Complete overview: Django/BluRay - The Spaghetti Western Database

Those genre releases by small German/Austrian publishers are often excessively expensive (releases costing 30 euros are very common) and it’s very hard to ever find them cheap. They could learn something from their British and American counterparts.

[stanton]

It’s pretty cheap compared to the new German Don’t Torture a Duckling Blu for only 110 € …

It’s all part of the new Please Torture the Customer (aka Don’t Spend a Buck for Anything Else) major offensive by the film distributors.

[Admin (Sebastian)]

I disagree, it’s part of the “let’s make more money from collectors so there’ll be more of these movies on home video”

Granted, 109 bucks is excessive, so is 40 bucks for Django. But most of these companies make little profit from these niche releases, so one way to ensure that they can continue those classic cult movie lines is by tapping the premium market, i.e. following a Criterion strategy. At least in parts… I’m split on these questions but I prefer an amazing release to a measly 9,99 one any day if it means that movie hasn’t ever gotten this much love since it came out in theaters.

[stanton]

Maybe, but the 3 Django versions are probably only offering the Studiocanal Blu again. In that case you would pay mainly for the package and maybe a booklet.

And the Fulci disc surely isn’t worth the 110 little fuckers.

Criterion is of course mostly worth the price.

Cut-Throts Nine, from Code Red, soon

[last.caress]

Are Code Red blu-rays generally region free, or is this going to be strictly a region “A” affair?

[Bill_san_Antonio]

Is it impossible to correct that typo?

[AvatarDK]

Haha. Didn’t notice it straight away Strange how something so easy to check hasn’t been caught.

Maybe the cover is only a mock-up? Pretty dreadful either way.

[chuck_connors_brother]

They printed the DVD with that typo… great looking print though, and they fixed the explosion at the end

[John_Welles]

MVD Entertainment are releasing Comin’ at Ya on 3D BD on January 26th.

Pretty good cover:

Gaumont is releasing Minnesota Clay in March 2016

But only with the (useless ) French dub or… ?

Beste Western Action bietet „Die Verfluchten der Pampas“ aus dem jahr 1966. Der Italo-Western des Old Shatterhand Regisseurs Hugo Fregonese und Robert Taylor in der Hauptrolle lag ebenfalls im 70mm Großformat zur Verfügung, welche einen hochauflösenden 8K Scan ermöglichte. Nach über 50 Jahren bringt die Busch Media Group dieses Klassiker wieder ganz groß raus.

That’s great news. I had better start saving my pennies.

@AvatarDK

Good point. Let’s hope it at least as Italian audio with French subs. However, it looks like the old DVD was French audio only
