F.Y.I. please read A word about playing VHS video tapes, made in the 1970-1990 period, on a VCR with automatic tracking. At the time these tapes were made, tracking could be done manually. Therefore, on a automatic tracking VCR, during playback, you may have rollover and static lines. We offer no guarantee that you will or will not have tracking problems with this videotape. Attention: On older vhs videos (pre-1990) very few were re-mastered for sound quality. Sometimes the ground loop signal was recorded in the source material during dubbing or mastering. Thus possibly creating some pops and hissing. **PLEASE NOTE** Now that you are fully aware that this video may have these flaws (but is watchable) it will be sold AS IS! Questions? You may contact us through: eBay's message system (contact member) It is not digitally remastered, and how it looks will depend on your VCR and TV. Remember, this is a video tape with 250 lines of resolution compared to today's DVDs, which are digital and 480 lines, and Blu-rays which are 1080 lines, so no matter what TV you play it on, it isn't going to look as crisp as a DVD or Blu-ray. THIS MOVIE HAS NEVER BEEN OFFICIALLY RELEASED ON DVD! MPAA RATING: Not suitable for younger viewers. Contains violence, nudity, adult content, smoking & drinking and language.

Major Wrongway Lindbergh DIRECTOR: Robert Feust ("The Abominable Dr. Phibes", "Dr. Phibes Rises Again", "And Soon the Darkness", "The Devil's Rain") PLOTLINE: Get this RARE cult sci-fi flick for your home video library! Tagline: The future is cancelled! A trio of scientists plan to create a self-replicating, immortal, hermaphrodite using the Final Programme developed by a dead, Nobel Prize-winning scientist. This is pretty dreary and unpleasant stuff and you may feel like taking a bath after viewing. In addition, check out my other RARE out-of-print CULT CLASSIC videos currently up for bid. Many are out-of-print and not available on DVD. Win a bunch and have a RARE MOVIE marathon! TRIVIA: Actor Jon Finch replaced Timothy Dalton on short notice. ***BEWARE*** There are bootlegging pirates selling illegally duped copies of this video for "THE FINAL PROGRAMME". This is the one and only true ORIGINAL release on THORN EMI VIDEO which has been out-of-print for over 25 years! If anyone else has a different box displayed, then it's a copied video or illegal imported video! Also, beware of sellers (crooks) using a picture of a MOVIE POSTER to advertise as a box for the VIDEO! (How chintzy can they get?) Finally, there are sellers (bootleggers) who use terms like, "No cover box included" -or- "Our distributor does not provide a cover or box art" -and- THE NOW CLASSIC LINE, "Tape comes in a plain white box. Please ask questions before bidding." Translation of this quote SCREAMS out "BOOTLEG"! (You know who you are!), when in all actuality it's one CON ARTIST with one hand on the VCR record button and the other halfway in your wallet. Any SHMUCK can dupe a video and hide behind the Berne Act -and- say, "Movie is believed to be in the public domain in the U.S. and free of any copyright laws." This movie is in FACT owned and copyrighted by New World Pictures. I have seen other sellers (THIEVES) dealing illegal bootleg copies of this movie on eBay in the past. These sellers are churning out these make-shift vids week after week to suck you into buying them. Now they are resorting to offering ILLEGALLY duped DVDs. You BOOTLEG PIRATES know who you are. This is one of the ONLY 'LEGAL' ones available on eBay (with an original box) as of the time of this listing. So, if you're looking for the true original with original box art, then this is it! It is not difficult to figure out who these bootleggers are. They have the same exact titles week after week! BUT also BEWARE of sellers using inkjet copied covers of the box too, which may have some up now on eBay! You will be able to tell the difference. FOR SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY! *BONUS* There are previews after the film for other releases available on this label which include: "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", "Lord of the Rings", "The Best of Benny Hill", "Heartland", "Death on the Nile", "Paul McCartney and Wings Rock Show" and "The Tubes Video". Since this is long gone and out-of-print, grab it while you can!BONUS!!! Includes A SURPRISE GIFT!Note: ** The SURPRISE GIFT is a used "CD" for Calexico "Convict Pool". (2004) ) ** (has stickers on the jewel case) see picture!Since this is long gone and out-of-print, grab it while you can! LOTS MORE RARE THORN EMI HBO VIDEOS!!!
