I bought this DVD a few weeks ago from www.takealot.com and got it yesterday. Good fun as I remember sneaking into the cinema to see it wayy back when and it seems that the DVD releasing company got hold of the original film master and used that, instead of one that was all used and tired. It is IMO way better than the Tarantino version and besides, the people who made the 1977 version can spell the word 'inglorious'.  Wink

This movie has some hilarious moments.  I originally saw it on HBO or Showtime back in the 1980s, then I bought the DVD a few years ago. 


I enjoy the "secret password" scene:

Man #1: "Happy days . . ."

Man #2: ". . . are here again."

Yup.  There's no way the enemy could crack that rock-solid security system.

Was Tarantino's version a remake of this or did he simply re-use the title as a homage? And I think the misspelling of "Bastards" in Tarantino's film was intentional, possibly to distinguish it from the original.

Tarantino doesn't do remakes, but he's all about the homages. That's his schtick. When I watched this version, thinking that it was the original version to Tarantino's remake, I was surprised when I saw that the two films are almost nothing alike. This version is actually better than Tarantino's movie!

I haven't seen this in a while, but it is a very different film than "Inglourious Basterds" (2009).  The original 1977 film is very similar to "The Dirty Dozen" (1967).  I remember enjoying Fred Williamson's performance, but believe he somehow survives and that him survivor struck me as an odd outcome at the time.

IMDb shows a 1978 date for Inglorious Bastards.  Was the 1977 a typo?

Andrew: my DVD has a 1977 copyright date and then a 2009 DVD release date.  Smile

It was probably copyrighted in 1977 and released in 1978.  Although, for this movie, no one really cares . . .
