Severin Brings The Inglorious Bastards and Eagles Over London to Blu-ray

Severin Films loves them some Italian cult cinema from the 70s and so do I! I’m crazy-excited that they’ve finally jumped over to Blu and hoping for the best as they bring us the two war films that Enzo Castellari is most famous for: The Inglorious Bastards and Eagles over London (AKA Battle Squadron). I’m hoping that these are such a massive success that Severin delves deeper into the Castellari library and unearths some of his spectacular spaghetti westerns like Seven Winchesters for a Massacre and Keoma (AKA Django Rides Again). And they may find that success when Quentin Tarantino‘s “remake” of Bastards (oddly mispelled “Inglourious Basterds“) hits screens this summer, driving a desire in cinephile’s to check out the original.

EAGLES OVER LONDON
Aka: La battaglia d’Inghilterra / El largo día del águila / Sur ordres du Führer / Battle Command
(July 28, 2009, MSRP $34.95)
Video: 2.35:1 1080p

  • Another Conversation with Enzo Castellari and Quentin Tarantino – an all new featurette with the two legendary directors.

    THE INGLORIOUS BASTARDS
    Aka: Quel maledetto treno blindato / G.I. Bro / Deadly Mission
    (July 28, 2009, MSRP $34.95)
    Video: 1.85:1 1080p

    NOTE: The sticker on the package art clearly indicates that we’ll be getting another Tarantino/Castellari interview. It’s safe to assume that we’ll also see a commentary track on the disc along with a BD exclusive featurette, as on the Eagles Over London disc.

    1. One of the most amazing films I’ve seen this year, proving that Tarantino can successfully shift his spaghetti-like esthetics to historical scripts.
