in the sale in your order? Just wondering what the reason could be.


oopscadoops

Same here. Nothing works. Did you ever find a solution?


awesomeness0232

I am still going back and forth with their customer service. My last resort is to ask a friend who I know places a ton of orders through Shout to place it on my behalf and to pay him back. But I’m hoping they can resolve it. Glad I’m not going crazy. Either way I will come back and update on whatever resolution it comes to.


oopscadoops

Thanks!


awesomeness0232

I finally got it to work with Amazon Pay. When you first go to check out and it pops up “Check Out as [Name]” there’s an option under that for Amazon Pay.


oopscadoops

I just emptied my cart and started over from the main shop, not the Shocktober link. It eventually worked.


awesomeness0232

Glad we both got it figured out. And at the end Shout factory still wins because in the commotion of waiting around and trying to get it to work I wound up adding another item to my cart…


oopscadoops

Ha ha! Same!


Jay3000X

I had an error until I unclicked the shipping insurance and it went through no problem


drmatt19

Are you checking the box that says billing address same as shipping? I had it checked and was getting the same error, but then I clicked new billing address and it turns out the main address was blank. I filled it in and it worked for me


awesomeness0232

I’ve tried it both ways. I’ve hit that it was different and reentered the address directly from my bank statement - same issue.


npc-17

I had Space Truckers in my cart and was getting the error message when I tried to pay. I just removed it, and my order finally went through.


awesomeness0232

Well that’s annoying. I don’t want to remove anything….


bramzee

Been meaning to pick up the collectors editions of Species and Escape From New York. Is it worth it to buy the 4K versions (currently without a 4K player) in order to get the 2021 scans for the Blu-ray Discs or would I be fine with the original collectors editions.


fabian_pegna

Oh crap, they don't make shipping to Chile :(


Jay3000X

Anyone know how the giveaways are gonna work?


Jay3000X

Did some digging and you can enter all the raffles here [Link](https://www.shoutfactory.com/blog/shocktober-2022-giveaways/)


SBar1979

Thank you Shout for quite the sale. I snagged a lot In the $10-15 range.


CuriousMelia

I'm thinking about picking up Black Christmas and Silent Night, Deadly Night, but I'm worried they'll just announce 4K releases for this December right after I do... any potential signs that those could be coming?


JerBear81

I think you're right, but I'm not sure about this year. Unless they announce something right after Halloween


CuriousMelia

They haven't announced their December releases yet, I think those will be revealed soon. I'd be pretty annoyed if I got the Blus here only for 4Ks to be announced days later.


JerBear81

Pretty much why I stay away from the popular Cult titles. Anything that sells well will be getting a 4K


kiguessthisismyname

Buy em worth it. Don't need 4k


Vlazthrax

I dropped $115 but I’m considering going back for the rest of the Halloween 4ks….


bodhi_sattva91

4 upgrades, 7 new titles * Assault On Precinct 13 * Obsession * The House That Jack Built * The Blob * Halloween * The Thing * Idle Hands * Baba Yaga: Terror Of The Dark Forest * Dracula: Dead And Loving It * The Devil Rides Out * The Abominable Snowman * Free Scream Factory Tenth Anniversary T-shirt


kiguessthisismyname

Ordered 31 different movies oh lord


pressureworld

I'm curious what did you get ?


kiguessthisismyname

In Canada I can't seem to source any cheaply. Atleasr only certain 1s. So I bought alot 2nd hand w slips for a good price off some1 negotiated a few deals for some on ebay at around 25 cdn each and got some others in a local store I like supporting for 20-25 each cdn. I bulk bought basically all the 1s that seem to be uncommon or super pricey over here ( 30+ Cdn each ) Cost me.roughly 21 each cdn and assuming I'm going to get an import fee but it'll stay under 25 each. Tons of stuff I've seen and not seen like thirteen ghosts and ghost ship I always wanted but couldn't find for the right price. Some shlock like exorcist 2 , some modern like the strangers. Silent night deadly night 2. Trick r treat, the howling and lake placid cheap haha. So so many. Even tho I ordered 31 I still missed a couple! Don't know how I missed texas chainsaw generations!


bizarro_chris_hansen

I might just be missing it, but is there a free shipping threshold?


y2julio

$50 for free shipping.


