is this out on dvd or not?


love this movie. don't ask me why, i just do. anyway, i have a bootleg dvd-r and an old vhs; though both have seen better days. in another post it is stated that genius products was to release mortuary as an economy title in october of 2007. i have since been unable to find it anywhere. if anyone here can point me in the right direction i would very much so appreciate it. thank you.

I am wondering if it is coming out too. I would love to see this DVD released.

Ebay.

Mortuary Obitorio

Italian All regions PAL disc is the only official DVD release of this film.

I have a copy, full screen, certainly better than a VHS to DVDR dub, and no worse than a good VHS copy. Great thing about the Italians is they always give you the original English soundtrack.

If you love this creepy little film as much as I do it's the only way you'll get a DVD copy.

Is that dvd uncut?

reply

Another great thing about the Italians, they don't hack movies to bits, unlike the Brits and the Germans.

Yes, AFAICR, all the gory bits are still intact. I haven't compared it to my videos (US and Aust.) but it is certainly as bloody as I remember.

The italian dvd is awful. It's so dark, you can't make anything out. I have a copy from vhs and it's better than that dvd. It's bright and you can see everything unlike the italian disc.

fulfifan, your experience is vastly different to mine. I thought the DVD equal to a good unwatched VHS copy, at the very least.

You can rest your mind at last, you've resolved the horrors past...
