I love the Vestron Collector’s Series. The upcoming release of All the Boys Love Mandy Lane will be #42 in the series, and I kind of wish I had them all.
For those who may not know, Vestron Video was a home-video label that started in the 1980s. They distributed all kinds of movies, but I naturally remember them best for their horror and sci-fi releases. I’m pretty sure I still have a few Vestron VHS tapes from back then. Vestron Video went away in the 1990s, but it was revived by Lionsgate in 2016. Now, under the Vestron Collector’s Series is like a boutique Blu-ray label that puts out special editions of movies owned by Lionsgate.
Not all of the Vestron series of Blu-rays are horror, but many of them are. The next movie Vestron is releasing is All the Boys Love Mandy Lane, a 2006 slasher movie. No spoilers here, but I enjoyed the movie much more than I expected when I finally saw it.
Part of the reason I say “finally” is because the movie went to festivals in 2006, but it didn’t get released in the U.S. until 2013. But now it’s getting the Vestron treatment, which I think is fitting. The movie is really good in my opinion, but it’s not for everyone. If you do plan to watch it though, don’t read too much about it. You’ll enjoy it more that way.
The Vestron Collector’s Series edition of All the Boys Love Mandy Lane is currently on pre-sale on the Lionsgate Limited online shop. Special features include commentary from director Jonathan Levine and an interview from star Amber Heard (which are both from earlier releases), plus a new featurette titled “Sun-Soaked Subversion.” The release date is listed for December 15, 2026.
