Well I just checked out the MediaBlasters site and found this is out in a few weeks!!!!!!!! only the Argami part of the Duel Project sadly :( but it says its 80 minutes long? is that right?

anyway its at dvdsoon and I will order it as its bound to be worth it as lots of people seem to love it, its just a shame its only one half :(

Its says somewhere
Anamorphic wide screen presentation, Director commentary, ‘Making of Featurette,’ cast interviews, plus original trailers

If the commentaries in english that will be nice, as I aint into subbed commentaries :(


From Director Ryuhei Kitamura (Versus, Alive, Godzilla: Final Wars). Fleeing from enemies, a wounded samurai finds a place to rest at a mysterious temple deep in the ancient mountains of Japan. Later, the temple’s host then tells the Samurai the legend of a goblin named Aragami who resides in the surrounding mountains and dines on human flesh! The Samurai soon learns that the temple’s host is the goblin himself, and the only way to escape is to destroy Aragami!

omg this is OUTSTANDING NEWS.

I thought it was gonna get a horrible treatment like 2LDK (the better film of the Duel Project), but 2LDK has some dodgy distributor (not Media Blasters).

I will be buying this, the extras sound wonderful and sexy.

I wish... someone out there... (not Optimum) can get their mits on 2LDK for a UK DVD release.

Romero it's a short film - 80 mins is correct.:cool:

No way...

...Azumi was disgraceful. Aside from the subbed extras, everything was dreadful. Shoddy video, audio, forced subs... not to mention a cut version of the film.

IIRC they didn't do a great job with Natrual City either...
