Bravados - Poster Gallery

Below are two re-release posters for the 1958 Gregory Peck film, Bravados.  These re-release posters from the 1960's have created a bit of revisionist history, as they elevate LVC's minor role into a starring role to cash in on his Spaghetti Western success.

VHS Flashback: Perfect Killer

Before streaming, blu-ray, and DVD, most LVC films were only available on home video cassette tapes, usually VHS (but also Betamax).  Many of us discovered these films for the first time in these formats (usually cropped and edited).


Often times due to rights issues, these films were given new titles (some similar to the original, some not).  Often the cover image of LVC was not from the actual film!

Here is a look back at the old VHS LVC video covers for The Perfect Killer!