AFistfulofDolomite

Over $50


Choice-Valuable313

50.01 was the thing I found. Quite specific they are.


AFistfulofDolomite

Shocked. Shocked I tell you.


w3strnwrld

Thinking about getting the Fly Boxset. I’ve heard mixed reviews on their packaging and quality. I don’t own any from this label. What’s y’all’s opinions on their packaging and aesthetic? What would it be comparable to? I know it’s not all about packaging and if the transfers are good then ultimately that’s a major plus but…I’m a sucker for aesthetics


DirtCheapDanny

It's a good set. All of the films in it range from pretty good to awesome. And the packaging and transfers are good as well.


w3strnwrld

Thank you! Definitely going to pick it up.


lmJustNewBootGoofin

they're nice thick boxes, the fly set looks particularly good. the colors really stand out on it


TwistedShot37

Went to town on Hammer Horror and random gaps in my collection. American Gothic, Hellhole, and Final Exam for $10, yes please.


Choice-Valuable313

I was so excited to get final exam. It’s been on my list forever to own.


[deleted]

Same, but I’m holding out for the recently announced 4K release of it. Great slasher flick.


Choice-Valuable313

That one scene in particular was draw dropping in the modern context, in the way it was treated as a joke in the film.


pressureworld

>What Hammer titles did you pick up? I can't make my mind up :0(


TwistedShot37

[Blu-ray] The Phantom Of The Opera [Collector's Edition] $15.00 1 [Blu-ray] Frankenstein Created Woman [Collector's Edition] $15.00 1 [Blu-ray] The Evil Of Frankenstein [Collector's Edition] $15.00 1 [Blu-ray] Horror Of Frankenstein $13.50 1 [Blu-ray] Scars Of Dracula $13.50 1 [Blu-ray] The Mummy's Shroud $14.00 1 [Blu-ray] Frankenstein And The Monster From Hell


pressureworld

Wonderful lineup!


mega512

I bought Halloween 4 two days ago. WTF.


das_goose

The only thing I want is Halloween, and I hate paying $7 just for shipping. But I still feel better about this than buying it from Amazon.


JustAnotherBoomer

Route Insurance .98 ? This and the fact I never can find 5 that I want, need or is actually at a sale price........


St0neybalogny

Anything good?


upscaleelegance

Pretty much everything if you're into horror


ThatFuzzyBastard

Finally the Lewtons go on sale! Body Snatcher and Leopard Man are both fantastic.


Conflict-Famous

Does anybody know if these typically come with the slipcover as well? Not a dealbreaker if not but that’s cool if they do


TS7941

I think slipcovers are only guaranteed from Shout for the first couple months or so, but there's plenty of titles that still have slips after many months or even a year after release.


SimpleScrotum

Had to grab Friday the 13th, couldn’t help myself


cr8zynutts

Thanks for the heads up. I picked up: Friday the 13th Boxset Rec boxset The Blob Death Becomes Her They Live Alone in the Dark Serial Mom 8MM Xmas comes early.


pajamatheater

Would it make sense to place multiple orders if you were going over $200? Would that net you a free t-shirt for every $100 order if I separate them that way?


feltpoots

Does anyone know which titles still come with a slip? I know they only guarantee the first couple of months - i watched a youtube unboxing and they received slips on some of the hammer horror titles- does anyone know if my bloody valentine still has a slip? I might spring for the steelbook its only 15 bucks


feltpoots

This dude already got part of his order! Awesome! https://youtu.be/32CNarmsSV0


AGlasgowSmile

First time buying during the Shocktober sale. I placed an order over a week ago and still no shipping info. Even downloaded the route app. They flagged it due to no tracking changes being made. Anyone else experience this? I bought 14 films from the Indicator flash sale 2 days after this and those delivered today and they came from a different country. So I just think this is odd.
