Don't Torture a Duckling (1972) - Blu-ray Forum

Member-222782 · 05-12-2017, 03:18 PM

I'm sure Arrow's release of the film will look great as is typical of their Blu-rays but I am a little flabbergasted there's no mention of source material. Someone on the Arrow thread mentioned there's a European 2k release available so it might be worth holding off until a comparison can be made.

Not only my favorite giallo, but Fulci's absolute masterpiece with my personal favorite Riz Ortoliani score.

I'm overwhelmed with joy.

That was me... and I might have spoken too fast. I mismatched Don't Torture a Duckling with Amuck!.

This has to be a new 2K transfer, even though the release notes don't indicate as so?

I'll have to check this one out. Only Fulci films i have seen so far are Zombie, City of the Living Dead, The Beyond, and The House by the Cemetery.

I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger on the Japanese release.

Awesome news! My third favorite after Lizard and Beyond. Technically, I believe it is his finest film. So crazy to see his career trajectory after this. This film is so far removed from his Godfather of Gore status in just about every way. Not to say the gore isn't there, cause it is.

The more Fulci blu ray the better! I heard city of the living dead is supposed to get a new release?

Thanks. But is that the special edition with booklet? Because the image corresponds to the standar edition and I would like to preorder the special edition.

There is only one edition being released.
Like all new arrow releases, only first pressings come with booklets, so if you want the booklet then order now rather than later down the line.
