I’m curious if anyone here has or saw the OFFICIAL (sic!) Turkish DVD release of the beloved “classic” “Dunyai Kurtaran Adam” (I wonder if I’m writing the title incorrectly… I’ll have to look it up after posting )? I’m curious about the quality, compared to the usual VHS transfers floating online, and I’m also wondering if it has - heh, heh - any extras…

Hah, just as I suspected when typing the above, I forgot one "y" in the title.

Here is the cover of this official DVD:

And speaking of the Turkish turkeys... has anyone, er, "preserved" them on DVD-R, doing any home restoration, etc.? The closest I came to was reencoding "Seytan" ("The Turkish Exorcist") on DVD-R with optional English subtitles, but that's because it's related to The Exorcist... Nevertheless, I was often wondering about some of the atrocities that I never saw - e.g. "Badi" (the remake of "E. T."), the "Turkish Star Trek", the "Philippino Batman and Robin" (supposedly worse than Schumacher's take) and other such ones...

I'm also wondering about the quality. I've heard alot about this and how the film stole scenes from Star Wars and music from Raiders. I know it is available on myspleen.

I'm happy to keep it in this forum.
