New batch of German Blu-rays… (updated – June 10)

A new batch of German Blu-rays, released late last fall up to this month, are now or will be available. Here’s a quick list:

HERCULES AGAINST THE MONGOLS

One of my favourite PEPLUM was released late last year on Blu-ray. It stars Mark Forest, Jose Greci, Ken Clark and others. There are three different covers to choose from. The German audio is out of sync. No English audio. Nice print. The audio, well, the less said the better… HERCULES AGAINST THE BARBARIANS is set to be released soon with…English audio?

Mark Forest, Ken Clark, Howard Ross and Nadir Moretti.

 

TIGER OF THE SEVEN SEAS

Fun movie starring Gianna Maria Canale that’s on Blu-ray. Will have to buy this one.

79 AD: THE DESTRUCTION OF HERCULANEUM

Starring Brad Harris. A great looking film on DVD. I can’t wait to see this one in HD. Hopefully, there won’t be any cut. Available May 31 June 14.

FIRE OVER ROME

A usually rare PEPLUM gets the Blu-ray treatment. It stars Lang Jeffries. It’s  a great copy.

THE MASKED MAN AGAINST THE PIRATES

This colourful Swashbuckler starring George Hilton and Tony Kendall is now available on Blu-ray, with 2 different editions. The regular one is more expensive than the Mediabook with two discs. Hmm…

BY THE GODS! issue no 2…

The second issue of BY THE GODS! is ready and will be available soon, right after I get a physical copy and make corrections if there are any to be made. So, most likely next week or Monday, March 11.

Making this issue was really fun to make.

There are a few changes made to the magazine. It will be published 4 times a year, not 6 times, which I always thought was bit much. The third issue should be available in the middle of May. There are more pages than the first issue. This issue also starts the second volume, meaning the first issue was the first magazine and the first year of publication. A fresh start to 2024.

You can buy the first issue here.

BY THE GODS magazine issue 2 + new upcoming projects…

I’m currently working on issue 2 of BY THE GODS! magazine. I don’t know when it will be available. Hopefully before Christmas. If not, then early January. I’m pleased with the response of the first issue and it warrants a continuation. I don’t have any images to share yet (it’s too early…) but it will be spectacular.

With that being said, I’m also working on a couple of other projects. I’ve completed a novel and I’m still in the finishing process. The other project will be a visual feast. I’ve uploaded an image (below) but the image doesn’t really have to do with it but, well, yes it’s directly like the image.

Stay tuned!

Got the completed edition of BY THE GODS! magazine…

Last week, I received the final version of the first BY THE GODS! magazine edition, with barcode and all. I examined it and it’s all fine.

I hope followers of the blog have purchased it. It’s cool to have a magazine dedicated exclusively to the PEPLUM genre.
