Elvira: Mistress of the Dark Limited Edition Blu-ray Cancelled!

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Well, this sucks. Turns out that awesome Blu-ray special edition of ELVIRA: MISTRESS OF THE DARK we told you guys about a few months back isn't going to be happening after all.

Yes, the kibosh has been put on the whole thing due to yet another delay that proved to be a killer. You can read the full statement from Cinespectral Films below where they go into not only the real issues behind the collapse of the new edition but their strategy for getting all the customers who pre-ordered their money back.

Again, you can read the full statement below and then make sure to hit us up on social media and let us know if you were one of the peeps that pre-ordered the disc on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram.

Cinespectral Films statement:

Dear Customers,

We have to apologize for the recent silence. Unfortunately, we have to confirm that the release of ELVIRA MOTD and HELL COMES TO FROGTOWN on Blu-ray, for now, is being put on hold. We were forced to face another delay which would have put the release into mid-September. Which obviously would have been outside of the purchase protection period for all customers of the first two weeks of pre-order. The general management decided that ALL customers will get their money refunded within the next 7 business days. Once that will be completed we will cease all activities. 

However, rumors that the company went into administration are entirely made up.

Please note that we will work down the list of transactions in sequence of orders (starting with orders from 7th of March). PayPal complaints will be handled besides that, so delays on such refunds might appear.

Few customers sent us "payment-requests" for the total amount of their orders. We will decline such requests. We are working down all refunds/complaints like written above. Every transaction has to be handled manually to be refunded. We apologize, but this might take some time.

We are aware of technical PayPal issues which are connected with come 11th of August date, however, that is in no connection to our account. Complaints/Refunds are already handled right now.

For the customers who asked if the contents of our set might resurface on another release, there is a good chance right now that another German company will release the set in the way it was planned.

Sincerely,

Cinespectral Films

Sad news, and my sympathies if you pre-ordered a copy. That said, it'is not the end of the world and you can always snag a copy of the film on DVD RIGHT HERE. Those special features were pretty killer…
