The young bank robber Kid staggers exhausted across an inhospitable scree, in the middle of the blazing furnace of a desert. All he has is a filthy suit, a machine gun, a suitcase full of money and a bullet stuck in his arm. Due to the loss of blood, he collapses unconscious in the scorching wasteland, and that's how former warden Charles Dump, a greedy, devious coward who senses a very big opportunity, finds him. Instead of removing the bullet, he speculates that Kid will die in agony from the gangrene, and a murderous game of cat-and-mouse ensues between the two opponents. But the tide turns for the worse when a short time later, the sadistic killer Mr. Sunshine appears on the scene, who has arranged with Kid to hand over the money. And Sunshine has no intention of sharing the loot....

Don't know much about this film. $37.99 seems steep.

Same (and will stick with it), but interesting at any rate. Didn't check thoroughly at all, but the disc appears to be the exact same, right?

Yes, a VS rep confirmed on Facebook that the discs are the same.

Definitely cost more to import it! Think of it that way, a few of us imported it and it was probably 50ish so this is a bargain

Yepppp, and since I'm a VS subscriber this version only would have cost me $30. Oh well, I think I prefer the German art and packaging anyway.

Art definitely IMO, packaging not so much in my case, because I don't like digis. (and/but the German one was cheaper for me of course )
