No one can find him. 

I found him! He's on a DVD.

What about "Curucu, Beast of the Amazon"? Or, doesn't that count?

Apparently, Universal still has the distribution rights to "Curucu" and it's co-production "Love Slaves of the Amazon".

The letters don't indicate how they are made on demand.

Ask Warner.

Ask Warner.

He's dead!

Does it matter?

I'm sure it will last longer than me - and no one will want the used discs.  Everyone will be streaming everything by then.

It would be nice to be able to stream everything in the Library of Congress...

You've convinced me. I'm not buying it.

I really like Mystery of the Wax Museum and want to get it. Best Buy had a good price on it, but they are sold out. I tried to get it directly from Shop WB, but when it came to check out, by the time they calculated in tax and shipping it added almost 50% to the cost of the disc! I guess I will have to wait for either a sale or a good coupon.

I just got Mystery of the Wax Museum Blu-Ray. I watched it on the big screen last night and it looks AMAZING!!! They did a great job with the restoration, crystal clear and blemish free. Also, they didn't try to "correct" the color, it is still the weird, dreamy two-tone Technicolor palette; everything in shades of pink and green. It reminded me of a stylish Italian horror film. I wish they had filmed a lot more genre films in this process. Hopefully they will restore Dr. X next. Highly recommended!
