Oh, good little cameo from Denholm Eliott in it too from what I remember.

Would like a blu ray release

You'd be entirely correct. It was 4 hr (with commercials) mini-series, shown over 2 nights.

Ah,WOLFEN!
A film I never tire of watching.

That cover art,simple but so effective.
This really needs a Blu Ray release.

Warner will probably use an image like this for the cover though....


Ordered!

Well done for finding all these great covers.
Early Vipco are great, but the later black covers were just pointless.
Personally i'd like to see some Palace/Medusa covers.

The covers with just writing were a bit off, i remember them being so much cheaper that i got them anyway, after the VHS crash i moved house and had to leave over 2000 VHS mainly old horror films and one of them was 'the black cat' on betamax, that had a good painted cover. I found a photo of my house with my wall to ceiling VHS collection, it's grainy but you can see eventually my room was wallpapered with VHS then the stairs became wallpapered too. haha, i had an obsession. (see photo) i will try and add some of my vipco vhs covers as i saved a limited amount of VHS that i couldn't part with. UNLESS you guys choose Medusa/Palace vhs which i have a few of too, i like all three of those distributors.

Out of that lot I would say I Never Promised you a Rose Garden is the rarest of them all to find.

I still have a few WB (approx 20 odd) The artwork on them is far superior to their DVD counterparts imo.

Yes. The covers were to a degree better than the DVD and Blu Ray covers. There's two Warner's that I would personally consider two of the rarest out there. Arsenic and Old Lace and a Nic Roeg film called Eureka. Both are probably the rarest of the rare. And both titles were released in the UK on rental big box. Eureka had a limited rental release for some unkown reason by WHV. Arsenic was released on Hollywood Gold, which was a series of titles from the classic era of Warner films from the late 1930's and 40's, Like Maltese Falcon, Watch on the Rhine, Now, Voyager, Dark Victory, Angels With Dirty Faces, Casablanca etc...


I've included some photos of my Warner Home Video collection. There's some extremely rare titles in there. Both pre and post-cert. It's taken a good 25 yrs to develop this collection, and trackdown some of the more rarer titles.
