Here’s the breakdown on the audio for BD and DVD courtesy of Fran at Arrow:

Director’s Cut
- Italian 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio (Blu-ray) / Italian 5.1 Dolby Digital (DVD)
- Italian Stereo
- English & Italian Mono/Stereo*

International Cut
- English Mono

*This audio option is a re-assembled audio track from two sources. The English Mono audio is in its most complete form, any English audio missing was either never recorded or is lost. Any English audio not present has been mixed in with Italian Stereo audio. This is the most complete audio track available since it is likely that when Deep Red was cut down for the international (English) market they only needed English audio for this version, no other English audio has been found and also no other Mono audio. In order to preserve the original audio track we have opted to release this audio mix as it is the closest we can get to the original track.

No, we were looking for a reply with some detail.

Seriously, that's both a great answer and great news.

Many thanks.

Great stuff, Almar - there's no substitute for watching it in Italian!

Nick & I will look forward to checking it out...

It's a poor state of affairs. Cult Labs veterans will recall other titles over the years that have become snarled up in trying to get online retailers to list them right.

Arrow are aware of this and really are grateful for everyones' patience but online listings and changing them do seem to work like turning oil tankers.

I had a root about and this:

Deep Red [Blu-ray] [1975] [2010]: Amazon.co.uk: DVD

would appear to be the Arrow listing but there's no pre-order facility.

Also... Fran tells me that the release date is looking like 29th Nov - this is to make sure the commentary gets on which I think we'd all very much like!

That's only 3 weeks away. I forgot this was out so soon.

No worries...

I have Deep Red, A Bay of Blood and Battle Royale on the same order to be shipped when all products are available, so if this gets released in the same day as Battle Royale then it´s fine by me.

Wow didn't realize there was a commentary too who's it with.

Well, they had better pull their finger out otherwise I'll simply place my order elsewhere.
