What's it going to take?

Why on earth is this not on DVD yet? We're not asking for much, just a nice widescreen copy of this gem. The film has a riveting storyline, fine acting, gorgeous scenery, and a hauntingly moody atmosphere provided by director Heston and his composer, Ken Wannberg. What more could you want?

Need this on DVD or Bluray!!!

Good story and very creepy performances and atmosphere. Really want to see this on DVD or Bluray!

Haunting, Unique Film on Man's Lust for Gold

I first saw this movie in the theater as a boy with my father. It's stuck with me ever since and remains on the list of my top ten favorite films. Fortunately I was able to pick up an old VHS copy several years ago.

Remote Mountains, Eerie Mines, Mysterious Bagpipe Music Drifting through the Misty Woods, Rapelling into Bottomless Mine Shafts, Crashing Float Planes into Frigid Lakes, Gold!,... What more can you ask for in an adventure film? I never tire of watching this film. It is very UNIQUE! Much of the movie is filmed in actual mine shafts. It is dark, eerie, and mysterious.

General Plot (Warning some spoilers!):

The film begins with a man being pulled by the ankles from rubble inside a mine shaft by another man. You think he is being rescued. Instead the rescuer lifts a pick axe and finishes the man off. We then move to Nick Mancuso's character dramatically quiting his job as a pilot for a large mining company. You find out as he visits the home of Kim Basinger's character that their friend has disappeared somewhere in the remote mountains of British Columbia and Nick thinks he knows why... he's found Gold! Nick and Kim are then off to search for their missing friend in a rickety, old float plane. After a nearly fatal crash landing on the Stikine River, they finally arrive at a remote, mountain lake that Nick believes would be the destination of their friend. Following mysterious bagpipe music into the woods they come upon a cabin hidden deep in the dark woods and encounter Charlton Heston's character. Charlton introduces them to his "diggings", a creepy mine shaft dug into the side of the mountain near his cabin. Nick immediately suspects that Charlton has something to do with their friend's disappearance and it's likely got something to do with Gold! The race is on to find this Gold and get out alive.

I LOVE this film! I highly recommend this film to those who are looking for something out of the ordinary. It would be particularly interesting to those interested in mining, the mountains of British Columbia, Charlton Heston, Kim Basinger, or adventure mysteries!

Will never be on DVD

Mother Load will never be released on dvd or in reprint for vhs the studio I was told went bankrupt and will never release, so I bouth a used copy on vhs collector item now

Question the quality of Mother Lode

Just a quick review to say that this looks strangely like a copy of a copied VHS tape. The faces have a shiny quality to them, and the while film is not clear in any means. I hope it is released on DVD someday. I remember when I ordered this movie there was one available for way over $100. I guess that would be an original? The copy I got was $29.95. It started off with video static, then went to a Vestron Video screen, followed by the titles and the movie. I know I bought a used movie. My question is if it was a new used movie or a copy. I am giving this movie three stars because it plays. It took over three weeks to reach me and when it got here it was a little disappointing.
