dick smith electronics stores have heaps of them in their discount dvd bins. it's even in their catalogue. oh, and it's only $2.98. i just watched it and i'm afraid it's not a great one for the herzog fans out there. one of his lousiest. nice enough climbing footage though...

$3.99 at Sanity in downtown Shepparton. I did find something else amusing in the bargain bins, "Fire, Ice & Dynamite" (I think it was called that) with Roger Moore, something about a bizarre race/competition which included parachuting, extreme skiing, driving, white water, and stuff involving snow and ice judging by the cover pic. Anybody seen it? Still, I doubt it would as much fun as the Telemark Movie.

Yeah I've seen fire & Ice!! It has Wolfgang Gullich in it and several top climbers of the day. It is absolutely classic! Definately better than Scream of Stone.

I had the misfortune of actually watching that sorry excuse for a movie right through to the end! By the time the monotonous monologing and collection of random junk finished i was ready to bin it. (i might have actually done the latter...) There were 2 desent climbing scenes and a lot of 10th grade acting. I'm not even sure it had a plot and I was embarrassed that climbing was associated with it.

My advice - AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS!

happy viewing...

Ja i've seen that movie, the end of it was alright with them climbing The Eiger, in fact some of the footage was quite spectacular, the rest of it was fairly ordinary though. Cliffhanger was quite a funny movie, i was young when i saw it the scene looked rediculas! i enjoyed it though besides the climbing, im easily influenced by violence!
