Re: Death by Double rifle

I have a copy.

Like other I am mixed on the video, I really parts of it, but don' like others. I did like the idea of a long safari with only double. That elephant charge was sure exciting.

Not that I am a great shot or anything but there really were some questionable shots taken. Makes me wonder why there were left in a movie to be sold...

Also, not to sound snobbish but there is really something I don't like about the "tone/style" of many of the safari videos (say like the M. Sulliven ones...). Its just that the corny naration and music reminds me of those cable monster truck rally adds you see late at night (you know the ones, "SUNDAY!!!SUNDAY!!! ONE DAY ONLY, SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, SEE THE AMAZING TRUCKS CRUSH 20 YUGOS!!! or something to that effect), or the format of professional wrestling on pay for view. Its just when I think of Africa and double rifles, I think of TR, the Blixens, Hemingway and Ruark, not of monster truck rallies and professional wrestling...

Just my thoughts
