The complete French titles on the dvd is Les aventures du Cobra D'or:le temple de l'enfer.

Notice the added "The Temple of Doom" (freely translated).

Ah ok. I'm actually a little bit glad it's ARK OF THE SUN GOD as I want to see that one a bit more.

Well according to the French guys on the forum...

I'm glad it's actually ARK OF THE SUN GOD as it means I won't have to track down that elusive Italian release! But then I'm also sad because I don't think there is a release of HOTGC.

Black Widow
Call Northside 777
Dangerous Crossing
Laura.

From what i understand Laura is a classic of Noir cinema.

Now that is a fine collection.

The Japanese vhs of Hunters seems to have the best presentation (and English audio).

Found this in CEX yesterday for 50p.
I'm sure my cash starpped wallet can spare that much.

And excelent and sometimes creepy mockumentary that I have been hunting for for years.

It's not only a classic of Noir cinema, it's one of the best movies ever made. Brilliant is the word.

It's been a while since I saw Laura, but agree 100% with your comments. It's a brilliant film, superbly scripted, directed with style and knowing humour and with pitch perfect performance from the entire cast.

It's a five-star film and no one should be disappointed.

I'm very jealous, 50p! I've been wanting to see this but haven't found a cheap copy myself.
