Recent BU Poliziotteschi Half Price at Amazon

[theWitcher]

The Big Racket (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000EQ5UAA) showed up in my Gold Box this AM, and I noticed that its regular price is $9.97.

I looked up the rest of the recent wave of Blue Underground Castellaris (including Street Law (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000EQ5U9Q) and The Heroin Busters (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000EQ5UA0)) and all three are $9.97, or 50% off.

FWIW, How To Kill A Judge (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000CR8QVG) and La Scorta (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000CR8QV6) are also included in what appears to be sale.

I'm just gonna stop buying new releases altogether unless they're limited edition titles. I've gotten all five of these within the past month.

Any of those Enzo Castellari titles come highly recommended---I'm glad these poliziotteschi titles are finally starting to show up on DVD in R1---guess they're running out of giallos to license, but I'm not complaining.

Thanks for the info all the same.

Do any of these have bad PAL-to-NTSC conversions? I thought I read that some of the earlier ones by BU did, but I wasn't paying too close attention.

I have a lot of BU titles and I must say they are all pretty good.

I know that there were concerns over some of NoShame's earliest releases, with bad conversions causing ghosting, etc---but I don't remember hearing such things about any BU releases.

It's not exactly mainstream.

Yes, NoShame is the company I was thinking of, found some of the old reviews to confirm. Thanks.
