    I haven't seen this movie for maybe...10 years, and I've been looking for it for about just as long! I can't believe it's so hard to find when it's such a classic! It's sad really isn't it? Maybe we should start a petition...

    Well I found another email address to pester, and have sent off another email, but email is cheap - so I plan to send an *actual* letter to them and see what happens. I also have a phone number for general enquiries, so I might ring that tomorrow and find out if this is even going to get us somewhere.

    I just came on the net, thinking of this awesome movie Hercules Returns I saw almost 10 years ago for the first time, and after searching for it EVERYWHERE, it's unbelievably nowhere to be seen on DVD!! What is this world coming too???


    RELEASE HERCULES RETURNS on DVD Pleeeeeaaaase!!!



    Well done for writing to the Film makers! Hopefully they'll realise that it is a world favourite film!

    Thanks Mark, I'll keep trying. Sorry bout any wackyness on my site as you were visiting - I get so few visitors I just update it as I feel, without testing first.


    If I get no satisfaction with the owners, I'll put up their address for everyone to write to. It's not hard to find though, so I'll put it off till I'm sure I'm getting nowhere.

    Hey give us the contact for the film and we can send emails too - and get our friends to send emails. There is about 500 websites from Australia alone with people who are looking for the movie. Maybe if you posted the contact details on the web somewhere or set up an online petition we can get them to sign on too and put some pressure on the company.


    We got a copy of the movie in the early naughties from Village Roadshow as my Dad worked there. They said at the time that no one wanted to see the movie so they were just going to give it away or throw it in the bin!!!! We've watched the movie on average about 10 times a year since then.

    I am having a Hurcules Returns theme to my Midsummer (December 21st) party this year. Being pagan, my friends we right into the idea of an old fashioned toga party, and when I mentioned H R, half of them went "Huh?" and the other half immediently began quoting various parts of this incredible film!! We are looking for it on DVD as well. Good to know we're not alone. Can't deciede whether to be Delilah, "Don't even thing about doing the next part..." , Muriel, "That's like a little Dolphin isn't it?", or the Above Average Medium.

    Hey, I think it's awesome that H R is coming out on DVD! I first saw this movie around ten years ago, when it screened on SKY Movies for a month, and it is one of my all-time favourites. Hopefully when the DVD is finally released it won't be too hard for us NZ fans to get hold of. Awesome idea to write to the filmakers by the way, it'll be interesting to see where this goes!

    I want a part of this, if it ever happens. I have the movie on VHS, however, I want a copy on DVD, if it's possible.
    I have thought about converting it myself, but an original copy on DVD would be totally awesome. If it is a petition you want, put my name down mate, I'm there with pen in hand.

    This is one hell of a movie.

    Good luck with the attempt.

    You can add me to the list too! Great to hear it might finally be available on DVD officially. Have seen the e-bay editions, however I figured if they are only rip-offs of the original VHS, which is not the best quality, it would be worth the wait for the official version.


    I contacted Village Roadshow, the original VHS release label about last year asking if it was available on DVD, the response was no, not yet and unsure whether it would be in future. Your blog is reassuring and I will definately wait, after all, it's been 10 years, what's another one!



    Add me to the list of people that want to see it on the shelves!



    Cheers and good luck, I will keep an eye on your site.

    On my first day in Oz several years back (Being a Pom) I was gifted with a viewing of this, to my mind, funniest film ever ever ever.


    I've been directed to this site having Googled somewhere to find a DVD version (I have it on VHS)



    If you're still up and running and you could give me a pointer, THAT'D BE GROUSE!!!!

    Atlantic DVD who ships internationally for 19 Aussie dollars plus shipping:


    It's region 4 however, so be warned. The quality of the transfer isn't great - in fact, someone has accused them of just ripping it from an old VHS copy, which is very probably true. You can see my review of the DVD package in my post Hercules Returns Returns!



    I hope you can get it. I love it. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment!
