-
Hmm.. what's this all about now?
-
who knows i know its a DVD maybe the making of dark light?
-
OOH! That would be awesome!!!
-
that place doesnt ship to the us though :'(
-
But that won't be the only place selling it, just the first to put it up.
EDIT: And is it me, or is 'Poison Arrow' not a very HIMish name?
-
it better not be, and if it is, ill just have to befriend a lovely brit who i can trust. lol
-
Im sure more places will have it soon enough. ;)
-
i hope it isn't another US only dvd. speeking of US dvds, did anyone ever get the R2 version of the US video collection.
-
An ABC song.
-
EDIT: And is it me, or is 'Poison Arrow' not a very HIMish name?
I agree with that, when I saw the link on HIMclub, I though it was fake so I didn't even watched the link.
Poison Girl, Poison Heart and now Poison Arrow
-
I just hope its something enjoyable. ::)
-
it's gonna be released on October 17th. i reckon it could be one of them dvd biography things. (see: Fear Of A Satanic Planet - Marilyn Manson). its like Maximum but on a dvd.
but that's just what i think.
-the people over on the official messageboard are all jumping to conclusions and stuff. some guy just said "ok so we all know it's not a HIM dvd" ok how? they drive me crazy.

BUT THEY KNOW EVERYTHING! they have ville valo on speeddial.. ::)
they don't know shit 95% of them could drown to death in an empty bucket.
fuckin' tards.
It doesn't sound like a proper title, It may just be a working title till they have given it a proper name.
who knows? even if it is called "Poison arrow" I could think of worse things to name it...
play.com aren't the most reliable source for info on upcoming dvds/cds.
-
If it is a HIM dvd, and real, i think it will be the WOAB making of, possibly even a Dark Light making of.
HIM are going to try and cash in whilst they can, so releasing loadsa DVDs is all good.
-
good for us and them.
-
If its real, why is it only listed on one site?

(this picture was taken a while ago!)
so far it's only on UK sites. but on DVD.co.uk it says it is R0 and on Play it says R2 and on B'sW it has no regional information.
i still believe it to be a biographical dvd. as you can see by the cover, it is

Review (PLAY)
Finland's most successful Rock band ever, HIM first gained cult status with their cover of Chris Isaak's Wicked Game. Since then they've carved their own niche with their unique brand of Folk inspired Gothic Meta and have sold millions of albums in the process. This DVD documentary charts their lives and career, showing how they first conquered Finland and went on to build a massive fan base across the rest of the world. With the release of their new album Dark Light this month and the first single Behind The Crimson Door the band look set to increase their massive appeal even further.
So yeah, it's an unofficial Biographical DVD, most likely from the same people that released "Fear of a satanic planet - Marilyn manson" and those kinda dvd's, if i am right then it'll be from the same company that make the MAXIMUM cds.
To keep up to date on other sites that will be supplying this dvd click the link: http://films.kelkoo.co.uk/ctl/do/compare?from=shopbot&catPath=uk%2Ffilm&catId=149201&DVD=checked&title=poison+arrow&actor=&zone=I&x=26&y=5 (http://films.kelkoo.co.uk/ctl/do/compare?from=shopbot&catPath=uk%2Ffilm&catId=149201&DVD=checked&title=poison+arrow&actor=&zone=I&x=26&y=5)
Anyone gonna buy it?
-
noone would have known about this for ages if i hadnt posted it on the official forums
-
Yeah I'm pretty sure that its an unoffical DVD too.
And Play.com is stupid.
With the release of their new album Dark Light this month and the first single Behind The Crimson Door
-
lol. i'll probably end up buying it. but it's annoying though cause they won't be able to have official music on it, they'll probably get some band like Overdream to do the background music.
-
according Seppo that documentary is total rip-off. there is no any HIM interviews (even no any new stuff) only just interviews of some backround guys.. so don't waste your money.
sorry my english
-

