Great video!!
I think this is a great improvement over the dvd version previously released. I was surprised at the quality of the video. Audio leaves something to be desired but overall not a bad buy. Some scenes are not that good. Especially in the beginning.

Vinegar Syndrome bluray.
Great movie, of course. That said, VS is becoming the Criterion of exploitation and other weird and wonderful - and often "lost" - films. Great features , picture, and lovingly packaged.

Good Movie
I ordered this movie for my husband who saw it years ago and wanted to buy it. He enjoys the movie and has shared it with others. Great movie about life behind bars and how one's life can change in a moment.

...and a cracking movie to boot. Well worth your cash if you like blaxploitation boxing flicks. This is also the movie with the frankly brutal in-cell beating, a shocking bit of cinema.
