What films are you still waiting to be released on disc in your region

Blood Beach
Cohen and Tate
Ensign Pulver
Killdozer
Shadey
Sole Survivor
The Assassination Bureau
The Golden Gate Murders

There are several I am waiting for, the first two that sprang into mind were:

Notre Dame de Paris (1956)
I am Sam

The first never was released on DVD in Germany the second is OoP and only available at tremendous prices.

One of my favorite non-Duke westerns is Man Without A Star.  I think it's been released in Europe, possibly, but not in North America.  It stars Kirk Douglas who even gets to sing and play the banjo in this movie.  A very lively film.  Claire Trevor is in this, too, I think.  This is the only movie off the top of my head I can think of.  Of course, if we went to TV series, I could name Lawman and How The West Was Won and a whole bunch of others...

The Hong Kong release is NTSC and region free of that helps you Roger?

You may want to check at EZY-DVD Australia.
The product description has some inconsistencies though: NTSC is required for playback but it is supposed to be Region 4 only. 
AFAIK Australia has PAL so NTSC and Region 4 only wouldn't go together all too well.

It wouldn't surprise me actually. A lot of earlier Oz releases (Warner titles in particular) were dual encoded region 1/4 or even 1/2/3/4 and the same disc used in South America/US/Australia.

Here's a bunch of reviews of such titles at MichaelDVD:

I got one of those Hong Kong releases once and I wasn't too happy with the quality so I'll just wait and hope for an official North America release while hoping it shows now and then on cable TV...
