I bought this a few months back from an Amazon UK Marketplace seller (LINK) but have had my doubts about its legitimacy ever since it arrived. The DVD is a proper pressed disc and the transfer is of a very meh quality and uses the old style Australian Censors logo for PG rated films but other than a 2006 copyright notice in small print on the bottom of the case for a company called "JL", there's nothing to indicate who the distributor is. I'm 99% sure this is a bootleg, because there are very similar releases on Amazon.com from the notorious Bootleggers "Jef Films" and "La Entertainment" but on the UK site there are several releases without any studio info in the description (including the one I bought), though there is 1 that claims to be from Warner Bros. (who did have the Home Video rights at one point according to IMDB). It's because I'm not 100% sure this one is a bootleg, that I created this thread in the Bootleg investigations forum . If it turns out this is a bootleg, it's going straight out for recycling and be turned into a road surface somewhere!
