I know these are pricey, but these new Hammers are also some of the best curated releases I’ve ever seen. The bonus materials on, both, X…The Unknown! and The Abominable Snowman (two personal favourites) are simply astonishing, and the passion the participants have for the material, and the care that Hammer has put into finding archival or producing new material puts most of the major labels to shame.

I anxiously await the more affordable standard editions of the first two Quatermass pictures they’ve released so far, and hope they tackle the third, The Devil Rides Out, and Hell Is A City soon!

Will there be "standard" editions?

That was a hope more than anything else.

I would expect there to be standard editions. I think the only big box to sell out so far, apart from the Red Dracula set, has been Captain Kronos. I do get the limited editions, the books alone are worth the extra money.

Lady In The Fog is minor but quite fun, one of several “Yank gets involved in a murder mystery” they did. Again, the extras look like the main attraction here.
