Give it a little time and Kino will have a sale and it'll be even cheaper. I'm just happy more Franco's on the way. I wish the Golden Films would get more attention from Severin.

I saw Attack of the Robots before, I had the Sinister Cinema DVD-R, and it's not a very good movie, but the print Sinister cinema used was all messed up, the framing was all zoomed in, and cut out about half the movie it looked like, I have a feeling that the movie is probably good if it were released in a good version properly framed, and not all damaged. I probably wait to see what the release is like, but if it gets good reviews, I'd probably like to see it again.Comment

Really? I think it's a pretty good movie. Interesting plot, some good dialogue and well executed on almost all levels. Maybe I'm biased because I like almost all these old Eddie Constantine flicks, but I would even say that it's one of the better ones of these. It probably looks different for a Jess Franco fan...Originally posted by Fundi View PostComment

I would say Franco peaked in the late 1960's when he was making films for Harry Allan Towers. I liked the films 99 Women, Venus in Furs, Dracula, Girl From Rio, Eugenie The Story of her Journey Into Perversion, and the others he made with Towers. I think Franco really only made bad films after Killer Barby's though. I liked most of his films up through that one, but afterwards the shot on video stuff was not so good.Comment

I think that over his film making, Franco had peaks and troughs all over the place. The late 60's early 70's contain some total classics, but I am totally in love with films spanning almost his whole career. I understand that anything post 1990 is dubious, but I always found he was at least trying something different, even in the worst SOV stuff.Comment

best thing I can say about the shot on video stuff is that hey it had Lina Romay naked :) haha, and even that might be enough to buy the dvd's lolComment

I struggle to disagree with you there, but I do like watching the SOV 'films' to spot where it looks like he founds a new feature on the camera and just had to use it to see what it did. I just like the way that despite having no money, he just shot the movies anyway.

haha Helter Skelter was a whole movie of him stuck on some effect he found in his camcorder lol, I actually though, did not mind seeing Lina Romay change into other shapes all naked lolComment

If there's anything you can almost guarantee to be present to help you through even the hardest of viewings, it's copious nudity, often of the Lina variety, lol.Comment

So Kino apparently fucked up their release of Attack Of The Robots, according to blu-ray.com's review. A shame, since I was looking forward to buying it. So now it's a pass instead I guess.Comment
