New Zealand Feature Films on DVD - July Update at NZVideos.org
Charles
Athina Tsoulis' latest feature, 'Jinx Sister' has arrived on dvd and
information has been added, including a two minute clip of the
original soundtrack. Special notice: the complete 1987 feature, 'The
Leading Edge', with Billy T. James, can now be viewed in its entirety
on-line. Three more films have been added - two low budget, first
feature efforts, 'Gupta vs Gordon' and 'Taking the Waewae Express',
and a major NZ/UK co-production, 'Dean Spanley'. If you can only see
one of them, make sure it is 'Dean Spanley', as this is clearly the
best of 2008 New Zealand releases that is now on dvd , although so
far, only on R2 PAL. However, given that the lead actors are, Jeremy
Northam, Sam Neill, Bryan Brown and Peter O'Toole, I think you can
guess that it might be worth your time.
A link is now provided to the trailer of Nikki Caro's forthcoming
feature, 'The Vintner's Luck' and a sneak peek of 'Under the Mountain'
is also now available. You will also find the database contains
updated pricing on dvds, including U.S., UK, AU and NZ. I still need
to complete some pricing on Lord of the Rings, as there are so many
variations of those titles. BTW, the trilogy Blu-ray theatrical
version release date has been set for 3 November 2009. Yes, they are
doing it again - there will be no extended edition Blu-ray version at
this time. The estimated date for that will be late 2011.
Details on this and all things regarding New Zealand feature films on
video and dvd, plus their associated soundtracks, with trailers and
soundtrack samples, can be found at the non-commercial, advertising

Enjoy,
