Hi Rich,

Well, I guess I missed the boat on this one. All I know is that I had a heck of time trying to find this video. And I did indeed try. Virtually every video store I have been in over the last five years I always made it a point to check out the "Z's" and all I ever saw was "Zulu" and "Zabrieski Point."

Anyway I checked out some video sites last night to see if it is easier to find. Reel.com and Blockbuster.com listed it among their inventory but both said it was not available. Videoflicks.com, the retailer I ordered it from, has it for $9.99. And I did find a UK site which had a huge advertisement for it- "Zulu Dawn- Available 3/99!" I noticed that the video box art at this site was based on the film's theatrical posters that I remembered seeing in Ireland in 1980 and not the cheesy stuff comparing the movie to "Gone with the Wind" and "How the West was Won" which can be found on my copy.

Anyway I admit my error which was born of the frustration of not being able to find this film.
