Hey, Ash595! I didn't get that PM with your email addy. I just sent it through to klokwerk so if I'm unable to get back here for the weekend - maybe he can get it to you.

Hey, sorry for the delay folks but I've had some computer troubles lately and have only just gotten back online. I lost everything so once I get all my drivers and programs sorted out, I'll do those scans. I'm still waiting on a reply from Meedermow so I can get 'The Incredibly Strange Filmshow' and the UK disc of MARTIN off to him.

I'm very disappointed by the general lack of response from HPotD. I can only hope its not due to snobbery, which I have experienced over there previously from certain members.

I still haven't heard from Meedermow. I hope everything is okay.

Hey folks,

You're not wrong there. Apologies for radio silence, had quite the busiest few months I've had and have had no time for such important things as this and the Alien projects !

But things are slowly winding down and with the current stuff I have and the promises of more from other sources we should be looking to ramp up towards mid-end September. DarthCarr - still out there and still behind the project - don't you worry

Cheers,

mm

Right, my computer is getting back on track so, klokwerk and Ash595, your scans are finally ready here.

I took the liberty of including the famous promotional photo of the 'machete zombie' as a potential alternative to the Scream Greats artwork version.

If there's any problems with the scans, lemme know.

Cheers.

P.S. I'll be mailing out Meedermow's stuff today. I'm a long ways away so it might take a little while to reach him.

No worries cashflagg - just clearing a huge backlog of requests/send outs so my mind is gradually becoming less cluttered in an attempt to allow more space for the zombies

Currently I have:

Mall Tour (DarthCarr)
22 Reunion (DarthCarr)
Laserdisc supplements & commentary (bigrob)
Goblin score (bigrob)
Unreleased music cues (bigrob)
DVD_ROM folder (crazyrabbits)
G4 Icons - Romero (meedermow)
Introduction by Romero to Dawn of the Dead BBC2 showing (meedermow)
Savini UK exclusive commentary (meedermow)

Anything more I receive I'll update as I get it.

Some part of me doesn't actually want to synch the commentaries up to the film - it would save a shed load of disc space and we could just sort out a slideshow etc. to play behind them - only because we know the film so well and it would turn the download from 7GB+ to 400MB and allow space for the real extras ! Any thoughts welcomed...

Cheers,

mm

Well, it's great having these hi-res versions of the Machete Head zombie. However, I was wondering if anyone here is good at vector stuff. I want to make the Machete Head zombie look like the iconic half-head zombie from the official Ultimate Edition cover. I've made a quick mock-up of what I mean. I can make a dedicated attempt sometime in the near future but I'd like for someone else to do it if anyone here is any good at it because chances are you'll be better than me.

Anyway... please excuse the horrendous colors that make him look... well, like this:

Hmmm... an interesting idea. I guess it would depend on just how screen-specific these commentaries get. For instance, its been a while since I've heard them but I know Romero has a tendancy to point out friends and family members in his films ...which could get kinda frustrating if you can't see exactly who he's talking about.

What are the alternatives?

I said he looks like Dr. Frankenfurter. Heheh.

The sentence didn't carry through for some reason. Sorry.

Yeah, that's exactly what he looks like. My girlfriend said the same thing when I showed her that preview image.

I'm not sure how I can make that 'vector'-y look work with a minimal color palette and I'm not even sure which colors to use. So... any ideas, anyone?

Received from Cashflagg (many thanks !):

Martin DVD Extra
Son of Incredibly Strange Filmshow (xvid format - if anyone has mpeg/DVD - let me know)

I've got both commentary tracks removed from their NTSC and PAL respective images, so can marry them up to a compressed version of the film - or have them as standalone extras with still pictures in the background.

Cheers,

mm

You're most welcome, meedermow.

I have Son of... on VHS but its a second generation dub and the original must've been in rough shape because it looks horrible. That xvid version looks a thousand times better. Its a shame it wasn't posted in DVD format but it was posted anonymously so I don't like our chances of locating a better copy.
