On Febuary 28th, 2018 Wicked Vision Media released J. Lee Thompson's "10 to Midnight" from 1983 with Charles Bronson and Lisa Eilbacher as number 13 of their "Wicked Vision Collector's Series" in two Mediabooks with different artworks; Cover A features an artwork that was used on most posters internationally, Cover B was drawn by famous movie-artwork artist Enzo Sciotti and was used only once at the italian premiere as poster artwork and then never again. Both Mediabooks are limited to 666 copies each, both covers show the English(!) title, which is strange for a movie who's title was actually translated for the German cinema release (and was also used for the VHS and DVD releases). No how it was possible for Wicked Vision to use the original title instead (most of the times the labels can't due to licensing agreements), and why they decided to do so for this release, while all their other releases always feature the German title; however, as you might know if you follow my posts, I am a fan of keeping titles in their original languages (even if I cannot speak that language), so I am happy that this release does not show the German "Ein Mann wie Dynamit" (loosely translated 'A man like dynamite') on it's cover

This release comes with two audio commentaries from which one is actually in English - it is by film historian David Del Valle together with Pancho Kohner (Producer) and John Crowther (Casting Director), that is however not Wicked Vision exclusive and can also be found on English releases - the German commentary by Ralf Giesen, Ph.D., and Gerd Naumann, Ph.D. however is; all extras only feature German subtitles, movie is of course in English and German audio, but also only features German subtitles.
