Hey, Ken, don’t feel bad about that Exorcist bible set. I ordered it too, and as expensive as it is it’s also cool as hell! I also have the Psycho set and It Follows, both awesome as well!!
I was fortunate enough to get the Quartet of Torment, Toxic Avenger set and then the Bruce Lee Golden Harvest set (that one is mostly 4K... not Enter The Dragon, which is fine) from Grindhouse. Love all those sets.
Whether purchased or not you should have included the Bruce Lee box set from Arrow that was released last year. Definitely one of the best sets of the year without a doubt.
Didn't buy it and there were a lot of issues surrounding the delivery of that set. Nothing against the set, but it wasn't a positive experience for a lot of collectors.
Didn’t pick up many last year in 4K except the child’s play collection from arrow and the Texas chainsaw massacre in 4K from second sight and recently dirty dancing in 4K
The arrow video video store box set was definitely a highlight release last year that and the dragon slayer steel book …. Awesome video keep up the great work
Sure, the Arrow Bruce Lee box set must be included in the top best box sets of 2023. Radiance Cosa Nostra box set is good also. Exorcist bible was too expensive for me but I got the special collectors edition and I am happy. Second Sight Martin and TCM are remarkable!Freaks is by far one of the best Criterion box sets. Pasolini 101 is good but the pull out of the discs is a nightmare!!!
I have The Exorcist bible edition number 0842, definitely my favourite boxset of 2023. I also got the DUEL boxset 1527 of 3000 which is my second favourite of the year. The only other one I picked up on this list is It Follows which is another great release.
I didn't order foreign boxed sets but definitely they're the best. I still haven't received my Toxic Avenger 4K boxed set but it's definitely up there. My favorite boxed set of 2023 is The Sensual World Of Black Emmanuelle Blu-ray set. Anyway good boxed set collection and cool video Ken!👉🙂👈
Checking in with #s: 9, 5, 4, & 2 plus honorable mention #3. Really like that Bible Exorcist set you picked up and some of your mentions as well. Keep it up!
Great list my brother! Probably half of yours are in my top 10 too. I guess I personally considered box sets as multiple films in one set. But I see where you’re coming from too. I have ALL the VSU’s and God…I LOVE EM! haven’t watched Sidekicks yet, but knowing how nostalgic it is for you, I get why it’s on your list. I have regret over The Exorcist - I ended up accidentally ordering the UK Steelbook set instead of the Bible set… moved too quickly when the announcement came out and when it showed up….well - you know 😒
I went into serious debt for the Psycho set when I owed money but I NEEDED it, Empire Of Screams was special as was the Hellraiser set but I do wish it had separate cases. Those three sets are the best work Arrow ever did.
For me the Lukas Moodysson Arrow box set, Pasolini 101 from Criterion, Psycho 1-4 again from Arrow, Texas Chainsaw Massacre Second Sight and of course Quartet of Torment set again from Arrow and shout out to Shout for their great JFK set. Packaging Criterions Thelma &Louise 4k
Great list - I have most of the editions in your vlog. Particular favourites are Psycho box set. Second sight version of it follows but also other second sight box sets such TCSM, Video-store box set Hell raiser box set House of 1000 corpses I hope that 2024 is another great year for physical media. Thanks.
ken, happy new year! I have spent A LOT -like thousand dollars or so- between end of october and now. Must be like 100 movies i bought. Mostly from Best Buy, with rest from amazon and walmart and couple from ebay. Let our women do our monthly amount spent. LOL
Sidekicks was a movie I watched a hundred times growing up. Didn't watch the karate kid until I was at least 30. So freaking glad Sidekicks got the treatment it deserved.
@@midlevelmedia Night of the Living Dead 1968 was political. Some horror films have substance. Halloween Kills illustrates the dangers of mob mentality. I don’t find anything wrong with that. Maybe it will force those Republican losers who perpetrated the terrorist attack against our country on January 6 to confront themselves and reflect on their behavior. But in any event, who really cares about that if you are just watching it for the slasher movie carnage, which there is plenty of?
I was super excited for the Sidekicks release too. Had been waiting for a DVD or Blu-ray for years but Vinegar Syndrome more than made up for it. Otherwise, the Empire of Screams box was excellent and it still ended up being cheaper than how much some sellers were asking for just the old OOP Robot Jox Blu-ray by itself; the Sleepy Hollow Steelbook didn't have the best artwork on the outside but got major points for having an actual book inside of it along with a stunning transfer of the film; while the Bruce Lee at Golden Harvest box was easily my favourite boxset of the year.
