Is this film available on BD? Preferably region free?

Do you like Russian horror?

I'm a fan of a few of the Ruscico releases: Viy, Father Frost, and Barbara The Fair With The Silken Hair. They have a trippy 'Wizard of Oz on acid' sort of production value to them that I love. It'd be great to have any of them on blu, but especially Viy.

Now a film on the Viy do not have Blu-ray. But he is in the list of those films that primarily have to go to HD

strom, that's great! Thanks for your efforts. I didn't know about the blu-ray of Barbara the fair. It's a shame it has no English subtitles. The cover for Viy is very cool.

Also, I emailed Ruscico and asked about the possibility of The Viy on blu ray, and their reply was "We`re thinking about blu-ray releases, but I don`t think that we will have Viy in this quality."

It is my pleasure to do so.
Back to Barbara the Fair. Missing subtitles is not the only problem with this bluray. Picture quality is lacking. Looks like upscaled dvd.