Well arent you clever?? I dont even go on the official forums.
-
i fucking hate that forum...
not even the people...i dont know how they act...im sure there as stupid as the faggots from HIM-online were...
but just the board itself...its the stupidest message board set up ...ever...
-
the people on the board are just dumbass newbie HIM fans. They have like 5 threads for one topic, its anarchy over there! oi oi oi!
-
Ya that board is gay. Somebody created a thread for your least favorite HIM song and somebody locked the thread because they said no true HIM fan should make a thread like that and they got angry all kinds. Fuckers...lol
-
Its to easy accessable by the stupid newbie fans....
so they smut all over it... I love this forum <3
-
Anybody who looks at that picture of the DVD cover and believes it to be official should press the off button on their computer and never turn it on again.
-
hahaha.....man tht is some cheap ass shit
ill still probably but it though

-
It's noy the 28th today. its the 17th. its not out until next friday. Unless that post had an error in it. The dvd might be quite intresting actually.
-
HMV and Play say that it is out today, maybe the US release date is the 28th.
-
sorry, but the cover looks so crappy...
everybody should make his or her own dvd and sell it on some shops ;)
-
it's a crappy cover because it's unauthorized
-
Yes but even i could make a better cover than that.

It's OK for an unofficial DVD. It has interviews with people connected to the band and the story behind all of their albums. It covers all of their CD's (Including 666WTL and DL) and it also has some brief info on pre-1996 demos and performances. Unfortunately it's only 1 hour long. I rate it 6/10.
-
Does the contains rare material of have you seen of that videos before?
Do you see the band or only the people that were interviewed?
-
It contains no HIM footage/music apart from a few second clips from an interview they done at HMV in 2004.
-
Hmm... 6/10, maybe I'll check it out. It looks like it says Region 0, so it'll play in my American players?
-
i am gonna attempt to rip it. i have a dvd ripper on my pc, if i can copy it, can someone recommend a good programme so that i can compress it (most probably to a .wmv file)

TMPGenc Xpress and Winavi Video Converter are 2 very easy and very effective programs, both can do .WMVs.

