There's no time to pack orders as The Demon and his minions are busy restocking the store.

I ordered mine on the 7th via paypal and it says it'll be here Thursday.

Just think about how long it must take to add 3 copies of Shakma to the shelves in DF's expansive warehouse!

Ordered mine later that evening when it went live. No shipping notice yet.

What are the chances of my Dark Force order arriving since it was supposedly sent Mar. 8th and still now, the tracking # still says not yet received by the P.O.?

The last time I placed an order it took 7 days from the date I ordered for it to make any sort of movement on the tracking number.

That will teach DF to promise faster than Az speeds.

For me, it will get here when it gets here. I've plenty of other stuff to watch. Just finished the Sister Street Fighter set (the last 2 nights) and followed it up with L:VT (tonight). Next up in queue is the Monsters and Madmen set for some '50s sci-fi/horror fare.

Just this second got my shipping notice for Last Victim/Forced Entry. Ordered late on 3/6.

CC has to be written out, by hand, so I think DD saves those for last. Paypal allows him to print an automatic shipping label, already filled out, so those are easy to get out quickly. For anyone who doesn't know, you really should pay via Paypal at DF, for their ease of shipping and your ease of tracking. It's better all around. They're probably suffering over there, trying to get through 400 or so orders for LV/FE, and that's assuming they were lucky enough to have a bunch of people buying 2 or 8 copies. It could be closer to the full 500. I have trouble remembering to get to the Staples to mail one Amazon return.

As to the USPS delays, these days, USPS workers are so pressed for time, they often forget to do the origin scan. Your item could arrive, get a final delivery scan and never be trackable via the site. My favorite mail carrier commented on the issue several times, that there just isn't any time anymore. So, if you've seen no movement for a week, it is probably in transit. A couple days, it is probably in the pile waiting to go out to USPS. Either way, I wouldn't worry. DF is pretty reliable when it comes to shipping.

Well it finally shows arrived at my P.O. (the first trackable movement) so I should have it today.

I haven't gotten any kind of notification for my purchase of Forced Entry nor do I have any clue what the status is and I don't care, frankly. I'll get it when I get it. Maybe if it was something I was hotly anticipating I'd care but, meh, I simply don't.

Well, I watched it for myself last night. For those who haven't received theirs yet, watch THE LAST VICTIM cut. It feels a bit more "complete" and you're not losing any of the nastiness. It's still a grimy movie.

The FORCED ENTRY version has one added assault scene, but it feels so randomly inserted and unnecessary.

One question though:

THE LAST VICTIM runs 75 minutes
FORCED ENTRY runs 72 minutes

The IMDb and other blogs cite the run time as 88 minutes.

Obviously, I know better than to believe these sources as any kind of official word on the subject, but still wanted to know if anyone had any insight into this.

[agent999]

I believe the old UK Vhs of Last Victim was 82 minutes and that's PAL, so sped up. I feel a shitstorm a'comin'...!

[Member-222782]

An hour and 12 minutes isn't a movie - it's an extended TV series episode. WTF

Every site I’ve checked lists the running time at 88 minutes.

[iamnoone]

I have the old Harmony Vision VHS of "Forced Entry" from the US and the film
on that tape runs 88 minutes.

When two British companies were able to get my pre-orders shipped yet my copy of Forced Entry still hasn't mailed off, you know some shenanigans are happening.
