Possibly not a great deal of interest in this, but nonetheless, here you are:

LOL.. I'm very interested!

Yes, it's a well below par sequel but I've always had a soft spot for it since I saw it in the cinema on it's original run. It's quite a fun 70's sci-fi thriller taken on it's own merit. I haven't upgraded since I owned the fullscreen ILC Prime DVD as the first couple of BD attempts got shot down a bit. The DVD has now gone and was aiming to be replaced by the Shout factory disc but hopefully this will be an easy alternative.

The current BD's (US, German & Australia) are all of shoddy quality. Unless there is a new scan coming can't see this being any better.

That's funny its as though I had a premonition on this was in a dream the night before and heard the theme tune to it and looked it up yesterday as I really like the theme to it better than Westworld which is also by Fred Karlin and like one of the posters I probably like this more than Westworld. I find it far more sinister.

I wonder what the quality's like Westworld on TV in HD not long back was very poor quality iven not up to standard transition and looked more like a LP video recording.

Theme and spoiler clips.

If it's half decent it'll look loads better than my old DVD at least so as long as the compression is okay then I'll grab it for the right price. I can't see a new scan for a long time as it would probably be down to an indie licensee to pay for it at this point.
