[Blu-ray] Latest and Upcoming Releases 📀

[Novecento]

@aldo

Speaking to a festival organiser at the Almeria Western Film Festival, a few years ago, I inquired as to why the rather odd selection of older films being screened … He explained that it was down to the budget they had for paying copyright owners … he told me that the Spanish owner of ‘For a Few Dollars More’ (La muerte tenía un precio) Death had a Price - wanted 3000 euros for a one off screening, and that was a DVD projected, not a 35mm print. In contrast they could have screened ‘Once Upon a Time in the West’ for just 50 euros !

Thanks for sharing - that’s an interesting post!

It was pointed out to me that our DVD/BluRay news section could be updated better. Who can help out? Spaghetti Western DVD news - The Spaghetti Western Database

Some rumours/indications floating around that Arrow will be releasing Sartana and Light the Fuse… Sartana is Coming:

And the holy grail, a Sartana box set, is being dreamt about again

Sartana box set[/quote]

Just imagine if Arrow released it in the style of their Hellraiser Scarlett Box.

I’m gonna scream if they actually announce a box set. I might just have a heart attack.

I would bloody LOVE an Arrow Sartana box-set containing the proper Sartana movies. I might even cry. Or crack one out, flinging my man-yoghurt all up the curtains. Or both.

I would be perfectly happy with just If You Meet Sartana, Pray For Your Death getting the Arrow blu-ray treatment.

I would be kind-of flummoxed if this led to the release of Light the Fuse… Sartana is Coming alone, but I’ve no doubt I’d buy it anyway with renewed hope for the other four movies.

I will fall into a screaming, psychopathic rage if, for reasons as yet undetermined, Arrow were to release any of the above locked to region A only. I would hoy all of my Arrow discs into the Thames estuary (I wouldn’t really) and perform a sequence of voodoo dances designed to hopefully bring about a supernatural apocalypse upon the company (I would really) as I already do with Kino f*cking Lorber (I do, really).

I can almost promise you that there will be no Sartana boxset from Arrow. The best we can hope for is a double feature of some sort or a couple of single releases. When and if they are released I’m positive that they will be released in both region A and B territories so locking shouldn’t be a problem.

Why?

[kevenz (KevenLC)]

the sartana serie certainly deserve some love, most of the movies don’t have proper releases

[Gritz]

A Box set is possible for these movies, they certainly do need some love because they don’t have any good proper releases out there as Kevenz already pointed out. I will be upset though if they don’t release the original since there is already a 4k master done.

[AvatarDK]

It’s simply not economically feasible for Arrow to release such a set I gather. I would buy it sure, but Arrow probably have to sell around 2000 copies at a price nearing £50 - £60. And suddenly the set isn’t as desirable anymore to a lot of people

I think there’s a reason that we haven’t seen Arrow pumping these spaghetti westerns out in a steady stream and that is that they are sloooow sellers.

Am I missing some great 2017 releases? I want to compile a best of for the holiday shopping guide Holiday Shopping Guide 2017 - The Spaghetti Western Database

[VanEyck (Nick)]

Looks pretty damn good Sebastian. I’m making sure to purchase Leichen Pflastern Seinen Weg for myself.

…even though I don’t have a multi region player

[Admin (Sebastian)]

please note that it is not an English-friendly release

[VanEyck (Nick)]

Oh I’ve known that lol, I still want it regardless!

[Admin (Sebastian)]

I knew it, brushing up on your German or Italian?

[AvatarDK]

Well. 101 Films has released Zorro and Code Red Vengenace if you are looking to complete the list

And the It Can Be Done Amigo! included in the new Die Dicke Bud Spencer box set. I have no idea if that is at all English friendly? Anybody at all acquired it yet?

Amazon description says “partially in English”, I assume that has to do with incomplete audio on the German track or so…

Updated the info https://www.spaghetti-western.net/index.php/Si_può_fare…_amigo/BluRay

Seems like both comedy and serious version is included, I think I will actually get this, especially since the other movies are also included for the first time in vastly improved versions. Too bad the box is not entirely English friendly

[kevenz (KevenLC)]

I got the german blu ray of It can be done Amigo and I can confirm there’s no English audio or subtitles. Only german and Italian for both versions.

same goes for the new german blu ray of The Great Silence, no English audio or subtitles.
