Product Description

30TH ANNIVERSARY COLLECTORS EDITION ON DVD FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE UK! An original TV dramatisation of one of the most monstrous crimes in world history the slaughter of 6 million Jews by the Nazis. Dramatically and definitively, the story covers an entire decade, the eventful years from 1935 to 1945. HOLOCAUST focuses on the tragedy and triumph of a single family the Weiss family. Their story is told in counter-poise to that of another fictional family, that of Erik Dorf, who portrays a Nazi aide to Germany s infamous Heydrich. Starring a brilliant international cast and filmed on location in Berlin and Vienna.


Synopsis

HOLOCAUST is award-winning tense and deeply disturbing dramatisation of the horrific Nazi crimes of the second World War. The story line focuses on two German families, one Jewish, and one which thrived under the Nazi regime. Featuring a highly acclaimed international cast, and filmed on location in Berlin and Vienna.

1.0 out of 5 stars Holocaust TV Series Dvd , 12 Nov 2008
By General Zod "Lorenzo from Belfast" (Newtownabbey, County Antrim,N.Ireland United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
from Belfast

I've just bought and watched this because it's taken so long to get onto Pal Dvd.
I totally agree that the absence of extras and subtitles is disgraceful. That's only
part of my complaint. The picture quality is absolutely and utterly pathetic, I own
the vhs tapes on this series, I was delighted to see it released on dvd at last!
The picture quality is barely better than the vhs! I feel really cheated here.
What is the reason for such awful picture quality?? Revelation should be ashamed
of themselves for this release! Why was it not properly restored???
A great series ruined - what a waste of money! don't buy this!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars No extras whatsoever !, 23 Sep 2008
I simply cannot understand how one calls a set of DVDs a "30th Anniversary Collector's Edition" that comes with no extras whatsoever. Not even having put subtitles onto it is in my eyes a disgrace. Taking into account the importance of the Mini-Series it's just apalling. Otherwise it's a landmark TV-Series that deserves to have treated better.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dire Transfer For A Great Series, 20 April 2009
By Scott Hart (Edinburgh, Scotland United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
  
I bought this as a gift for my parents who had greatly enjoyed the series in the 1970s. A few months later I borrowed from them only to discover that there was no sound on the opening titles in part 1. The sound kicks in when the drama begins but the start of the programme is spoiled - anyone else have this problem? I would have returned it but it was out of the 30 days guarantee. However, overall, it is a rather shoddy product compared with so many other DVD boxsets.
