Widescreen DVD coming in January, 2008!!


There is an anamorphic widescreen (2:35-1) DVD of this film coming out on January 29, 2008. The color is quite a bit better than all previous DVD releases, and the film looks great in widescreen! As a bonus, the Retromedia DVD will also feature another widescreen Steve Reeves film, WAR OF THE TROJANS (aka THE AVENGER, aka THE LAST GLORY OF TROY). I can't wait, an anamorphic Steve Reeves double-bill! The Retromedia disc is entitled "The Steve Reeves Collection," and contains both full-length films.

I rented the dvd from netflix, with this film coupled with "The Last Glory of Troy", and I hate to have to come back and report that the film was not presented in widescreen... only the credits sequence is widescreen. I haven't checked on the other film yet but I assume it's the same. However the dvd that I rented wasn't titled "Steve Reeves Collection" but rather "Gods of War." Perhaps you're talking about a different one, but if so netflix does not have it.

Did I not love him, Cooch? MY OWN FLESH I DIDN'T LOVE BETTER!!! But he had to say 'Nooooooooo'

for little money.also character reeves played died on way to sparta and
never was in the war.but his name lives on because he was greek's
