OVER
THE TOP –OST surprise
click
for larger image
Don’t worry, that’s not
me! I decided to take a listen to the Over The Top (1987)
soundtrack CD as I liked that song and tune in those Cannon promo trailers
and the whole album’s
very good. A bit 1980s for sure (reminded me of
Willaim Freidkin’s To Live and Die in L.A.) but still a top notch listen and highly recommended.
The main song of course
is from Sammy Hagar with
Winner Takes It All here
Check out the
trailer which has a few
tunes in it. Also have a look at the German Over The Top (1987) trailer here It’s interesting as it’s got a different tone
to anything
I’ve seen so far. I
enjoyed the music so much I’m going to watch the film again –it’s been 2
decades!
“Over
the top, Dad!”

I wasn’t sure if this little

RARE CANNON
click for larger image
click for larger image
I try not to use the
word “rare” but these certainly are. Especially that Norwegian cover of Raoul
Ruiz’s Treasure Island (1985) featuring
Martin Landau and a very
young Melvil Poupaud .
The film and all information about it seems to have fallen off planet earth. Corleone
(1977) is another Cannon distributed film which can be
easily bought on DVD
but it’s the Cannon artwork which is rare. A massive thank you to filminteressert and Lazer for these great
scans. Added to the A-Z
IMDb.

I’ve
received so many brilliant Cannon images donated from these great countries
they deserve their own gallery. So if you’d like to add some please get in
touch.
You can
upload images to http://allyoucanupload.webshots.com (email me the links) or email
the images if you prefer. If
the images are very large it’s usually best
to send
them one at a time. Email if unsure.

GRANDE POSTER
click for larger image
Strange poster from
France. For the excellent 52 Pick-Up
(1986) with the late great, Roy
Scheider. Posters released in France are
of the size known as
“grande”. Sized at
approx 47" x 63" (metric approx: 1.2m x 1.6m). More about European
posters @ www.moviepostercollector.co.uk/eu_posters.html

CANNON / NEW WORLD -The Boys Next Door (1985)
click for larger image
That’s a really nice bit of artwork from the UK quad poster. A “quad”
poster is 40” x 30” (“=inches”) or in metric, approx 1010mm x 760mm. Cannon
distributed some New World
Product in the UK at the cinema including Black Moon Rising (1986). Black Moon Rising
(1986)
made it to Cannon Screen Entertainment home
video but The
Boys Next Door (1985) didn’t and ended
up with CBS/Fox. Cannon’s home video division (Cannon Screen
Entertainment) was sold off. Other titles include The Quiet
Earth (1985) (again moved to CBS/Fox). You’ll find
a page on TQE
on the main menu. If you have any info on Cannon/New World please get in touch.
I’m
going to get some better pictures of my posters and make a new gallery. The
posters were all folded (UK posters always seem to be -messy) so I intend to
flatten them a bit and then roll them. Easier
to store
and view in my opinion.

CANNON / 21ST CENTURY
![]()

Thanks
again to videohunter, this time for these 2 great
Japanese VHS covers (so good I think they deserved to be framed). Added to the Cannon A-Z IMDb.
Not
many films have a Cannon/21st Century (Golan's company when he left Cannon)
connection but Devil
Master (1977) was
originally distributed by 21st and
we see
it get a Cannon badge in Japan. Can only
assume Cannon controlled that catalogue for some time.

BARFLY MULTIREGION

Australia
OOP DVD
Looks like people are
now paying US$90 dollars for the OOP Warner
Barfly DVD www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000696I5
The DVD is encoded for
several Regions incidentally including Region 1, 4 and Region 2. Or at least my
DVD is! Barfly (1987) was handled by Warner on home video
in most places but those rights have reverted
to Cannon (MGM). MGM have released the DVD in a few places but not Region 1
yet. Someone’s went to the bother
of starting a petition www.petitiononline.com/a8d8f877/petition.html Why
not buy it somewhere else much cheaper? Places I’ve seen it in Denmark and Greece.
Extras
on the Region 1 (2 + 4) North American DVD.
Review of the North
American DVD www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDReview/barfly.htm
Review of the
Australian DVD www.michaeldvd.com.au/Reviews/Reviews.asp?ID=5446
Obviously, if you want
those extras it’ll have to be the North American DVD. I assume Warner own all
those extras so even if there is a new DVD MGM
may not want to pay for
them.
Anyone seen other
releases of Barfly (1987)? I was told there was a 2 DVD MGM set from
Brazil or Mexico with another Rourke film (Desperate Hours),
but I’ve not see
anything to confirm this.
Easiest and cheapest
place to get this is eBay and there’s people on there now selling the Greek
version and that 2 DVD version. Just search worldwide.

