Does anyone know when they are going to release The Killers Are Challenged (077, sfida ai killers)?

One thing I don't get. The subtitles - are they all non-removable or just the Finnish? Either way that's a dealbreaker for me. Unless that's a misprint I won't be getting this, though I like this movie quite a bit.

FDS-Magnus told me the forced subtitles were required by the rightsholders, who think the films are worth a fortune and want to keep selling them around the world.

If that's a dealbreaker, i'm sorry to say it but you got way too high standards, dude! Just be glad an indie company is taking a chance with an obscure (and very good) giallo. If the other FDS disc are any indication it will look good too.

It's too high a standard to not want three different languages I don't read taking up the bottom third of my screen? Especially for something that will run me $20 at least? If that doesn't bother you, then your standards are way too low.

No, only one language you don't read. I've got a few german DVD:s which are like that at it's not a major problem to me - it's like watching dutch or greek video tapes, you stop stop thinking about the subtitles in one minute, if at all. Seriously, not a big problem, a mild annoyance at worst. Now if the transfer should be sub par, i'd be annoyed too...

To the best of my knowledge there are no dvd's that have multiple subtitles unless they are burnt in like on some HK dvd's. There's only going to be one set of subs on the screen. Not three. Besides, subtitles are easy to get rid of. You can make a subtitle free copy with DVDshrink.

So, only Finnish subs? That's weird. Oh, are they a Finnish company? For some reason I thought they were Swedish. I can and will watch something with foreign subtitles, if I have to. But for an imported DVD? Of a movie I've already seen? No thanks. I'll wait for a more English friendly release.

No one is forcing you.
It will have burnt in swedish subs and english language, this is like Lars stated for contract reasons (only licenced for Sweden/Scandinava or something like that).
I think Magnus/Fds is doing a great job with these dvds, it´s very much a labour of love you know, no big buiseness enterprise. Don´t know when KILLERS ARE CHALLANGED will be out, i´ll ask him next time i see him (was some time ago now).

The subtitles on the previous Fin de Siècle Media releases are in the black bars below the picture Jared and so will the case be on this one too I have been told. So you don't have to bee annoyed by any subs taking up the picture itself.
