The blunt answer? At 35? YES.

Already have the Criterion disc. No dice from me. Have bought this three times before (UK rental tape as Violent Streets, US LD and US DVD) so will not be buying again!

Confusingly (and bafflingly), it was called Violent Streets on its original UK release - it wasn't given its original title back until its second video release in 1999.

So that might explain it.

Must just be you they don't like. The rewards points always work for me. Perhaps you made a mistake.

I could shit out a better cover than the Criterion version. So even if the Arrow release was barebones, I'd rather have theirs .

It's the same artwork used for the LaserDisc. Granted original artwork is favourable but I wouldn't sell up and rebut of something new had it and something I already owned didn't. I'll be storing mine spine-on when I finally get them unpacked I a couple of months so it's not really of much consequence to me. The most important thing is that the film is presented on its the best version and is a quality transfer. Extras next and then artwork last. Had I not already owned the Criterion disc Id have been all over the Arrow release.

You're off the hook, then.

I think they were deducted off the postage cost for me.

Also make sure you weren't automatically logged out after proceeding a page - that could cause the price to show up without the deduction.
