On November 29, 2019 UCM.ONE will release two trash classics by Roger Corman in Germany, Austria and Switzerland: “Wizard of the Lost Kingdom” and “Forbidden World“. They will be released on the label M-Square Classics, both in the recently HD-scanned international cinema version, as limited edition media books consisting of Blu-ray, DVD and 16-page booklet.
