Got an e-mail from amazon.de for the "Damiano Damiani Collection", saying that they didn't know the release date yet.

On the other hand, they will send me "Beatrice Cenci" soon. It's in German, but I don't have much of a problem with that. (With french releases I need subs and then can only read half of it: very annoying and distracting).

I would have, however, preferred the french release despite the french subs. But that's just cause I liked that label a lot, and the package would have been great as usual.

Do you speak German too? The hardbox has English on it though.

Yeah I do. Live about 4 kms from the border. And you are talking about a better release with that hartbox  It was in fact the one someone offered me on this forum and he sold it eventually for the price I was willing to give on eLame with one bid. But of course they take a little off of it, so retrospectively he would have been better off selling it to me.

This is the release I am talking about:

GBP 15 btw, if you're interested.

No idea if it's better or not.

It's the only English-'friendly' release I am aware of. And even though I speak german; I speak english as well and better too, even. But I often have a hard enough time understanding idiots here speaking my own language. Therefore: English is much more preferable. And like I said, that hartbox is the only one I know of that has English audio (I did some research when I started the 'looking for'-thread).

But to tell you the truth: I would have gotten the French Neo Publishing DVD ages ago, but the price held me back. But that also has to do with the fact that I really liked this label, that had so many excellent releases in great quality video, and really nice boxes.

R.I.P.

P.S. German dubbing is fucking horrible. VERDAMMTE SCHEISS PEGGY! (al bundy)

Got an e-mail from amazon.de for the "Damiano Damiani Collection", saying that they didn't know the release date yet.

The Box got cancelled, according to a statement Koch Media made on a German message board on monday.

This is mainly because they still would've to invest quite a sum of money into "Strega ..." while on the other hand there have been only meagre pre-orders so far.

That's bad news.

A cross-post here 

[KommissarX]

The upcoming Koch Giallo Collection N°2 will include the following films:

     + WHO SAW HER DIE (1972, Aldo Lado)
     + THE PYJAMA GIRL CASE (1977, Flavio Mogherini)
     + IN THE FOLDS OF THE FLESH (1970, Sergio Bergonzelli)

No information on language options or extras yet. Keeping in line with their first box I guess there will be quite a bit of discussion about what can be considered a giallo. Since I already have all three films on dvd I am going to pass this time. If only they had started their collections in BD format... I still hope sales will be good enough so that more boxes will eventually see the light of the day, hopefully including films that didn't have previous dvd editions.

in September.

I'd like to see that again, I watched it on C4 (I think) when I was about 14 or so, can't remember it that well.

[the blob]

That'll be a must for me. Loved the book  and it's a good adaptation.

I have two of them. Hopefully they will add some cool posters to the box, but I'm still not getting it.

Koch recently had a change of heart: They altered the artwork and chucked out THE PYJAMA GIRL CASE, replacing it with Umberto Lenzi's OASIS OF FEAR. Is it just me or is their Giallo Collection turning into a backup of the Shameless catalogue?
I wouldn't be surprised if PYJAMA and the long overdue FOOTPRINTS will eventually show up in a possible 3rd box.
