Arrow Video just made my Summer baby :star_struck: I’ll be double dipping on Massacre Time and My Name is Pecos, but I don’t mind at all as I like them a lot.

And 3 out 4 titles feature on our Alternative Top 20 list. :sunglasses:
Only Pecos missing out from there

Obviously all details already added to the SWDb thanks to Matthias and myself

Let’s hope “Vengeance Trails Volume 2” is next!

To be honest, I don’t think the film is all bad but I can understand the frustration. The only reason it has been easily available for so long is because of the cast. People see Van Cleef and Palance and assume it must be better than the average spaghetti western. For me, it’s watchable but I wouldn’t have lost any sleep if it never got a Blu-ray release since the DVD was more than enough.

Happy with the new Arrow box but the alternate end title sequence for Bandidos makes me think the ending is still abruptly cut but now they include the riding away scene as a deleted scene?

Yikes!

Hey I could be wrong! :yum:

Some years ago I would have tried to contact someone from Arrow and see what is going on, find out if they know about cuts, but I have given up on trying to change things. Well, mostly… I can still write/complain on forums. :wink:

Arrow are very approachable and open to suggestions. They were very happy when I offered them the English dub for Highway Racer, for example
