I was wondering if anyone knows if the Ingrid Pitt film Countess Dracula is going to be released on DVD.
I've never actually seen the film as i can't find it here in New Zealand and i see it advertised on the internet to buy on video but i really don't wanna pay for a video if there's a chance that it's gonna be released on DVD.
I live Ingrid Pitt, i think she's fantastic!
I would really appreciate it if anyone out there has any imformation.
Thanks!!

I dont think it will be released on DVD in the near future, I would get the video, it is a great film.
Anyone here going to the Ingrid Pitt birthday bash? In London. It will be the forth time I've met her, but I'm scared to hell of the Polish food.
Please someone tell me what Polish food is.
Its not fish is it??? Please no.
And anyone know where I can buy a copy of Clive Barkers Underworld with Ingrid pitt in it. AKA Transmutations. I have searched everywhere. and I recently found it on ebay, but some idiot outbid me at the last minute. *I hate people that do that :1devil: *

Oh I havent been yet! :)
Thanks for your insight Old Soul!
*I am double scared now!*
I hope the sausages arnt too spicy and are not filed with horrible things. Maybe I could just pretend to eat the food, and cunningly tip it on the floor.
Haha, I actualy even asked Ingrid herself what was on the menu *Well I'm parranoid ok!*
She said 'You WILL like it or you'll have me to deel with!' :)
I may not even be able to go, I just got a job as a croupier/deeler at a Casino, and I will be working.
Thanks again Old Soul. :)

Cross your fingers for me! Just hopefuly.... Just hopefuly the Casino might not let me go! :)
I am the fussiest eater in the world, so if weird English food exists I havent had it... come to think of it, if normal English food exists I havent had it...
Fish and Chips are popular in Britain, I personaly dont eat fish... the idea horrifies me.. yuk!
And as for eating fish for breakfast???!?! Oh u mean kippers, I cant even look at them. And they smell. Blood sausage... sounds foreign to me!
Thanks for your Polish insights, your the first person I have came a cross to know anything about Polish food. I'm glad its not too spicy.
I'll let u know how it goes.
Oh I see your from New York, well your from NY anyway, hope its all right in that department! :)

Could you tell me some of the foods that you like, this way I can let you know what would be similar..
This way you can go there and tell your friend you would like to try such and such, and it won't be too spookie for you.

We have a fairly large Polish community in Syracuse, and the food is great! The sausage is more like what you'd find in Germany, very good and not weird. Perogies are great, like ravioli with different fillings. I recommend the potato and cheese. They have wonderful breads too. Avoid the cabbage only if you have a delicate digestion, as the stuffed cabbage rolls are good. Christmas and Easter feasts are something to look forward too, as are weddings, so it could be a fabulous eating experience. At least taste it! You'll find something mild to eat, I'm sure!;)

This thread has been amusing me no end. Titled 'Ingrid Pitt' and yet I find myself reading of the joys inherent in Polish sausage. There must be an amusing irony in there somewhere, but I don't think I'll venture down that road  This thread is also having the distinct effect of making me yearn for some solid Eastern European grub, particularly cabbage rolls. My background is Austrian and Croatian, so I am quite familiar with a similar cuisine and can heartily recommend trying it. Greg, just give it a go, live on the edge, expand your horizons, you won't regret it.
Now, what did you all make of Ingrid Pitt's comments in The Wicker Man Enigma interview? I found her, for the most part, to be quite unabashedly unique in her views on the film's place in the greater scheme of things.
Cheers!

Hahaha, :)
Live life on the edge.... I would love to if say I'm going bungy jumping or sky-diving, but this is dining at the Polish club!!!! This is far worse for me...
Your right Charles I SHOULD expand my horizons. (Expanding my horizons is another matter)
Thats a hard question Old Soul! Actualy its a very easy question... *Yeah I cant make sense of that either*
The foods I eat are:
1. Bread (When I have to)
2. Chips
Well the list seems to end there...
Ummmm... does ketchup count?
Oh... KFC! I love those crispy chicken strips.
Ravioli? German food? Fillings? EATING?
Maria!!! your scaring me.
But you've inspired me to!!! Thanks.
I'm off to book an appointment to see a hypnotist!
Where is this article Ingrid Pitt wrote?, why havent I seen it? *I mean somebody could at least have hand delivered the article to me one morning*
I think I've finaly lost the plot....
I'l leave you with an Epitaph quote:
Underneath this pile of stones
Lies all thats left of Sally Jones.
Her name was Lord, it was not Jones
But Jones was used to rhyme with stones.
Thankyou

God I thought I was writing an article for my local newspaper for a minute there! :)

Poor Greg, no wonder you're so pale!!!! I just noticed Old Soul is from Buffalo, hi neighbor!
Charles, I haven't read the interview, but would be interested in seeing it! I can see that you are a man of good taste ;)
I forgot to mention that polish sausage is heavily seasoned with garlic! I guess you wouldn't go for that, eh Greg? Poor Lad! There should be bread there, and beer or vodka to wash it down with! Thanks for the humor, guys! :)

We did seam to get off the subject a little Charles, but one last post from me.
Hi MariaS !!!
I grew up in a section of Buffalo called Kiezertown. Full of German, Polish, Russian, and Austrian people. It was a natural thing to mix a few words from these countries along with you English and think nothing about it. My Grandfather used to speak German to me, While my Grandmother spoke in Polish and Russian, (they were born here but they kept in touch with the

Oops. I should clarify...the interview segment was in The Wicker Man Enigma, which was an extra featurette on the recent DVD release, not a print article.
Cheers,

Maria,
I believe (and may well be wrong) that the British call what Americans call French fries "chips," and potato chips "crisps," which would put Greg on bread and fries. Not very spicey fare, unless they're Mexi-fries!
