Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains. Quirky film that played in endless rotation on Night Flight starring Diane Lane as the leader of an all-girl punk band.
The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu. Peter Sellers’ final film that he was actually involved in making (as oposed to the Pink Panther clip shows that came out after his death).
And as long as we’re including TV series, why Max Headroom isn’t out on DVD I’ll never understand.
Parker Lewis Can’t Lose
Duckman
The majority of The Goodies (Two “Best-Of” DVDs and a similar number of VHS cassettes don’t count, IMHO- the show ran for 10 years!)
Zulu Dawn
Monty Python’s Flying Circus (“And Now For Something Completely Different” and “Fliegender Zirkus” notwithstanding- apparently some of the seasons have been released on R1 DVD, but I haven’t seen any here in Australia yet)
A large number of '80s cartoons
Box sets of the TV series have been out in R1 for at least a decade.
AFAIK, Robinson Crusoe on Mars has never been released on either VHS or DVD.
The British TV version of Day of the riffids
Judge Dee and the Monastery Murders, or the british Judge Dee series.
Didn’t see Elendil’s Hier’s p[ost or the response to it. Unless otherwise assured, I’m assuming that Ebay DVD is a “bootleg”. I’ve seen bootlegs of other “unavailable” films, like The Star Wars Holiday Special
Les Miserables (A French Film from 1995 where the Victor Hugo story is set in World War II)
Sidekicks (You would think Chuck Norris would have enough influence to get this sucker released)
There is a region 2 version of Day of the Triffids available quite cheaply Rakuten UK: Shop Cashback deals on the best offers & savings
When, oh when?
When—will they release Kim Possible: The Complete Series?
*Becket * still isn’t on DVD.
Huh, I didn’t realize that. The only thing that Jason Alexander’s done that I would actively seek out.
Two other TV shows that I am holding out hope on coming to DVD:
Dark Skies, which is apparently slated for an October 2007 release. We’ll see.
Daria. If it ever comes out, it will be heavily neutered, stripped of all the fun music that was on the TV airings (for which I still lament the DVD release of Keen Eddie).
My brother has a Phantasm boxset with that spikey orb yokey as the box.
I saw this recently on television. It’s a great film.
Tuesday Weld’s great early 70’s work, A Safe Place, Play it as it Lays and Reflections of Muder (TV) I believe are still unavailable.
Kiss Saves Santa is still VHS only.
“The Grey Fox.” I’m still dearly holding onto my VHS version until it’s released on DVD.
Also, Roger Ebert would turn in his grave (once he dies, that is) but “North” has never been released on DVD.
*Until The End Of The World isn’t available on DVD, at least not in the US. We have it on VHS, it is such a good movie.
*The theatrical release of Bladerunner. We have it on VHS and some sort of bootleg copy of the film on DVD, since our VHS copy is not in the best condition since it has been watched so much.
They’re going to be releasing an uber deluxe edition of Blade Runner this year!
Under the Rainbow. :mad:
The pearl has been in the river FOREVER!!!
The Dead, John Huston’s version of the great James Joyce story.
Wrong region for you though.
For TV series, I’m still waiting for Spaced. at least on this side of the pond. It’s been 8 years, dammit!
