Death Sentence - Blu-ray Forum

DealsR4theDevil · 12-25-2008, 06:55 PM

It was supposed to come out 12/23.

I got an email from amazon saying they havent gotten it in stock yet and they dont know when they will. I assume the holidays had something to do with the delay but did anyone get this title at a B&M store or anywhere?

Also, to anyone who hasnt seen this movie, it is a lot of fun. It gets way to over the top at the end but the first 2/3 of the movie are gold. It also has one of the best chase scenes on foot (the one that goes through the parking garage)

Come on anyone else preorder this title?

What you ordered on Amazon is an import. They will probably get it in stock soon. When Amazon lists the studio as "101 Distribution" that means it's an import.

Import from where? As long as it plays I dont really care this movie is really good and its extremely underrated ........ I will concede that the ending is pretty ridiculous but still.

I had it, I thought it was ok, but not great.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it's a German import. It's region free though. Amazon only imports region free titles.

i thought this was a VERYGOOD movie and i highly recomend... hadnt heard of a BD release though

Sorry for reviving this post, but let me say this movie is the best Death Wish clone I've seen and I'm not including Taken/John Wick.

The Death Wish remake from 2018 was alright though this is vastly better and much more enjoyable.

Who knew Kevin Bacon could play this type of character.

9.5/10

DukeTogo84 · 01-07-2024, 09:18 PM

Hmm. I always wondered why Fox didn't release this on Blu-ray here?

HipsterTrash · 01-07-2024, 09:39 PM

Sucks that this one might remain in limbo.

mikey horror · 03-17-2024, 12:44 PM

So are none of the foreign releases the unrated cut?

Kippito · 07-24-2025, 06:08 PM

Maybe something will happen for the 20th in 2027?

elk3605 · 08-16-2025, 03:40 PM

Death Wish 3 just got a 4K announcement from Kino Lorber. Be nice if this movie could get a BD or 4K finally.

DukeTogo84 · 08-16-2025, 04:27 PM

With Disney having this who knows if this will ever get a proper release here.

Are any of the BDs worth importing?

I'm not sure as I don't own any of them. Not even sure if they include the uncut version of the film.

I’ve read they don’t. Which is why I haven’t bothered.

The French release contains the unrated cut:

I just hope you don't have a paralyzing fear of the ratings label(s) jumping off the cover to chase you into the bathroom with a sickle, or put too much cream in your coffee, or turn the A/C way down when you're sleeping.
