Member Iron_Leopard Posted February 23, 2017 Member Share Posted February 23, 2017 Has there ever been a region 1 home video release of this film? I want to own this one really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member reason108 Posted February 23, 2017 Member Share Posted February 23, 2017 No, sadly! There is only the iTunes release. I want to correct my statement. Technically there was a release of Dirty Ho on dvd back in 2001, which was released by Ground Zero. They were a "grey area" company that released Shaw titles that were taken from various sources (VHS, television, beta, etc). I had forgotten about that release when I gave my response. But, the PQ of that release was really horrible. It looked like it was taken from VHS or something, though, probably a few generations down off a Beta copy. And, it is English dubbed, so, no original Chinese audio. At least it is a widescreen print. I would go with the iTunes release over this. Plus, the iTunes release is legit.

Member masterofoneinchpunch Posted February 23, 2017 Member Share Posted February 23, 2017 For those interested I have all the R1 releases of Shaw Brother films listed here. Now I would have loved a R1 release of Dirty Ho. My first copy was a bootleg unfortunately (before I knew about the IVLs). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ITunes is better than nothing but I still want a dvd to put on the shelf you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
