Best soundtrack ever!
Best Mia Farrow performance ever!!
Best ending scene ever!!!

Why is this incredibly moving,creepy,poetic,haunting "ghost story" not available yet on a decent looking dvd?

But still no dvd/Blu Ray available yet...

I read the review and it sounds good. I'll keep an eye out for it. Thanks for the heads-up :-)

I've been trying to track this one down for ages for a UK DVD release. I've so far managed to trace the negatives, but no rights owner as yet. Fingers crossed!

The only widescreen 2.35:1 release seems to be an English-language French-subbed TV broadcast subtitled LE CERCLE INFERNAL:

I tried to watch the Media pre-cert tape of this, but the picture is too distorted and soft.

Plus I've read too many spoilers for this film.

I escaped, disguised in a house dress and large floppy hat.

A decent dvd/Blu Ray of FULL CIRCLE would be awesome!
I own a 2:35 copy of the film (the film CAN only be seen in 2:35,because its use of Cinemascope is really beautiful!) but the quality isn't perfect,and the german and french dvds are really to avoid like plague!
I'd love to have a special edition of this gem,with the audio commentary,the making of,the deleted scenes and the trailer.

LE CERCLE INFERNAL is the french title,the film was released in french theaters in 1978...FULL CIRCLE/LE CERCLE INFERNAL won the Grand Prize of the fantastic/horror film festival of Avoriaz (France) in 1978.
Then it was released in the UK theaters and in 1981 in the States theaters,under the title THE HAUNTING OF JULIA.

That's the best way to do it.
