Dr. Who & The Daleks: The Official Story of the Films
Regenerated in out of this world 4K, Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. directed by Gordon Flemyng, stars Peter Cushing in his return to the big screen as British TV’s most iconic sci-fi hero, Dr. Who. The earth of 2150 A.D. is a desolate and hostile ruin of a planet, crumbling at the edge of civilisation, slowly disappearing into the darkness of space.
For the future of planet earth now belongs to The Daleks, a destructive army of alien invaders who have turned humans into cowering slaves. Meanwhile deep within the London Underground a group of resistance freedom fighters are planning an attack. But there’s only one man who could possibly help them succeed in destroying their extra-terrestrial enemies and take back control of planet earth. A man of mystery, a man of time and space, a man known only as… The Dr.

July 25th, 2022 - 1:50amFor people who just want Blu-rays of the new 4k remasters, they’re on Amazon Germany (the versions with the new cover art). From the Marketplace sellers at the mo you can get each film for under a tenner (including delivery to the UK). They have English, German and French language options so shouldn’t have any foreign-language-only restrictions.

July 20th, 2022 - 5:44pmThere’s an Amazon review stating that Philip Madoc’s line about cutting Doctor Who’s throat is missing, and he just mouths the words silently. Can anyone else confirm this please? The review gets other things slightly wrong, but I remember the line from my VHS because it’s a bit strong for a kids’ film. (I’m thinking it might have been cut from the cinema release, for the desired rating, but made its way out on later printings.)

July 20th, 2022 - 10:03pmI’m going back on this, I think I “remember” dialogue that wasn’t there, a child’s imagination filling the gaps. There was a similar line in the David Lean Great Expectations which was a bit grizzly for a supposed family time slot, and I’m thinking the memories merged. Anyone else have (false) memories of the line?

August 25th, 2022 - 8:36pmThat dialogue was definitely there. As an adult back in the 1983 I watched this on a BBC channel as part of Classic Sci fi films that ran on Tuesday evenings and saw it again on a Saturday morning in 1985. Clearly I remember Philip Madoc’s character saying this line “i’ll slit his throat”. I thought at the time, wow they wouldn’t use dialogue like this now as they did in the 1960s especially for a Kids movie. That stuck in my mind. I guess somewhere down the years, the powers that be omitted this. Interesting stuff.

April 14th, 2022 - 1:05pmGiving these a miss, cover art does not come even close to the metallic blu-ray steelbooks already released, seriously, how many times do they expect to resell the same item? blu ray quite enough resolution for me…

April 14th, 2022 - 6:00pmIt’s a new 4k restoration which I’m hoping to see when the double bill is released in cinemas in July.

July 11th, 2022 - 11:29amIt’s not so much about the resolution as much as it is the quality of the new restoration. The old blu-rays were done from scans of the interpositive prints, whereas these new ones are done from the original techniscope negatives, so are significantly higher quality in terms of clarity and colour, not just resolution, well worth the upgrade even if you just get the standard blu-ray of this restoration.

April 14th, 2022 - 12:42pmDoes anyone know if the collectors sets come with the steelbook too or are they separate?

April 14th, 2022 - 12:29pmI must be in a minority, I love the cover art, it’s what attracted me to the set.

April 13th, 2022 - 5:12pmNot particularly fond of the cartoony box art. Makes it look a bit like a childrens cartoon box set.
But at least this means I can finally stop hunting down the original Steelbook release.
There’s no mention of a coin in the details, is that included? I first thought it was for scale for some reason but it’s non-standard and there is detail on it.

April 14th, 2022 - 8:21amThey are arguably childrens’ films to be fair

April 14th, 2022 - 10:51amI’m not overly ford of the art. I’d have preferred the poster art be used.

April 13th, 2022 - 3:51pmReally love the look of these, but the price is a bit steep.
