Any signs of DVD with original music restored?


SCORCHY must be destined for DVD release someday, right? Well, let's hope so. I hope that when it comes out it has the original music restored (Igo Kantor's, not the synthesizer music on the Lightning Video release). I presume that for release to video there was some snafu in securing the rights to the music (or something like that). This sort of soundtrack replacement has happened before (WITCHFINDER GENERAL's release to video being one of the most notorious examples). I can only hope that when SCORCHY finds its way to DVD it will be using the best possible film elements *and* with the original music restored.

I just saw it on a DVD made from the old VHS which was pretty decent but it needs to be restored. It is a campy movie. The acting is bad but the action chases scenes are actually pretty good for the era. Connie looked great! She had a nice natural rack!
