Everything I've seen from the director of HORROR EXPRESS has been very enjoyable. I'll have to get this one, too.

I'd be interested to see what the running time on this release is going to be. I have the Dutch print which clocks in at approx 85 minutes - though I'm wondering if there is a longer print out there?. The film itself is fairly solid but it's not a classic in my opinion. It does manage quite a decent atmosphere and the two psycho sisters put in a nice performance.

Hmm Odeon are not known for quality... fingers crossed it will be a nice release. I wonder what happened with Redemption's plans...

I only have one Odeon release--A DAY AT THE BEACH--which, although presented in a fullscreen ratio, isn't too bad. I'll definitely be pre-ordering this, so if you'd rather wait and see, I can let you know, Magnus.

As long as it will be in the correct aspect ratio I will probably buy it. Have you seen it available for pre-order online except for Sendit?

It'll be on Play and Amazon.co.uk before the week is out  :D

Luminous Film and Video Wurks has a DVDR of the widescreen Dutch version.  They've made it anamorphic (cropping the mattes and resizing it for 16:9).  It looks okay given the source and the additional compression.  I think a lot of the DVDRs at their site are $9.95 right now.

I'd never support those bootleggers so I'll wait for the official R2.  :P

That's quite a lame cover imo.

It is, but it's an obscure film and it's relatively cheap too.  :D

Here's an early review of the forthcoming DVD by Odeon Entertainment. Despite its obvious flaws I'm still gonna pick it up.
