I was just hoping Sony released this stateside, but I'll pick this up! Very good movie and the final film for one of the great greats

Any movie with Lee J. Cobb, Roscoe Lee Browne, Yaphett Koto and Anthony Zerbe has my interest four great actors. Would have loved a commentary track or interview with Lee Majors or Anthony Zerbe.
