Arrow Video Collection
by DougWonnacott | created - 22 Apr 2015 | updated - 4 days ago | PublicAll of these films have been released on DVD or Blu-Ray by the UK distribution company Arrow Films. They have four sub labels:
Arrow Video - The main label. This is used for cult films and obscure genre films. I guess approximately half of these are horror films.
Arrow Drome - These are budget barebones DVD re-releases of some of the Arrow Video titles.
Arrow Academy - These are world cinema, arthouse and classic films.
Arrow Films - New releases, documentaries and others.
Most of the films I own are blu-ray Arrow Video releases. I will note in the description if it's a dvd or an Arrow Drome or Arrow Academy release. I'll also note if the film is included as a special feature from another blu ray.
I will also include films which are announced future releases I will definitely be buying when they're released.