There is a restored DVD

IT’S ALL GREEK TO ME!

No idea what that says exactly (anyone translate literally?) but it
translates perfectly into Death Wish II (1982) -which is a helluva surprise as I have never known
DWII
to appear anywhere with a Cannon logo. I’d heard of it (see post at bottom of
the page) but never seen any real evidence.
You can see it in it’s full glory :

SUPERMAN BAD OMEN?

Superman III (1983) is a dire film. Maybe Golan-Globus didn’t know just how bad it was (did they even know they owned some of
the rights to Superman III?)
and that’s why they went for another Superman? With terrible results.

WE'VE GONE ON HOLIDAY BY MISTAKE
click for larger image
Added Withnail
& I (1987) to
the Cannon
A-Z IMDb
and Cannon-Warner
Gallery.
Cannon hanlded Withnail
& I (1987) and
released it on VHS rental (I’m still
after that cover if you have it) and sell-through.
Cannon fell out with George Harrison’s Handmade Films and there was a
court case and a counter case. From what I can tell (information is very
limited) Handmade hadn’t been paid for something (and had
tried to cancel their contract with Cannon) and they eventually lost out
badly as they lost some of their film catalogue. I recall Cannon selling off
some of their rights and that’s why so much Handmade
product is almost invisible on home video. Not that Handmade needed
Cannon to argue with as they argued within themselves, with the partnership
eventually collapsing and being sold off. Their film catalogue
is so fucked up, their films
appear free in newspapers here in the UK or to download free from Channel4
VOD. I suppose that’s better than no releases/”lost” films but not very good
for the people who made
the film (I saw Richard Griffiths (Uncle Monty) getting interviewed and
he was asked why he'd not recorded a commentary track for the Withnail DVD and
he said "Because they refused to pay me". Good point. I
don't know how these "free" DVDs work (every week in the UK in
all the newspaper you get a free DVD actually inside the paper) but there can't
be much in it for the creative people who actually made the film.
As for Cannon and Handmade, Cannon’s logo still appears on some of their films.
Few pictures from the film here including the classic (and beautifully
composed) photo with Withnail (Richard E. Grant) and “I” (Paul McGann) –as used
above, in the original UK cinema release artwork, by Cannon at least
twice and of course, Anchor Bay UK in their DVDs.

JCVD is Go!

I managed to eventually start the Jean-Claude Van Damme Cannon

I'm looking for a UK Warner Home Video scan for Bloodsport (1988). Big box/exrental
only, which seems a bit rare. Anyone help with that? A good quality scan is
fine.
Also, I've added a Bloodsport (1988) DVD screengrab gallery but I don't own Cyborg (1989), Kickboxer (1889) or Death Warrant (1990) on DVD -so if you
would like to do screengrabs
(easy with VLC or whichever player you use) then I'd appreciate
that and add a thank you to the page. All I need is the images (your favourite
20 or 30 images from the film is fine)
unless you want to do the webpage too. You can upload screengrabs or
scans to http://allyoucanupload.webshots.com You can also email me them too but make sure
they're in
small quantities or email can't cope. If you’d like to add any other

DEATH WISH 2 –MAYBE CANNON AFTER ALL.

Always looked for something to completely link this to Cannon (apart from
Golan-Globus of course) but never found anything. Came by this image
from Greece featuring Mr Bronson and that logo. I can’t confirm it as
it’s difficult to search in Greek script. Can anyone confirm this Greek VHS,
got
a bigger image or the release company? I know the Greek VHS has always
been known as the only truly uncut DW2 (longer even than the “uncut”
new European/Australia DVDs) but wasn’t aware of the Cannon link. For
those that can search in Greek script you’ll no doubt be aware of www.google.gr

Strange little number from Cannon Japan called "Pigs" or

GRACE QUIGLEY / THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION OF GRACE
QUIGLEY UK DVD
click all for larger image
Grace Quigley (1985) There’s a Region 0 (plays on any PC or DVD player
(with PAL output or NTSC conversion)) DVD of this in the UK under the name
“The Ultimate Solution of
Grace Quigley”. According to the IMDb
“Originally released as "Grace
Quigley" in 1984 at 102 minutes; later cut to 87 minutes. The alternate
and
re-edited version,
titled "The Ultimate Solution of Grace Quigley" has been prepared by
screenwriter A. Martin Zweiback and runs 94 minutes.” I recall there being 2 versions
but not a fan of the
film so never watched it all. Might rewatch it again . As for the UK DVD it’s a
very nice image and I’ve added screengrabs of it in the main menu under Screen
Grabs.

