Brotherhood of the Wolf

[pro-bassoonist]

Actually, Arkadin, there are only a couple of discs that are Region-Free (Escape from New York is one of them). The other, including the ones you mention above, are not - they are "locked" to Regions A/B. So, if you live in a Region-C territory, let's say India, and have only a Region-C player, these would be unplayable (both "Le mepris" and "La Haine" are "locked" to Regions A/B).

As to the UK release of Brotherhood of the Wolf being playable in the U.S., we would have to wait and see - if it turns out to be one of those multi-region releases, covering Japan, which is a Region-A territory, then yes, it will be playable in the U.S. (Note: Many of Canal's recent catalog titles have been encoded like that).
