Tough to pay almost full price for Nighthawks and Strip Jack Naked, but with both going OOP a couple of months ago, they probably won't be any cheaper. Also disappointed to see the conversion rate is now 1.52, up from 1.45.

from Amazon UK:

1 "The Valley Of Gwangi [1969]"
James Franciscus; DVD; £3.45


1 "Dark Angel [1990]"
Dolph Lundgren; DVD; £5.19


1 "Ladies Of The Chorus [1949]"
Marilyn Monroe; DVD; £4.97


1 "Jerry Springer - The Opera"

7th Voyage of Sinbad/Golden Voyage...; DVD; £5.98


1 "Damages - Season 1 [2007]"
Glenn Close; DVD; £7.97


(A few of these are not available in R1, such as DARK ANGEL released in the U.S. as I COME IN PEACE, and LADIES OF THE CHORUS, which was Marilyn's first leading role. The others are all cheaper than what's available in the U.S.)

this in on DVD!!!!

I saw a fantastic staging of it here in Washington DC at the Studio Theatre last summer.

Wonderful collection. Very different in tone from Scorsese's two films along this line, but no less terrific.

My latest shipment from Amazon UK:

Young Adam £3.11
People On Sunday £6.94
Fellini £12.15
The Smoking Room - Series 2 £4.97
Directed By Douglas Sirk -... £8.98
Oh! What a Lovely War: The... £2.47
Black God White Devil by G... £6.07

And the price has gone down by 4 pounds since I placed my order. Pity Amazon no longer uses price protection.

Nice price on that one. This has been a rumored Criterion forever.

Even though I already own three of the titles, at that price I'm sorely tempted to pull the trigger, despite the apparent ratio/transfer issues.

Mr. Bongo have really improved their discs as of late, and their prices are even cheaper than Second Run.

Anyone know if this set has any extras?
Also does anyone know if this set has any extras as well:
"The Powell And Pressburger Collection"
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Powell-Press...=pd_sim_d_h__1

FYI, the Russ Meyer set is R0, not R2.

The Surreal Life season 2

...And now it's back down to 1.45 again, costing me $7.00 in the meantime. Here's another order, from Amazon again:

Mikio Naruse Collection (BFI) £31.29
Alphaville £6.07
Streamers £6.93
Carnival Of Souls £8.68 (pre-order)
The Ghoul £8.68 (pre-order)

ooh, good price and unlike the US release it's not the cut R-rated version of the film.

The conversion rate from where? Your credit card company? Is there any way to pay AmazonUK directly in dollars, so that you pay the converted rate without having to pay the surcharge that your credit card company tacks on?

How severely is the US release cut? I've always held off buying it because of the cuts.

actually from what I've read, the US version has the NC-17 rated scenes in the DVD supplementary section. Why Sony released this theatrically uncut "NC-17" and then release the film cut (on home video) is beyond me.

from imdb (adult in content)

I was feeing a martial arts and asian action urge so I blind bought all of the following (except IO have previously seen Iron Monkey):
Bichunmoo - Warrior Of Virtue (2-disk SE) [2000] £4.32
Zu Warriors From The Magic Mountain [1983] £3.46
Volcano High (Special two-disk edition) [2001] £3.46
Champion (Two-Disk Special Collector's Edition) £3.45
Iron Monkey (Two-Disk Platinum Edition) [1993] £5.19
Full Contact (Special Collector's Edition)[1992] £2.59
Naked Weapon (Special Collector's Edition) (2002) £2.59
Football Factory (Special Edition) [2004] £2.59
Azumi/Azumi 2 - Death Or Love £8.07
Bang Rajan (Two-Disk Special Collector's Edition) £2.59
Initial D - Drift Racer (Two-Disk Special Collector's Edition) [2005] £3.46
Crying Fist (Two-Disk Special Collector's Edition) [2005] £3.46
New Police Story (2-disk SE) [2004] £4.33

Duelist (2-disk SE) [2007] £3.46
Red Wolf (Two-Disk Special Collector's Edition) [1995] £4.32

Total for everything, including s+H (which was over 20% of the total cost) was around $114.18. Hope these are good fun. I only bought titles with lots of special features and notice many titles have Bey Logan commentaries which is also a big plus for me.

I think many of these are HKL right? anyway. i've been meaning to pick up Bang Rajan as I have almost everything else. but these are some good prices.
