Holy crap, I need a Blu-ray player just for this...  "Before the TV show of the same name came out in 1989, there was the Tales from the Crypt movie. Released in 1972, this British anthology horror film explored multiple matters of the macabre, from a Christmas Eve killer to a Chinese figurine that grants three wishes, and also featured the legendary Peter Cushing in one of its tales. A sequel to Tales from the Crypt, titled Vault of Horror, came out in 1973 and Scream Factory has announced plans to release both of these horror anthologies as a double feature Blu-ray later this year. Appearing on Blu-ray for the first time, the Tales from the Crypt/Vault of Horror double feature is set to be released sometime this fall. 1972’s TALES FROM THE CRYPT and 1973’s VAULT OF HORROR These two classic British anthology films will be a housed together as a double feature on blu-ray (both for the first time) and Vault will be presented in its uncut form." |

I wasn't even aware that Vault was cut. Not sure I'll notice much difference, but that alone makes it worth upgrading. Two very good anthologies.

I didn't know Vault was cut either. Really interested to see if I notice the difference too.

Just looked at my DVD set and both are rated PG. Guess I'll look at the run time and see how much longer this version is.

I'd get this just because I like throwing the money I don't have around.

Guess I better find someone to donate my DVD copy to once I pick this up.

I've never even fully seen either one of them, let alone own them.

Ok, this one has been delayed, but with good reason...
"Scream Factory delayed the Tales From The Crypt / Vault of Horror Blu-ray release, but it will be well worth the delay, as they confirmed that they’re prepping three different cuts of Vault of Horror:
“Scream Factory invites you to embrace the chills this December with two classic British horror films! On December 2nd, 2014, Scream Factory will release Tales from the Crypt and Vault of Horror on Blu-ray for the first time! Featuring the rare, uncut version of Vault of Horror, the two disc set includes three different cuts of the cult classic. The first disc will include Tales from the Crypt and Vault of Horror’s uncut widescreen presentation. The second disc will include Vault of Horror’s theatrical PG cut and a rare open-matte version of the BFI master. The release also includes an original trailer and an alternate opening scene for Vault of Horror."
So, now all versions of Vault will be included and anyone that picks up this set will have THE collection.