AUSTRALIA HIGHLANDER + TCM2

Nice to see StudioCanal/Universal getting the titles correct on Highlander
(1986). Not
very good artwork though. See this fanart
for something far more worthwhile.
Those terrible censorship labels in Australia and New Zealand really do
destroy their covers. Bad enough in the UK but those long banners really take
the piss
out of film fans.

Which reminds me, I’m intending to do a The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
(1986)
page on the fact it was banned on video here in the UK (and elsewhere) which
meant
I never watched it (yes, I could of imported it but I wasn’t having
that). I have recently purchased the Gruesome Edition and look forward to seeing it.

QUIGLEY DOWN UNDER (1990) –FINAL GERMAN CANNON?
click

I think this is the last scan I have to add for when “Cannon
Entertainment” changed to “Pathé Entertainment”. The name/logo of Cannon almost
disappeared
(only to reappear as Globus’s project “Cannon Pictures”) and what was left
lingering in Germany for several home video releases.
The other titles I know of are:
Company Business (1991) scan of cover here
Death Warrant (1990) scan of cover here (also appeared with Cannon in the Netherlands here and Norway here
and of
course there was also a Cannon trailer)
Not Without My Daughter (1991) scan of cover here
Russia House, The (1990) scan of cover here
Quigley Down Under (1990) scan of cover here
I reckon Thelma & Louise (1991) was caught up in the Cannon/Pathé change too (see
the French cover here with “Pathé
Entertainment” but no sign of Cannon).

Cannon LMK.

AMERICAN CYBORG: STEEL WARRIOR (1993)
I’ve added another great review (Cannon Film Review/Comment) from Nathan Decker’s
www.millionmonkeytheater.com This time he analyses Cannon’s American
Cyborg: Steel Warriror (1993)
This looks like it was
partly shot at Golan-Globus Studios (like so many late Cannon) in Israel. I see “GG Studios”
at the end of many of their films from Cannon Pictures. I assume that stands
for
Golan-Globus. If anyone
knows exactly which films were shot in Israel please let me know. You can even

Whatever happened to this film? Finally found a UK VHS scan (thanks to
David P.). I reckon this was part of the 12½ year deal the Cannon Group made
with Warner. That period
is now over so not sure why Dancers (1987) hasn’t appeared on DVD. Not a
particularly good film (although it needs rewatching after 2 decades) but it
has its fans and a following.

Had a
very nice email (I like emails so don't be shy if you have something to share!)
from David del
Valle
who worked with Cannon. David is also a producer and author outwith his
experiences
with Cannon as a script reader (which he talks about in his article). Some of
David’s work is on the excellent film site www.filmsinreview.com and he tells me they’re
compiling
a book of their reviews to be titled "A Collection of Memoirs About
Hollywood and The People Whose Dreams Never Quite Reached Their Idealized
Horizons" –sounds like a good read!
David
has kindly allowed me to republish 2 of his artilces (in the Cannon Film
Review/Comment section). They're in two parts, first A CANNON-BURY TALE and then still linked to
Golan-Globus
we have an excerpt piece (DO THE BIM) about Vladek
Sheybal
from Menahem Golan's The
Apple (1980). The
entire Vladek Sheybal article (JUST BE THE BITCH…DARLING)
is
available to read too and I'd implore you to read it as it's worthy of your
time if you just like reading about the real stars of film or film in general.
If
you’d like to relive the glory of Menahem Golan’s The Apple then catch the

I had

Hollywood office, carrying a Black

cut off
one of his own fingers every five
minutes until the paper was signed. The paper was signed without bloodshed. “ –Quote from New York Times

the Contact Me
page on the main
menu
I’m always looking for
scans of covers, posters, press kits, newspaper articles or anything you think
other people would like to read or look at about Cannon.
What's Missing?
Is there a title missing from the Cannon Film A-Z IMDb & Image Gallery? Especially home
video as Cannon Video may have released other distributors' stuff.
If there is please let me know. Always looking to make this archive as
accurate as possible. Thanks.
