Its the French steelbook set containing:

LONE WOLF McQUADE (originally thought to be EYE FOR AN EYE and still listed as this in loads of places due to a mix up with the French translation of these film titles apparently!)
DELTA FORCE
MISSING IN ACTION
CODE OF SILENCE

When i was buying my Dirty Harry Blu Ray set the guy was putting the films in backwards fingers all over the discs he had no idea who Dirty Harry was and he said Gozu was a Sweedish film

That's quite funny, the thing is most of them are kids that have no appreciation of older films, and haven't bothered or haven't got around to exploring the classics from the 70s and 80s (never mind what came before!). They just seem to like the modern stuff. Although saying that there's one guy in my local CEX who is a big horror fan, loves Fulci and Argento and 80s horror in general so he's always ok to talk to. I think he's the exception though.

Ordering this beauty as soon as it goes live in a few hours.



In case anyone cant decode what movie it is...its A Tale of Two Sisters.
Using a new master that looks stunning! UK blu looks like dirt compared to this.
US release will use same master but wont have nice packaging like this..only downside is extras as usual have no subs.
So will wait until US disc is cheap and buy it for extras.

Very tempting. Do you know what sort of price it will go for? Has there been a release date set for the US version? Sorry for all the questions

I want this too! Been holding off buying the Tartan blu because of the supposed bad pq. One of my favorite films.

The UK Blu-ray already looked like dirt anyway, I sold it and stuck with my HK DVD. Cheers for the heads-up, didn't know about these releases coming out.

Just popped over to YesAsia to see what the regular edition was selling for, and now I've noticed half a dozen things I didn't know existed, that I now want. Ugh.
