fully agreed, and as for the rights issues i'm clueless. (though releasing a few titles myself might be nice one day, but more of a pipe dream.. getting giallo in venice out there lol!)
I just would have thought an artist such as argento would have an opinion, I know coppola overrode storaro in regards to apocalypse now.
The real tragedy is the whole affair, while not arrows fault in any way, has provided some real ammunition to its more vocal critics who I feel in the past have been massivly wrong about some of arrows releases, including inferno and bay of blood (both my favourite versions so far.)
Perhaps some legislation, requiring companies to provide full details on the films their selling so no small companies like arrow get bitten in the future?
