Sounds as if they shot themselves in the foot with this. Will anyone be ordering it if they know the sequence of reels is faulty? I'd love to see it but don't feel inclined to buy it if it's a messed...

A great film. KarlHeinz Boehm was an unconventional choice for the role of Mark (and his accent was never explained) but was great in the role. The fact that he managed to make the psychopathic...
