Eagles Over London

WWII Epic From Writer/Director of Original INGLORIOUS BASTARDS Includes Tarantino Bonus Features

LOS ANGELES, CA– Severin Films today announced the first-ever DVD/Blu-ray release of the WWII epic Eagles Over London. The 1970 hit was the international breakthrough film by Italian action master Enzo Castellari, best known as the writer/director of the original INGLORIOUS BASTARDS which will also be released on DVD and Blu-ray by Severin on October 13th.



Eagles Over London is a terrific film with one of my favorite storylines ever, Quentin Tarantino said at the film's Los Angeles premiere in 2008. You're in for a real treat! Exclusive bonus features on the disc include footage of Tarantino hosting the film's premiere in Eagles Over Los Angeles, plus the candid and revealing "A Conversation with Quentin Tarantino and Enzo G. Castalleri Part 2" and more.

Nine years before his classic BASTARDS, Enzo Castellari virtually invented the 'Macaroni Combat' genre with this over-the-top saga of valor, vengeance and machine-gun mayhem starring Hollywood legend Van Johnson (THE CAINE MUTINY) and Frederick Stafford (Hitchcock's TOPAZ) as military officers pursuing a team of Nazi saboteurs through war-ravaged London. For this landmark international production, Enzo would re-create the evacuation of Dunkirk with 2,000 extras on a beach in Spain as well as the Battle Of Britain on a soundstage in Rome. "Almost 40 years later, says Enzo, Severin's restoration and release of my first major film is both tremendously satisfying and humbling."
