Member spannick Posted October 21, 2013 Member Share Posted October 21, 2013 a) best Version is the HK Laserdisc. most likely there's some renamed bad bootlegs out on US DVD best Version is the US Laserdisc (1.85 crop from 2.35). HK LD is horrid dead center crop. any DVD? maybe bootlegs from above Version (if that good at all) c) yes, US DVD d) OS DVD, edited for Violence, LD is longer in these Scenes... so you got 3 losers and 1 winner at hand.

Member TibetanWhiteCrane Posted October 21, 2013 Author Member Share Posted October 21, 2013 Yeah, I didn't expect much. Thanks, spannick. Weird that Rock N' Roll Cop don't have a decent release, this was a much touted flick in the 90's... oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Markgway Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I believe the HK LD of RNRC has restored bloodshed but is missing a shot of a gun being pointed at a woman's crotch. IIRC, back in 1995/6 UK's Channel 4 showed the full uncut version. That's never been made available on video or disc anywhere, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I can live without that:smile: No, seriously... im not super fuzzed about minor cuts, im more interested in A/V quality. But yeah, since im mostly into collecting originals, I guess Taxi Hunter is the only one of those that are available outside of dvd-r. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Neil Koch Posted October 23, 2013 Member Share Posted October 23, 2013 Goodbye, My Friend was put out by Xenon (bootleg label) as Shanghai Killer. I have the VHS and it was one of Xenon's better releases, as it was letterboxed and subtitled. Not sure if they did a DVD though and it would probably look awful. Bonzai Media (another bootleg label) had a DVD of Stone Age Warriors. Pretty terrible sound/picture quality and had white burned on subs that are impossible to read at times. Probably ripped from the Hong Kong laserdisc Spannick mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Neil Koch Posted October 30, 2013 Member Share Posted October 30, 2013 STING OF THE SCORPION 1992 Average early 90's low budget cop action. The DVD from WA (Mainland company) is Mandarin only. 3 DAYS OF A BLIND GIRL 1993 Excellent movie. Starts out as standard T&A/exploitation (not Cat III but close) but turns into a solid suspense/thriller picture. Deltamac's DVD is decent. BOMB DISPOSAL OFFICER: BABY BOMB 1994 Good comedy, no real action scenes to speak of though. I saw this on VHS. BEYOND THE COPLINE 1993 Very average undercover cop movie, with the one thing of note being a very nasty rape scene where Anthony Wong uses a cucumver on his victim. Also saw this on VHS.

Member TibetanWhiteCrane Posted October 30, 2013 Author Member Share Posted October 30, 2013 Thanks, Neil... so # days is the only one with a decent dvd release. Damn, 2013 and HK movie fans still have to settle for LD rips and such. Mainstream movie fans have it so easy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
