Boxing Helena, will also be available on Blu-ray. And speaking of Sherilyn Fenn, City Lights is bringing the world a film called
Zombie High, from 1987 and also starring Virginia Madsen, on 23 June. This would be director Ron Link's first and last film.

Le jupon rouge, with Alida Valli, comes out on the 7th. Sony announced the long overdue Spanish horror film
[REC], which was remade into
Quarantine, on 14 July. Nikita Mikhalkov's
12 will be out the same day, also from Sony.

Las hurdes [
Land Without Bread] and
Death in the Garden [
La mort en ce jardin] with Simone Signoret. Mitchell Leisen's
Remember the Night, written by Preston Sturges and starring Barbara Stanwyck? Whit Stillman's
The Last Days of Disco for certain getting a Criterion release?
The State is out 14 July, the 2 Buñuels are certain but without a date,
The Last Days of Disco is a distinct possibility and the Leisen may just be an Amazon placeholder. We'll see.
