the company plans to release a new Blu-ray/DVD title every month to their collection. What will their first entry be? None other than 1959’s The Giant Gila Monster, the film will come on a two-disc bundle with 1959’s The Killer Shrews. The two films were both produced by Ken Curtis and directed by Ray Kellogg, produced back-to-back and released as a double-feature.

...

Following the initial release, Film Masters plans on releasing 1959’s Beast from Haunted Cove on October 24th, and 1934’s The Scarlett Letter on November 21st. Each release will feature a restored 4K 35mm scan with original film elements and aspect ratios. The discs will also be region-free with DTS-HD and Dolby AC3s sound. The releases will also feature original bonus content. Film Masters also has a Youtube channel with content ranging from clips to full feature films that are free to stream!

I forgot to mention that.

For those following on at home, it's this video.

It would take some serious detective work to figure out all the films on there but the main take-away is that they have a much more eclectic mix of films in the pipeline than the initial slate might suggest. I've signed up to their mailing list as there's guaranteed to be something on there to tickle my fancy.

Not sure if that was a pun but I hear this is from some of the guys behind The Film Detective.

No pun intended, but if it shook loose some extra information then it has done it's job.
