As if I didn't have enough problems, I just received a threatening message from Yilmaz Atadeniz, the producer of the 3 KILINK films I have released, that our contract period is overdue and that I must either give him MORE money to prolong the contract or return him ALL my remaining DVD's!
Yes, our contract mentioned 18 months and I was stupid enough to believe that he wouldn't mind giving me a break.
I was stupid enough to ASSUME that after that period, he was JUST free to sell the copyrights to another guy too.
And I was stupid enough to believe that 18 months were enough to sell out.
And now....
So, while we're talking, I'll try to buy some time, for maybe 1 month and try to get rid of my 2 KILINK dvd's (KILINK ISTANBUL'DA & KILINK DOUBLE BILL).
Thankfully, I've ALMOST sold out KILINK ISTANBUL'DA.
There are about 120 dvd's left.
But there are at least 400 dvd's left of KILINK DOUBLE BILL, which means 1 month is NOT enough to get rid of them.
So, for about 1 month, the 1st KILINK will be available on my site. After that, it will HAVE to disappear!
I don't think I'll sell out in 1 month but I'll just have to remove it from the site.
As for the other KILINK dvd, I'll be offering it at a ridiculous price and then I'm not sure...
Return all the remaining ones to the producer?
Or double- pay like a damn fool a small fortune for a deadbeat that will not sell out even in 10 years?
I really don't know what to do.
What's worse is that Atadeniz will probably demand the same thing for stuff I haven't EVEN released!
I bought from him ZORRO KAMCILI SUVARI & MASKELI SEYTAN about 2 years ago and I bet he'll be asking for more money before I even release them!!
...Which means I'll prefer to NOT release them at all and stuff them in my ass, instead of doing him the favour and pay again before I even release them.

IT'S BEEN A WHILE...
Hi to all!
Summer is sadly over...
My summer discount offers are over too, by the way.
Thanks for the support to all the ones who decided to take a chance on my stuff!
A few of you out there noticed that my new, 11th DVD, KORKUSUZ KAPTAN SWING, came out early August, on 500 numbered copies. Most of the others just did NOT notice...
CELLAT is supposed to come out late October.
The relevant documentary on Turkish Revenge flicks is ready and on its way to me.
My ORDER was that it MUST be full of clips and teasers and highlights from dozens of bloody revenge- vigilante Turkish movies. A personal favourite is called BUYUK KIN (BIG HATE) (1967) and the scenes included will most probably get you hooked!
Now, after CELLAT.. what? Good question...
If you check the NEW trailers on Kaptan Swing DVD and all the previous ones, from Kizil Tug etc, you could just SUGGEST.
Some guys are begging me to release more westerns, but I'm afraid if Kaptan Swing is a western to go by (sales-wise) I should NEVER release anything similar, not even in 100 years...
Same with historical stuff. KIZIL TUG was my death and I will avoid releasing anything of that kind during this century...

CELLAT on DVD in September!
Although I didn't see any fresh votes below about this film I decided to simply go ahead and buy it.
So, I just got a screener off the beta and the quality looks quite good. It cost me a bit more than usual but what the heck!
I'm in the process of contracts etc right now and I will definitely release it in September.
As for extras, cover etc I hope I'll know what it's going to be like in a few weeks.
Meanwhile, in Kizil Tug dvd there are 4 NEW trailers and I'm really looking forward to your thoughts and comments about them...

KORKUSUZ KAPTAN SWING (CAPTAIN SWING THE FEARLESS) -New DVD
As a passionate lover of most italian 60's fummetti comics I was shocked to learn that the Turks had made a film adaptation for IL COMANDANTE MARK (1966) a.k.a CAPTAIN SWING a.k.a CAPTAIN MARK.
And this, among other reasons, is what motivated me to start ONAR 3 years ago.
I used to read AND collect the greek edition of the comic back in the 70's and I'm proud to say I have 100's of those precious mags.
Here, Captain Swing first appeared in the late 60's in his own mag called SWING. It only ran for a couple of issues and it was then incorporated in a triple-bill mag called OBRAX (out of... TOM BRAKS). This one ran about 240 issues. Right after that he appeared in JAGUAR mag, among many other heroes which ran about 30 issues. Finally, during the late 80's he appeared in PERIPETEIA (ADVENTURE) in a double bill with TOM BRAKS again, for over 100 issues.
So, in my new DVD coming out late June, I'll include a photogallery of a few of those amazing Greek magazines.
You can of course visit my offial site http://www.onarfilms.com/ for more info about the DVD extras.
Finally, let me stress out that this release is a "prova generale" for the "Turkish Western" genre! That is, if this release sells well I'll sure go on and release more Turkish spaghetti westerns. And if you study my Turkish Fantastic Cinema Guide booklet insert in KIZIL TUG CENGIS HAN dvd you will find out there were dozens of them made over there!
In a few days I'll announce my next release for September which will be another novelty in my agenda! You see, ONAR is here to support not only Superhero stuff but ALL genres of Turkish Fantastic Cinema.
The bigger your support, the more films I'll be able to release....
