Great job, ptg!!

I look forward to seeing how well this translates from Youtube to viable .avi file. Thanks for taking the time and effort to do this! :thumbsup

:) I think the quality is very acceptable. Was doing the same, converting the youtube files, result was a very nice Quicktime movie (.mov). But I was guessing that a .avi version would be preferenced.

So always worth a try to re encode files, found on youtube.

I spent a LONG time yesterday putting together and posting what I thought was an original [REL] thread for this movie, only to remember, after the fact, to USE THE F*@&^%$ SEARCH FUNCTION before posting a new thread. :eusa_doh

Anyway ... *sigh ... I thought I might as well post to the existing thread what I'd come up with, for those interested in the subject.

Good catch! The fact the newer version is a US release probably caused people not to question this. Moved.

<Bump> Any chance of a reshare? I've been stuck at 93% for awhile and my eMule has never seen a complete source.

I remember watching this a long time ago and was surprised a movie from the straight-laced 40's dared to show a bare-chested Susan Strank, let alone the 1980 version with Elva Josephson or 1991 'Return' with Courtney Phillips. This version has a lot more action and a better story than the 1980 one.

It's a cinch Elva was a much better actress than Brooke... oh wait, Brooke was acting like she was a lousy actress, so she was in reality very talented.

<Rebump> Does anyone still have this?
