Which DVD is the best one to buy


WHICH DVD OF KEOMA IS THE BEST ONE TO BUY?
Region 0 PAL DVD by Another World Entertainment
Region 1 NTSC DVD by Anchor Bay
Region 0 NTSC by Blue Underground

All three dvd's claim be uncut and contain extras, Thanks for any help.

Hmmm... I'd love to see that PAL DVD. The Anchor Bay DVD is great and the extras are cool, but the print, regardless of being quite sharp, is a little desaturated, but it very well could have been filmed that way; the entire film has a bone-dry, dusty/sandy feel that works well with the color scheme. Also there is no Italian track, but the English dub is sufficient, definitely better than many other Spaghetti movies out there [ *COUGH*Contraband*COUGH* ]. I assume the Blue Underground DVD is identical to the A.B. DVD, but i haven't researched it at all.

Keoma is an incredible experience, regardless! =D

Thanks for the information and review of the Anchor Bay DVD.

I went ahead and bought the Blue Underground dvd it was cheaper priced.
And appears to have the same special features as the Anchor Bay release.

The Blue Underground release came out before the Anchor Bay one.
I don't know much about the PAL DVD though.

I've seen the comparisons of other SW DVDs on dvdbeaver, and so far the Blue Undeground DVDs have had better picture.

The Argent release is pretty good. dvdcompare dot net has it as a draw. It's R0 and has decent interview with director and Alex Cox.

Any one with any information on which releases have the option for Italian with English subs would be greatly appreciated.
