Does anybody have any info on this title? I tried ordering it from Deep Discount DVD during the big sale, but they listed it as discontinued on my order.

BWAH! Do I need to run out and search for this, paying top dollar, or does anyone know if this is one of those short moratoriums due to a price reduction (I hope)?

I haven't heard anything, several online sites still seem to have it. I am very surprised at the price it's going for. Also weird that DDD still lists it.

Hopefully it is getting a price reduction as you mentioned.

Thanks, Cow.

I did a search for my Borders around here (several of them) and there was only one at one location... and it was the Alpha version (blech). I see several places that offer it for order, but most don't have quantity on hand statuses. DVD Empire said they had one left, so I went ahead and placed an order for it there.

Hopefully they've actually got it... and hopefully, if it is a price reduction, someone will post verifiable info while I can still cancel the order.

I just watched this on TCM and was thinking about picking it up. The local Borders has it (although it's way too much there) and I still see it at DDD and a few other places. Odd that it would go out of print. Does Kino do that often?

Save your time and energy, don't order from DDD. I said in my first post how DDD cancelled my order.

Also, the one I found at Borders was not the Kino version, although that's what the online inventory said when I searched it. Wehn I called, the clerk only could find the cheap Alpha version.

I would try Amazon if you're interested. They say it ships within 24 hours, which is a good indicator that they actually have it on hand in their system somewhere. When they have to place an order with a distributor, you'll see it listed as a 2-3 day ship period, not 24 hours.

As for Kino, I have no idea how often their titles go on moratorium.

Aside from all that, Daniel, how was the show? I've never seen it before, but I've been checking out a lot of vintage German cinema lately, so this easily crept in my want list.

Sorry, I don't know if the dvd has been discontinued or is set for a price reduction, but here is the link to it at Overstock:

Overstock Catalog #2520852

Listed as "in stock" w/o any "danger" warning (which they do when their stock in an item is low.)

You can go directly to Kino, I saw it there but its expensive.

Kino is a fave studio of mine and while MSRP reductions would be nice, I've never seen that happen. Its possible that its just out of stock, or maybe they lost the rights to it. This happened with The Tin Drum awhile ago.

I've noticed also that Kino's "Golem" seems to not be available either.
