That's really strange. No problems with my copy either.

Just checked and it's not playing on my Sony blu ray player either. This is the third 88 films blu ray that I can't get to play ( the other two being TOURIST TRAP and ESKIMO NELL ). I thought at first it was my player, but I've had no problems with any other BDs, so now I'm wondering if it's a fault with some of 88's discs?

Is it a oldish player might be as simple as needing firmware updated

Yeah - it's about 4 or 5 years old, so a firmware update was something I'd been considering. I thought it was weird it was all discs from the same company, but I'm guessing that's not unusual?

It could be a firmware issue. When did you last update your player?

No they might be using some format that's newer and older players have problems

Cheers for the info, treb. I' ve never updated the player, so it looks like that could be the answer

Not rubbing in it or anything but thats why i use a PS3 as my main blu-ray player, updates all the time.

It is an excellent Blu-ray player and media centre, but I'm really glad I have my cheap Blu-ray player set to Region A for the Criterion and other North American region coded discs.
