Explosive Media

it is not the greatest of websites, what they have. i take my info from uli directly though and try to update the catalog immediately

some updates

http://www.spaghetti-western.net/index.php/Explosive_Media_catalog

also added bluray of violent city to the bottom of the page… nice catalog coming together here

Pretty bummed that Garringo won’t get the blu treatmeant

That does suck…

They only can get a SD master from the owner of the rights.

As long as its a high quality DVD I’m fine with an SD release. There are many more important films that deserve to get a BD release before Garringo does, even though I happen to like this film alot. I think its in my top 20 if I can remember.

Hopefully some reviews with screenshots pop up for Garringo, as the DVD version I already have is quite good and don’t really see any need to double dip

You have the Italian DVD?

A custom DVD which adds English to the Italian release. I suppose I may still want to get the Explosive release if its got some good extras, or nice package, but the PQ on this version is already great

Here is the catalog Explosive Media catalog - The Spaghetti Western Database

Thumbs up man. Looks really good! BTW: Any chance to get the song “Other men’s gold” as bonus on the “Sledge” release?

I guess for bonus feature wishes it is a bit late… I also assume that music licensing is a whole other matter.

Why was this release canceled?

Licensing issues have held this back unfortunately

I dug the hell out of it, I wish Garner had made more. The release is great as well

coming this March:

Single DVD release and a limited DVD/BluRay release of Garringo

http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B01BG0SYF0/italowestern-21

http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B01BG0T2K6/italowestern-21

Single DVD release and limited DVD/BluRay release of Face to Face

http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B01BG0T2DI/italowestern-21

http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B01BHDVPR0/italowestern-21

Is this Blu-ray going to be the uncut version of Face to Face? That would be fantastic!

I will ask @upbruckner what source material he was able to get a hold of

Face to Face: there exists no HD master of the uncut version. So the double pack BluRay/DVD edition will contain the shorter cut on BluRay and the uncut version on DVD.
If someone can help out finding a complete English track for the uncut version, they can include that. So if you know, please do help out.
