SHAM032 - Almost Human: The DVD Specs SHAM032 - ALMOST HUMAN http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h2...LAR-GIF-02.gif Maestro of mayhem Umberto Lenzi (Cannibal Ferox, Oasis of Fear) takes you on a tour of Italy's mean streets with this hyper-violent, ultra-sleazy, 1970s crime classic. Shameless Screen Entertainment proudly presents Almost Human restored and uncut. Tomas Milian (Designated Victim) stars as Giulio Sacchi, an unhinged petty crook who aspires to criminal greatness. With his gang of assorted weirdos, Sacchi shanghais the pretty young daughter of a wealthy businessman, but hardboiled cop Grandi (Henry Silva - Escape From the Bronx) is in hot pursuit. The dogged detective is all that stands between the gang and the ransom but he'll need to be quick because his dastardly foe may not be able to resist the nubile body of his teenage hostage! Almost Human is a fast-paced Lenzi crime thriller that features music from Ennio Morricone and a level of sleaziness that's atypical for the genre. If you like your cops badass and your villains badder, this is a high octane, edge-of-the-seat experience you will not want to miss! * synopsis by Paul Alaoui Special Features

Really looking forward to this, never seen it before. Think i will incorporate the Shameless complete trailers into the viewing along with another film, maybe Bare Behind Bars and have a great grindhouse experience. |
Good to see that the lenticular sleeve is a limited edition. Will become a real collectors piece for sure |

Haha, panic was probably a slight exaggeration on my part, though to be fair when I read that the 'Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide Limited Edition' was close to selling out I panic-bought my copy! I was always going to buy it anyway but the thought of missing out on a numbered edition with the art cards didn't bear thinking about. So are we any closer to seeing the alternative covers on this one or have I missed them already? |

I'm really warming to these Shameless fan edition releases and despite already owning No Shame's U.S. AH DVD (still sealed like many other titles i have!:blush:) i'm only too happy to indulge in this new and typically lovingly packaged U.K. contribution with my mandatory two copies previously pre-ordered as usual. Keep 'em comin' Shameless and we'll keep on buyin'!:nod: |
Pre ordered mine last week. I am looking forward to it very much as I have never seen this one,& usually love Lenzi's work. Also Love Panel B on the artwork thread for this. |
Almost Human is out on Monday so, if you haven't already, why not pre-order from your preferred e-tailer? |
Already pre-ordered Sarah ;) |
Shameless have given word that almost all of the first 1,000 units have sold on the first day of release - a first for Shameless! ALMOST HUMAN: OUT NOW! |
My copy arrived this morning & I am happy to report I own one of those 1,000 units,woohoooo |

I really wanted to grab a copy because it was a limited edition one but for £20.... ouch! :( Sent from my HTC Wildfire using Tapatalk |
just bought my limited edition from hmv here in town, they had 2 copies, was a bit steep at 20 quid, but am hoping the film will be worth it.......from what i have read, it will be. |

Good news for the label.:nod: I'd be using the cover B panel anyway.:) |
3 Attachment(s) Recieved my copy today and it has the lenticular sleeve:woot: I have lots of films to catch up on before I watch this so I wasn't going to open it. But I thought I would take a few pics to let others see how the lenticular fits with the others. |
Thanks for the photos Mercury. :thumb: |
whats up with the echo on the sound on the english track? the music score is ok, but the dialogue has an echo and when a line has been delivered it sounds flat and silent/ |

Received yesterday, no lenticular sleeve, so much for pre-ordering a month in advance, thanks Amazon! Grrrr |
Just received mine 5 mns ago, with the lenticular sleeve :cool: |
Watched this one last night and thought it was terrific. I'd be well up for more Euro-crime from Shameless. Excellent quality print, too. |
Wonderful film. Thomas Milian is a complete headcase and Henry Silva was, well, Henry Silva! |
Watched the Italian version of this last night - terrific stuff! Well done, Shameless :clap: |
HMV surprisingly had 6 copies in store today. I think it's the first time they've actually bothered to stock a Shameless title on the week of release. |
The picture quality is STUNNING! And to see this in a lovely 'scope print, I never realised how superb that opening car chase sequence actually was! |

It's not overly noticeable on speakers but definitely comes out over headphones. |

Interesting to see that the trailer uses alternate takes to the film itself - more nudity and longer shot of car theft and also slow motion shot of the car chase. |
Some of the car chase - like the car going through the flaming boxes - is from Sergio Martino's THE VIOLENT PROFESSIONALS. |
