Will THRILLER ever be on DVD?

Universal released six episodes of Thriller on LaserDisc and VHS a few years back. Unfortunately whoever picked the episodes to release apparently didn't know the show too well as several of the episodes are not the best from the series. Of the episodes released The Premature Burial (starring Karloff) and The Terror in Teakwood are the best and represent how truly great the series could be. The Incredible Doktor Markesan (starring Karloff) and The Grim Reaper (with William Shatner) are second tier Thrillers and quite good in their own right. Masquerade (with Elizabeth Montgomery and Tom Poston) is a pretty irritating comedy episode and The Premonition (again starring Karloff) is very slow moving. You may be able to find them on EBay or at certain video outlets.
Good luck.

....i recently bought the COMPLETE SET on EBAY!....the print quality was great!.....it was a little costly but well worth it.....heres the link...... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6355496925&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOAB:US:6

I contacted universal and they told me that they have no intention of putting this on dvd any time in the near future....grrrrrrrrr!

Read this post last year about the obscure soundtrack CD of Pete Rugolo. Sounds interesting, but what I'm REALLY (!!!!!) interested in is a CD of the scores that a younger Jerry Goldsmith did for the show. Those were the ones that were most especially scary and creepy. Seems like Rugolo did most of the early ones, while Goldsmith and someone else ( whom I'm forgeting )did the other ones. Goldsmith's uncertain, frightning scores at the end credits were so perfect for this show. I see no mention of a soundtrack collection of any of his early tv work, which was considerable. If anyone hears about such an anthology ( hopefully including thriller!!! ), let us know.

It seems a later thread then this ( 2005 ) is talking that Universal might put it on DVD after all later this year.

I have heard that also, but alas the Thriller being released is not the Boris Karloff series, it is a British series from the Seventies. I remember watching it,it was not bad but it certainly was no THRILLER. Hopefully if we keep the pressure on, Universal will release this wonderful classic on DVD.
Outer Limits, One Step Beyond, TZ and soon Alfred Hitchcock are on DVD--why not Thriller?

100.00 bucks on that skaryguyvideo site, its tempting but I buy this stuff and never end up watching it, lol. I did like watching Karloff though on Thriller. I highly recommend getting Karlof in the movie "Targets", I got it in a store for like 7 bucks, he's great and the thing of it is he tells this story about a man trying to escape death (the reaper) and the man is in Iraq, the way he told that tale it totally freaked me out because I was going to Iraq in 2 weeks! Someone needs to have a public domain cable channel that plays only obscure stuff. Why not? There's a freaking channel for some stuff out there I'll never watch! I'd probably watch a public domain channel everyday! They could show a Thriller episode followed by One Step Beyond and than show stuff like Kuckla, Fran and Ollie and than Felix the Cat (the one with the Master Cylinder from the 50's), come on you would be watching that stuff kickin back and lovin it! Than they could show Love American Style and than The In Laws. You know they show the Dick Van Dyke Show over and over and I hate that show! Even the Munsters are getting played out, that show only lasted 2 seasons and its been played for 40 years! I'm watching this One Step Beyond collectors edition from Diamond Entertainment (schlock miester's of crap releases) as I write this and that show is without a doubt, very very boreing. Give me some Thriller!
