I was also surprised to see DANGER SIGNAL and ROGUE COP among the missing; there are a number of MGM noirs that are still not on DVD (as noted previously), so it's possible there is something going on with rights, etc. that is holding things up.
And that seems to be the case with the restored version of THE DEVIL THUMBS A RIDE, which was a "bonus" screening at the Palm Springs festival last month (for full passholders). That was shown at Cinema Ritrovato in Bologna 2-3 years ago but there seems to be something about the US rights that has continued to keep it under wraps.
Will go back and add the titles you mention--there are others as well, and I'll see if my brain will cough up their names so we can have a somewhat more complete list.
