Pit Stop [1969] - Arrow (2014)
The newly commissioned 'artwork' by the talentless Jay Shaw, is so utterly crap and worthless that I saved the artist's embarrassment by not uploading it.

Blanche - Arrow (2014)
The first 5 Borowczyk Bluray/DVD titles published by Arrow were being offered in a limited boxset along with a thick book on the directors work, special pre-release order price £80 (I think), so I quickly placed my order and got the confirmation. However, the boxset was delayed, and the titles got released individually, and the boxset was still delayed, and the individual titles had been out a while and were starting to get discounted, and the boxset was yet still delayed, and the individual titles were now in danger of being deleted, and did I say the boxset was still delayed, and then the individual titles hit the Fopp shelves at around £8 each, and the boxset STILL hadn't arrived. I cancelled my order and bought the individual titles from Fopp, and just in the nick of time as they were getting deleted. But what about that boxset, the one that was supposed to have been available before the individual titles got released, ...well I did hear that it eventually got released and people now try to sell it on ebay for quite a few £££, but why shell out just to get a book.

The Big Heat [1953] - Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (2005)
Since this disc is already added to the database (twice), I feel that adding details again is just a duplication of work. The only thing that really changes on these European (region 2) DVDs from major distributors such as Sony is the slip, in this case with the text in English. When you put the disc in the dvd player it is going to ask you to select a country, of course it is, it's the same disc that is packaged whichever country you purchase it in!

Contes Immoraux - Arrow (2014)
The bonus features promises to include both versions of the scandalous documentary about vintage erotic artefacts "A Private Collection (1973)". Known as the Oberhausen cut the uncensored version includes animation/photos of banned sexual practices, however it seems that Arrow were unable to get this passed by the BBFC without censorship, so instead we are presented with the full length version but with a blanked out screen whenever an offending image is due to appear.
Note: the accompanying bonus interviews and features reveal that many of the 'vintage' erotic artefacts are nothing of the sort because they were made by Mr Borowczyk himself, however he had such skill in craftsmanship that the items do actually look genuine.

Robbery - Network (2015)
Robbery is restored from the original film elements and presented in the correct 1.66:1 picture format.
The bonus film "The Great British Train Robbery" is the cut-down cinema release of the German TV mini-series Die Gentlemen Bitten Zur Kasse, it is the English dubbed version and is still watchable despite being in relatively poor shape (the original film elements are lost).

The Big Combo - Arrow (2018)
Exceedingly uninspired new artwork by Scott Saslow, it's about time Arrow stopped commissioning rubbish like that.

The Killers [1946] - Koch Media (2014)
Great picture and sound. I had the original Criterion double DVD but found the picture a little too bright and the sound was very hissy, I had the UK Film Noir 'cigarette' boxset version and found the picture a little dark, I had a good one from Denmark which I would have kept if I hadn't got this one (it came in a boxset). So this is my preferred DVD.

The Best Of Beavis And Butt-Head: Butt-O-Ween / Beavis and Butt-Head Do Christmas - Time-Life Video (2002)
The Time-Life collections were sold cheaply in the USA, supermarkets and the like. They were essentially just budget dvd editions of the popular video tapes, coming out when dvds were just beginning to get popular and video tapes were being phased out.
There were originally 5 Beavis & Butthead '2-fers' and a singular "Hard Cash" which has longer running episodes but less episodes in total. Some time later a double dvd "History of..." was released which was not properly authorised and got withdrawn very quickly making it a very desirable collectors piece.

The dvds are actually multi-region, I have 6 of them (alas not "History Of.."), and as far as I can ascertain the animated stories are uncut, unlike the approved Mike Judge collections, where dialog is often trimmed and whole scenes missing. However, as usual the episodes do not include music video segments with B&B's comments, if that bothers you.

The dvds were sold individually, the 6 originals make up a series, not a boxset.
