Night of the Comet fans are in for a real treat this month; not only has the film just been released on Blu-ray by Arrow Films, but following discussions on Facebook with the film’s Music Producer, Don Perry (see News item on 17 May 2014), cassette tapes were uncovered containing some of the tracks from the film that were not included in the original Official Soundtrackrelease.
The newly uncovered tracks include:
Don has graciously supplied the tracks and with the help of fan René Neferuaten they are now available for your aural pleasure on René’s YouTube page.
Thanks go to Don Perry and Bob Summers [Bob, as well as writing several of the tracks, produced the songs along with Don] for letting the fans hear these tracks. Please respect their wishes that these tracks are for the fans and not to be used for commercial gain.
Night of the Comet star, Catherine Mary Stewart (Reggie) will be a guest at this year’s Winter London Film and Comic Con where you can have the opportunity to receive an autograph and/or a photograph with Cathy.
The Con will be held on the 18-19 October 2014 in Earls Court 2, Old Brompton Road, SW5 9TA and Catherine will be in attendance on both days. As an extra bonus, if you are a member of Cathy’s Facebook Group page, if you say to Cathy, “I follow you on Facebook”, you can get a free signed postcard.
Tickets for the Convention can be purchased online from www.londonfilmandcomiccon.com.
Night of the Comet will see a UK screening next month as part of the Fling! Film Festival being held in Tain, Ross-Shire in the north of Scotland.
Fling! has been set up and managed by the Seaboard Film Society in conjunction with a local group of young people to celebrating the best in youth cinema and films about youth. They will screen both short films and features/ documentaries that are for young people or have a youth theme.
Night of the Comet will screen on Saturday, 4 October 2014 at 9.30pm in the Duthac Centre, Shandwick St, Tain IV19 1BQ. Tickets are £4 (+89p booking fee) and can be ordered online from eventbrite.com.
Recently added to the Memorabilia section of the site is an interview with Catherine Mary Stewart from the July 1984 edition of Starlog magazine. Catherine talks about her recently completed projects The Last Star Fighter and Night of the Comet.
One point of note is that it seems Night of the Comet was originally intended as a July 1984 release, however, the film did not see a release until the November of that year.
Distributer Arrow Films have posted on Twitter that copies of the forthcoming Night of the Comet Blu-ray release have arrived and will be shipping soon.
The Blu-Ray is scheduled for release on 22 September 2014, and the UK release features a couple of extras that were not on the Scream Factory USA release. Full specs are listed below.
You can pre-order direct from Arrow Films (£15.99).
