I think the only thing that puts me off it is that some of it is still lost. I think it's the ending? So basically you get told how it ends or something.

Yes, according to this review they get around the problem of the missing ending (which cuts out during the middle of a climactic foot chase) by cutting to Grefé himself popping up on the screen to explain the story resolution, complete with new hand-drawn ink storyboards to illustrate the action.

I'm going to make a film like that and release it on Blu-Ray with a 5-minute runtime.

'Sorry, I lost the whole film but this is what happened...'

At least it'll be me talking in HD.

Barebones too.

Actually, maybe I'll do a commentary of what was supposed to happen and how it was shot. Non-scene specific.
Pete and Susan Foreman like this.

What a shame...should have put the money towards a HiDef remaster of Mako instead!

I've never seen MAKO.

Only film of his I've seen is DEATH CURSE OF TARTU, which is the worst film I've ever had the misfortune of watching. Even worse than RATMAN, SS EXPERIMENT CAMP, JIGSAW, PLAN 9 and the BOND films. ****ing terrible!

Have you any idea which films One 7 have released up to now Pete?.

I find them really difficult to find in an Amazon search.
