Does anyone have, or know if it's available, a DVD of the film Red Sun starring Charles Bronson and Toshira Mifune, I have it on Video but would like to replace it with DVD, but can't track it down. Any info would be appreciated.

Lead, Follow or get out of the way!

I have two suggestions:

(1) You can search for Red Sun periodically on the DVD Price Search site to see if a retailer has the DVD in stock. According to this site, Red Sun was released on DVD by two different companies. The site lists one current retailer, but when you go to that retailer's site they indicate that Red Sun is no longer in stock. DVD Price Search is a great resource for finding DVDs online at the lowest available price. http://www.dvdpricesearch.com

(2) Put in a request at Videoflicks.com to be notified by email if the title comes in. If one does, it most likely will be a used copy. http://www.videoflicks.com/titles/1017/1017353.htm?SHOW=1&TYPE=0&ASSN=V00001&ESID=XUUXUCXKXXECCEGRCTE

By the way, of the two DVD releases of Red Sun listed on the DVD Price Search site, I would definitely go for the Fox release rather than the one from United American. The latter company has a reputation for putting out lousy transfers.

Good luck!

Someone is selling it on Amazon - $45 !!!

The item on Amazon looks like it might be the same Brazilian release (albeit in English evidently) that is available on eBay in a number of auctions, including a Buy-It-Now from an American seller for $26.00. I have no idea what the quality of this DVD would be, but the sellers claim it is not a bootleg. Go to eBay and search for "Red Sun Bronson DVD" and check the box for searching titles and descriptions (or try the link below). Research the Brazilian sellers carefully before you buy from one of them. Jude, I assumed you already had tried eBay, but I guess you did not. Oli, thanks for turning up the Amazon item. Good luck to Jude once again.

Thanks, Oli and TeeJay,
I had found one Brazilian seller, not the one in your search, they are both Power sellers and I checked feedback and have sniped the one I found (who BTW is much cheaper) but no info on which release they are, Fox or United American, I gather that the Fox version is much the best.
Both Brazilians are selling the same DVD, so will watch with interest to see how the price goes on the one I'm sniping, at the moment it is only $9.99. Thanks for all your help.
Maybe you can help me again, I am after a film that I can't remember the name of (helpful, eh) It is about a guy who gets chased by a truck, whos driver is never seen, I thought it was called "Driver" but the search doesn't bring up anything so maybe I was wrong. It starred Dennis Weaver as far as I remember.
I also want a DVD of "K9" about the GSD Police dog, and can't find that either, I put in a search for that and keep getting "Dr Who" all the time, Oh dear, it's a hard life isn't it

Lead, Follow or get out of the way!

The film with the truck chasing Dennis Weaver is "Duel." It was a 1971 made-for-TV movie directed by Steven Spielberg (his first effort I believe). There are a couple of retailers listed on DVD Price Search.

I can't help you on the other one.

The movie that has James Belushi?

Did a search on Internet Movie Databaseand plugged in K*9. Came up with a few searches.

Not sure if these are what you are looking for. If you could remember the name of actor/ess, you could most likely find it here.

There really isn't anything that this database does not have. Indy, TV, Video or Movie - wise.\
