Jess Franco - Anchor Bay DVD box sets UDATED

Jess Franco - Anchor Bay DVD box sets

Runtime corrections, plus a few other corrections.

Below are the PAL runtimes, along with the 24fps equivalent runtimes, in case anyone is interested.
I have included runtimes for all of them, but only some need correcting, or adding if they are not yet included.
If the difference is only 1 or 2 seconds, I have assumed the existing database runtimes are correct.

Jess Franco Collection Vol. 1 :


Barbed Wire Dolls (Frauengefängnis) (1976) - runtime 76:58 PAL equivalent to 80:10 (already correct)

Jack the Ripper (Jack the Ripper - Der Dirnenmörder von London) (1976) runtime 88:15 PAL equivalent to 91:56 (already correct)

Ilsa, the Wicked Warden (Greta - Haus ohne Männer) (1977) - runtime 88:00 PAL equivalent to 91:40 (needs adding)

Love Letters of a Portuguese Nun (Die Liebesbriefe einer portugiesischen Nonne) (1977) - runtime 79:39 PAL equivalent to 82:58 (needs adding)

To keep things straightforward, I have decided to provide full specs for each movie.

Notes regarding the information below:

1. There are quite a lot of corrections to be made, e.g. soundtrack, extras, notes, typos. So it might be easier to just replace everything.

2. Some of the information, especially the "Notes" sections and the details regarding BBFC cuts, I have essentially copied what was already there, with a bit of tidying up to make things more consistent across the different movies.

3. On the discs of Vol. 1, there is just one menu for "Cast & Crew Biographies and Filmographies", not a separate one for "Cast & Crew Filmographies", but I have separated them myself, to make it clear which people have no Biography, just a Filmography.

4. I am currently unable to check the region coding of DVDs, so I have used the regions already in the database.

5. Each box set consists of Slimline Keep Cases housed in a Slipbox. I don't know about the individual releases, but my guess is that they are in regular Keep Cases.

6. This is quite a lot of data to update, so if you have any questions before you proceed, please ask!

Case cover incorrectly states that a deleted scene is included.

Updated the volume 1 titles.
Won't be able to get to the rest until after the weekend.

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Updated volume 2

[Darrel_Griffin]

Sorry, I accidentally wrote the wrong runtime for:

Downtown Heat AKA Ciudad Baja

(probably because the PAL and 24fps equivalent runtimes are anagrams of each other)

I have edited my previous post to correct it. It should be:

runtime: 94:28

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Fixed
