Have you seen it before? I must admit I'm not the biggest fan of Eurocrime movies but I like docs about movie genres

I ordered it from HMV but it hasn't been shipped yet. Not a preorder, i only went for it on Sunday night. The item i ordered alongside has been shipped though.

I was in town this morning and went to HMV to get the Eurocrime! DVD, but couldn't find it. I asked a member of staff and he went straight to the World Cinema section, where he found it without any problems! I suppose that's the downside of not having a 'Documentary' section, but the upside of staff who know what they're doing.

I'll check again this evening, our shop does have a Doc section but it wasn't in there, I presume it was in the Italian section? Unless your store just has 'World Cinema' but ours is divided by country.

Just ask a member of staff. They tend to know where things are. At least they do in the Manchester branch and the store Nos visited.

The one in town is presumably World Cinema because it isn't big enough to be divided into separate sections according to country of origin!

As Demdike said, do what I did and ask someone who will either find it on a shelf or go into the storeroom and bring you a copy.

Bought Tony Scott's The Hunger (HMV exclusive) today. Already watched it and I have to say that the blu-ray's PQ is outstanding. Was surprised by just how good it was. Highest recommendation.

They managed to find The Sadist Baron Von Klaus for me in Manchester when i couldn't even remember what it was called.

I felt quite foolish. "There's this film, it's a new release, i can't remember what it's called, sadistical something or other" was how the conversation began. I can sense Justin cringing already.

The Hunger is quite possibly my favourite Tony Scott film and the Blu is sublime.

A different animal for sure, but you should really check out the TV series too, SF.
