When I'm at the door of whatever it is

[personal profile] spatch greeted me with the news of the death of Alan Arkin.

EMERGENCY! EVERYBODY TO GET FROM STREET!

I still need to figure out a way to give you a chance to see him up against Christopher Lee in The Return of Captain Invincible.

The "40 years ago" bit in the trailer (and movie) makes it even more appropriate to watch the movie this year, since it was released (sort of - there were distribution issues having to do with the US distributor going bankrupt, IIRC) 40 years ago as well.

After doing a bit of looking, I found out that there's apparently been a three disc Blu-Ray release that includes the movie, several interviews, a director's cut(!!), and the soundtrack on CD. (Unfortunately, it also includes really terrible cover art but I'm hoping that's just the slipcover.)

It's even on sale right now.

If you're okay with me ordering a copy for you, send me a DM with a suitable shipping address. (ETA: yes, I've already ordered myself one. :-)

A comment on my FB post led me to an Internet Archive copy of the movie. so that's another option.
