Quoted from Diospinball:

Well... There are some movies that are good on that list.
While it might be one of hammer's worst Dracula films, I still quite enjoy the Satanic Rites of Dracula.

Any Hammer film is worth watching. The earlier ones are better, but even the later ones still have some sparkle in them.

As far as Manos and films of that caliber....have fun.

Quoted from Diospinball:

Just finished watching Teenagers from Outer Space.
Not bad actually. Sure, there were a lot of eye rolling and cheap segments. But I rather like how the death ray worked(yes, I know its disintergrator ray or something like that).
It did lag near the end. And lots of "stiff"... Acting...
still its nowhere near the worst film I have ever seen.
The Manster and The Wasp Woman are two of the next ones I queued up on prime. Still got a long way to go till I work my way through all of them.

The Wasp Woman isn't too bad, although it's hard to watch knowing what happened to Cabot.

Quoted from DVDA:

FYI. stern is bumping the price of Elvira HOH and BM66 by $500.00
need to decide on keeping my order or canceling. any advise would be helpful

I just canceled my order. Between that and the tax, it was too much for me. Hopefully I'll pick one up some day.

#6321 3 years ago
Quoted from BeeGee6533:

I’m leaning towards cancelling my order as well. Game seems cool but that’s just bad business. Not to mention playfield issues have not been resolved with stern. I have 2 recent NIB Sterns with playfield issues.

I am disappointed as hell, but what can you do. I am picking up another newer Stern for quite a bit lower than what they are selling new...so we'll see if that happens again. Let someone else take the hit.

Anyone know roughly how many they have made?

Is this truly the last run or is there potential for more? If they can still produce Star Wars years after.......

Question - why does everyone think that Stern does/did not like building the game? Does anyone know what the reason for why it's being discontinued if it is so popular?

Thanks.

#13806 1 year ago
Quoted from JakePG:

Could also be Elvira being an easy licensor to deal with and knowing they can always delay it and it will always be there for them to manufacture.

Which is why it's curious that Stern wouldn't want to keep pumping them out. I couldn't find anything concrete or official on the difficultly to build the game.

Some dealers have it advertised now. Why are some of you just waiting?

#14063 1 year ago
Quoted from PinStalker:

Non-refundable deposit, that's why.
When you have a deposit sitting at a dealer for over a year..... you're stuck. I really like my dealer, so I'm happy to give him business too.

The non refundable deposit is one thing alright..... but if you do bale out of it - I doubt he'll have trouble selling it at some point.

#14138 1 year ago
Quoted from andre060:

Anyone remember if Dennis Nordman did any interviews talking about the design of this game? I remember hearing it was mostly his design but that Stern tweaked it somewhat, but I'm having a hard time remembering what the source was, and am trying to verify it. I'd appreciate any pointers to info on the development of this game. Thanks!

There is a launch/gameplay video with Jack and the three designers. I just watched it, and it's a little difficult to get though for obvious reasons. There's some info they discuss about the genesis of the game.

Is it true another run is coming later in the year?
