Inglourious Basterds Special Edition Blu-Ray DVD brings Jewish revenge fantasy to life.  

The film that gave glory to Quentin Tarantino about a Jewish-American nazi-scalping squad behind enemy lines during WWII, has been enhanced even further with the Blu-ray launch of the film on DVD. Inglourious Basterds, not a remake of the original inglorious Bastards (as indicated by the misspelling), gives Jews “a violent fantasy that avenges Nazi atrocities” (Toronto Sun), while rewriting history.  

The two-disc special edition Blu-ray version of the film, appropriately displays the visual dynamic of film. The grotesque and vivid violence, particularly of the scalping, is enough to both sicken audiences and earn Tarantino the Academy Award for Best Film. The latest in a typical line of ultra-violent films, Inglourious Basterds has been nominated for four Oscars: Best Film (drama), Best Supporting Actor for Australian-born Christopher Waltz, Best Director and Best Screenplay.  

The film, much like Tarantino’s others, is full to the brim of inside jokes and intertextual referencing to other influences which can only fully be appreciated upon the 20th viewing of the DVD. Extras on the double-disc edition include extended scenes which include Tarantino in action, comedy camera angle featurette and an uncut version of Nation’s Pride – the six minute film within the film shot in black and white as Nazi propaganda by Eli Roth.
