Command Cinema Vintage Classics to Be Released on DVD

NEW YORK — Several adult classics from legendary producer Cecil Howard’s Command Cinema are slated for transfer to DVD for distribution by Media Blasters.

Until recently, Media Blasters has primarily focused on mainstream products, including cult and horror classics. The company also is well known for distributing Japanese anime titles, including the popular adults-only Bible Black series.

Master Blasters Vice President of Adult Sales Gary Conner told XBiz that the success of Bible Black, which contains explicit animated content, prompted the company to reach out into live-action adult titles, and he was thrilled when Command Cinema chose Media Blasters from a long list of potential suitors to distribute the first two titles from its library of 35mm films.

“We’re going to take a Criterion Collection approach to these DVDs,” Conner told XBiz, referring to Merchant Ivory’s continuing series of mainstream Hollywood classics, which are re-mastered and re-issued in collector’s editions that offer supplemental material and bonus features.

In the case of Command Cinema, Media Blasters will pull the 35mm negatives of these adult treasures out of the vaults, repackage them for the digital age with cast interviews, director’s commentaries and other extras, then put them into the hands of porn collectors.

“Our concept was to find the best retrospective adult titles that are all brand new to DVD,” Conner said. “These [Command Cinema] movies are the best of the best. And they have probably the best collection of bonus materials.”

Media Blasters will start slowly, releasing one title in November and one in December. First up is 1979’s “Babylon Pink,” starring Samantha Fox and Vanessa Del Rio, which hits streets on Nov. 29. It will be followed on Dec. 27 by “Neon Nights” with Lysa Thatcher and Veronica Hart.

If all goes well with the first two titles, Command and Media Blasters will look to release additional movies from Command's libarary of 47 titles.
