Looking for a rare movie-Take it away SSS

[Spock]

"Shangani Patrol" -I believe it was a South African movie-circa 1970. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0367031/

Can't find it on the usual suspects-Ebay, Youtube, etc-Not sure if it was ever released on video or DVD. Seems to be widely panned, but I don't care.

Found it doing preparation Googling for the upcoming holidays. Not Christmas, in my case, but Isandlwana/Rourkes's Drift Day-January 22/23-(LOL)-The holidays are extra special in the Spock household this year with the upcoming release of The Splendid Savage, a new Frederick Russell Burnham biography on January 25. The kids are really looking forward to it.

Spock:

The movie can be found on DVD. Here's a couple of places that advertise it:

There's been some favorable feedback about the version that's sold by Memories of Rhodesia. I think these are DVD's and that they aren't bootlegs, but it would probably be a good idea to check and also to check and see if it's in a format that's compatible with your equipment. Movies like this turn up on Ebay from time to time, but that's very hit and miss.

I hope this helps.

By the way, the cast includes Will Hutchins, TV's Sugarfoot. His show alternated with Cheyenne and Bronco on TV around 1960.

Thanks. I see it listed as both PAL or NSTC-which kind of equipment am I most likely to have?

NTSC is standard North American equipment; PAL is in Europe. If you bought a DVD player from any standard retailer, it's NTSC.

You could just read the web page.
