Midway (1976) TV version comes to home video (limited to 3,000)

Last edited Tue Oct 26, 2021, 05:49 PM - Edit history (1)

This is something I have waited for. The only thing missing is the footage from the Midway work print that never saw the light of day. Bad news is this is a UK release. You must have a region free OR region B Blu-Ray player to view this release. We have a region free player. The extras are an added plus. Well worth the $ we spent on it.

This was one of, I think, two movies released in Sensurround.

Our sub-woofer is pretty good for that.

Earthquake, Battlestar Galactica, and...?

The opening sequence with newsreel footage of the B25s going off the end of the flight deck with those huge speakers roaring and your seat shaking were unforgettable.
