Apparently not, I was also hoping for a special edtion of Nightbreed but now that it's an MOD title I take it that's not going to happen

What, exactly, is Yor Hunter From the Future, sci-fi? Fantasy?. The plot sounds interesting enough but I'm limiting blind buys to pressed product for the most part, especially at these prices. The director, Anthony Dawson aka Bruno Mattei, isn't exactly known for making a lot of fine films but if this is passable entertainment I'm willing to pick up a copy if there's a decent sale.

Shawn Francis · 09-22-2011, 05:26 PM

The memory I have of it is very vague, since I saw it in my freshman year of high school, I think. It DOES, however, fall into the scifi/fantasy category. I'm not a particular fan of it. Someone told me it's actually a mini-series from Italy, and was cut down to movie length and released theatrically.

No, the director of Yor was not Bruno Mattei. He had nothing to do with the film at all. Anthony Dawson is a pseudonym for Antonio Margheriti.

The movie is a blend of fantasy and science-fiction. The first half of the film is pure caveman fantasy while the plot gradually develops into sci-fi. It's a cult film that you'll either love or hate. It just 80's Italian cheese at it's core.

It was indeed originally conceived as a 4-hour TV version, which apparently exists in Italy (Italian language only), though few have ever seen it.

The trailer on 42ND STREET FOREVER 4 didn't do anything for me, and if I remember correctly the fellas on the commentary weren't kind to it either. It did look like an awkward mish-mash of fantasy and scifi.

It is nice to see WB Archive selling such things as Trog and Demon Seed. Ones I picked up in the past year for $3 at Big Lots on pressed DVDs, not DVD-Rs!!
