Umbrella release dvds in new zealand as well.Under different genres like tv programs the umbrella is tuning in a tv on the logo the horror dvds the umbrella is being sliced in half by a horseman riding by...the aussie films the umbrella is hanging on a clothesline....great label

I had a collection of Umbrella logos but had to take it off. There's a new opening logo now, of Umbrella man opening up and skydiving down from the clouds. It's really cool.

My favourite is the adult movie one, of Umbrella man going into an animated house of swingers and sexual deviants!

Nice job on the Roadshow vids man, they're great watches and I remember Hound of the Baskervilles from when I was a kid as it was a different style of Roadshow release any who keep up the work.

[AussieRoadshow]

Great collection of tapes, mate! I have the House of Whipcord hardbox and it has the same artwork on the sleeve as yours. I love that film - the prison it was filmed at is very close to where I live...I'm gonna go and visit it some day!
