For obsessive sorts like myself, it's interesting to note when a film has been released on home video in other regions of the world, but not in the U.S.
George Armitage's Vigilante Force is such a title. It was never released on home video in the States until
the recent MGM MOD DVD-R. However, it was released by Warner Home Video in the U.K. in the early '80s, at a time when UA properties were distributed there by Warner. Not sure why CBS / Fox (who handled UA titles Stateside, at the time) never released the title over here. Aside from the colorful, pulpy key art (I own this obscure one-sheet) I like the prominent placement of the "paperclip" UA logo on the cover and spine, which I don't really recall on U.S. video covers, probably because of the MGM / UA merger.
