he, he, he

I have the Making of Robocop on Beta SP PAL.

Ok, it is in french dub. If someone has a VHS tape in English, I can synchronise the english track with the picture, and We will have a perfect Making of Robocop.

I also have the same situation with the Making of Terminator I (beta SP PAL with french track)

I'd like to see the making of Lifeforce, great British horror flick (shame there's no anamorphic DVD release).

I have The Making of RoboCop normal UK PAL VHS, I've stuck it on eBay along with a pile of other old VHSs but nobody's bid on the collection yet, I could capture the VHS though if anyone wants.

Any richard edlund stuff would be great on dvd.
