Default Mondo Film

These aren't everyone's cup of tea but I'm a huge fan of Italian Mondo, particularly the works of Italian originators Jacopetti & Prosperi. Thankfully their filmography is widely available on a few different labels, though arguably the definitive releases are by Blue Underground and Camera Obscura (for Mondo Candido).

Later additions to the Italian Mondo catalogue by the Castiglioni bros and Climati have not really seen the light of day on DVD with the exception of a few Japanese/eastern releases in the early 2000s and a few cut versions of Savage Man, Savage Beast (also a Thai uncut DVD release I believe). Of course I'd like to be proved wrong, anyone know of any other releases that have slipped under the radar?