i dont know if i will buy it, still not convinced...
-
i bought this from MVC a few days ago for £11.99 and its ok, but theres not much interview footage with HIM, i havent watched all the bonus features yet, but the film is ok good bio on the band but not alot of ville and the band on there.
-
there are no "watchable" bonus features. Just a full discography and a quiz...
-
How is the quiz? :)
-
it's ok, but easy.
-
I want it, mainly because I'm curious. Has anyone simply got a rip of some clips from the DVD? I also can't find a site that sells to America, so... ??? I'm sorry if this makes you all hate me...
-
It actually sounds like an interesting dvd, but also a bit boring
-
if you don`t want to spend any money, take part in the competition we have on our pagee :)
-
They should make a movie on Ville's life. From the interviews and bio's I have read...
It would be a kickass movie.
But who would play his part? Johnny Depp?
-
I'm going to be shunned for saying this, and I find it repulsing...but if there ever were a film of Ville's life, I see...::gags:: Bam jumping at the chance to be him. Even though, that would be kind of interesting.................
-
sounds like something bam would do......... :-\ (if this scenario did occur)
-
i have to seen again the poison arrow dvd to write a review, must be this week, i also have one extra to a contest on h-i-m666.com, i've seen a lot of oppinions about this dvd, some of ones really bad, but its just a documentary, very interesting and with correct info, and the most i like its how is filmed, good photography
one of the oppinions says that seppo says: "dont waste your money", but who knows if is true, the pic of seppo on this dvd is .... the worst from him, he looks like angry
-
I picked it up at Hot Topic this previous weekend.
It's got some grand photography, I'll say. But for the most part, it seemed like a chopped up way to lure Americans into getting hooked onto HIM more (the ones who hand't heard of HIM before). I didn't see this as a "bad" DVD, just nothing impressive.
-
I got my DVD today and I'm very disappointed!! >:( There´s nothing new!
-
I got the DVD at FYE friday. Shelled out $20.00 for it.
I am VERY disspointed although I liked seeing Kari Valo talking about Ville and Mutti was cool to see too but there really was NOTHING in that DVD. You see small little tiny clips of Ville being interviewed with Mige in 2004 which is like.....3 seconds long......
I think this DVD is only good for hardcore collectors, other then that it was crap. The sad part is the back of the DVD linear notes mad eit sound like the best DVD in the world. ;D
-
Very disappointing yes... GRR
-
Is it worth the $20 buying it ?
-
It's worth buying, but it shouldnt be that price.
-
i passed it up the other day and got the calender the other day. i think the calender was worth the money. that didn't look like it was worth the 20 bux they wanted for it
-
i've heard it so many times that the dvd it's awful but i'll buy it just for the collection :D
-
the copy i passed up ended up being bought for me regardless, from my bf. it sucked, i'm sorry, i was not at all impressed
-
If you want a taste of the DVD i have posted some videos of it on my website (http://www.himdownload.vze.com) so you can judge for youself
-
what impressed me the most was the dumb narrator calling him "veal"
i thought her adding her own translations of peoples names is what the video needed ::)
-
Well, I was close on giving a click on the "buy" button in amazon, but due to the reviews you guys share, I think I will just pass on with this one.
(still waiting for a live dvd!!!)
Cheers! ;D
-
It seems that someone is trying to make money with that stupid dvd. I'll wait for a official one.
-
and to add insult to injury.... 20$!!! no thanks!!!
-
$20 is like a tenner i payed £12 for mine! :-[
-
I might get the DVD but from what I am hearing it isnt that good but i still might get it
-
I was thinking of getting it but now im not sure... I was hoping for a few performances on it.
-
there isn't anything on it, not even their own songs. its just interviews of people talking about the band, and like one clip where they're not even talking, just looping shit over it
but hey, i didn't pay for it, it was an xmas gift, so i watched it
-
It does say UNAUTHORISED.
Although, it also says that it includes "rare HIM footage."
-
sucked
-
Yeah, I got this a few weeks ago at Hot Topic....watched it right when I got home.....the only interesting things, as stated, were Mutti and Ville's dad. The narrator PISSED me off! Ahh! Stupid bitch not able to pronounce anything....::growls:: ANYWAY! Yeah.....still, it was okay, I guess........I hope they'll release an OFFICIAL dvd with propper information and music, and a narrator who can pronounce names correctly. ::laughs::
Yeah we could only be so lucky... I have the horrible feeling though that more crappy dvds and promos are gonna come out to lure americans into buying HIM stuff I am kinda mising the days when the Dvd's and concerts were new and exciting.
-
It does say UNAUTHORISED.

it doesnt.
this dvd sucks. they dont have permission to use their music or videos, so there may be some like rare pictures and stuff. Its like those Maximum *Insert Band Name* cd's put out. Its not good, maybe if your a hardcore collector, its nice to have, but in all honesty, its not good. i would look over this one.
-
What other stuff is on the dvd, just video?
I was considering getting it, but I don't want to give money to those cheapo merchants
-
There were photos and footage I never saw before. To me it was worth the price for the interview with Kari alone.
-
hmmmmmm... 20 bucks for a 60 minute unauthorized biography. How about no Scott.
-
Lol. You could rent it online off of Netflix. They have it there. Just to save money.
-
It pisses me off
They didnt play HIM songs
they played some wierd ass guitars
-
OMG not is it only worthless to buy, it is also worthless to watch..all I can say is I want my 2 hours back!
The main person they "interviewed" (silke) was drunk off her ass the entire time...adn pretty much all she did is ramble on and on..the photos were...well think of just about the worse pics of Ville you have ever seen and then you have what these phots were..adn the exact same pictures ( I think there was about 5) were shown over and over through out the movie..and at one point they zoomed in so close you could see the buggers in villes nose..NOT COOL!!
Anyways..as a fan I would not buy it..it's unauthurised SH*T !
