Since the DVD is not in the film's OAR there were a lot of complaints and Eyecatcher said there would be a proper version to come (with free replacement for those who bought their first release). I'll wait for the proper release if there'll ever be one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads-up Ephedrino. This is a rare title that I have never seen and I tried to find an American source to no avail. So, like you, I'll wait to see if a proper version is released before trying to order a copy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info, Ephedrino! Does Eyecather have an official site? I'd like to know where to ask for a replacement once it's released. There's no info on DVD case and I can't find anything with Google either.
ReplyDeleteThey introduced one a short while ago at http://www.eyecatcher-movies.net/ but it's down again. Generally, a rather esoteric company. I'll let Tom know as soon as there's news on one of the German insider boards.
ReplyDeleteI saw this film on TV 30 years ago and thought it was pretty good. Klaus Kinski drives his horse like a Ferrari. The score is available as part of a 3-score CD. Excellent music. English title: Last Ride to Santa Cruz.
