Great review. I have always liked Martin - first saw it in 1979 during my film course at university in UEA. I ordered this from HMV and it is on the way🎉🎉🎉. Romero is so much more than just zombies 🧟♂️

Brilliant - bought this as soon as it was announced. Still haunted by my first watching of this on Channel 4 in the 80s when I wasn't prepared for what a great film I was about to see. Thanks for the review - looking forward to Second Sight announcing their Hitcher release date

Hi, I enjoyed watching your video. I've been a fan of Martin since first seeing it in the early 90s, and I love this new Second Sight edition. A three and a half hour version was recently discovered, I would be very interested in seeing that. Take care, Paul

@@manvfilm Dario Argento also did a cut of Martin with Goblin doing the soundtrack (it was included on the 2010 Arrow edition). Did you know Soft Cell released a 10 minute song about Martin?

An excellent review for an excellent film. The videos where you detail all of the contents alongside a review are really helpful. This new set looks great. I have the old Arrow Video DVD, which does pale in comparison to this release. Though there is one extra that I'm surprised wasn't carried over: the Italian version 'Wampyr' edited by Dario Argento, complete with a soundtrack by Goblin. This set is really tempting.
