Fred Anderson of Ninja Dixon blog has just uploaded the trailer for his upcoming DVD release of THE KILLER ELEPHANTS (Thailand, 1976). Fred has recently launched a one-man company entitled ATTACKAFANT ENTERTAINMENT and besides THE KILLER ELEPHANTS Fred has also bought the rights for THUNDER OF GIGANTIC SERPENT (1988).
These DVDs are not bootlegs or public domain crap but official DVDs.
ATTACKFANT is based in Sweden and the two DVDs will carry English dubs. You'll find their Facebook page here.
And here's an old upload (from someone else) of THUNDER OF GIGANTIC SERPENT. Obviously, the uploader copied it off the IFD homepage and the picture quality ain't too happening but you'll get an impression of this crazy movie. The bad quality is of course not representative of how the new DVD is gonna look.
I got about halfway through SERPENT before shutting it off. It seriously gave me a headache. Granted, the copy I have isn't the best. I do plan to try it again at some point. Speaking of snakes, have you seen the Japanese DVD of CALAMITY OF SNAKES and if so, does it have English dub or subs?
ReplyDeleteA headache? Oh really, haha. I've never watched either of the two films so I have no idea what I'll think of them.
ReplyDeleteI don't have the Japanese DVD of CALAMITY but I remember seeing a scan of it and thinking it had the same cover as the VHS that has Japanese subs with Cantonese audio. I have the VHS. There's also another Japanese VHS that carries the English dub but whether that one was released on DVD I don't know (I wouldn't think so as I'm sure I would have heard about it - but of course you never know).
