R4 Exclusives to look for? - New Zealand

I'm heading down under in a couple weeks to visit a buddy from high school. This'll be my first time seeing him since we graduated about 10 years ago and I'm really looking forward to it. Even so, as long as I'm down there I may as well check out the local stock as well. I've got a short list of R4's (Australian) on my "to buy" list that I can normally find online - except for a few OOPs I'll keep my eyes open for -- but are there any NZ releases that are exclusives, best versions or any nice collectors editions I should be looking out for?

Any and all decent suggestions appreciated.

Which "Fracture" is that? The new Hopkins film?

I believe there was a fairly nice limited edition of cronenberg's The Fly. It came packaged in a mini-transporter device. The Japanese released a similar set that has 7 films related to and including The Fly but I'm not sure the R4 release has the same number of films. Perhaps someone else could elaborate more about the specifics than I.

Fracture is very good, very much worth checking out, also 'Scarfies' is a nice little NZ film.

"Trust" by Hal Hartley, starring the late Adrienne Shelly... excellent dark comedy, and a great DVD as well.
