Ok im kinda confused, for the fact that it's been a long time since i saw the movie, i was like only 10 (now 22) and as i remember, wasn't the movie named Deadlock?? i saw it on ebay (deadlock) then i saw weblock. Did they changed the title?
shareOh well, i didn't see it the first time, when you make a search for weblock it gives you. Wedlock (1991)aka "Deadlock" So i guess this movie as 2 titles.
i dont remember any of those names. awesome movie!

When I first saw it on HBO in the early 90's it was called Deadlock, and I like that title better. When I heard it called Wedlock for the the first time, I didn't even know the meaning of that word. While it does make sense, I feel Deadlock is a better title, more compelling.

Just FYI, it was called Deadlock when I saw it too.
shareI'm not the only one that tought this movie was great, the movie makers from saw 3 clearly watched this movie because they also use an explosive collar which explodes if the other one dies or if you get too far apart.
shareI saw this movie when I was 9 years old and even owned a poster, it was called Wedlock and that's what it said on the poster over here in Eastern Europe
shareYour partially correct in was released in Europe and other countries as Wedlock, I woned a chain of Video stores in the 90's when the film was released in the USA, and it was DEADLOCK....I have no idea why they released it under 2 names...
sharei own the vhs and it says deadlock on it......why change the title?
shareWhats the matter with all? The movie is called WEDLOCK. You have a WEDLOCK partner If your coller explodes, your WEDLOCK partners coller explodes also. Its explained in the film, just before RH goes into prison. Why the debate?
We're gonna find out who's the Thing!

When this was on HBO all the time back in the 90s it was always "Deadlock" The first time I ever heard it called "Wedlock" was about 3 minutes ago.
shareChrist, ManThing, what does that have to do with anything?
shareWell.....Its the topic of this thread.
shareI know this is an old topic and no one probably comes here anymore.
But originally when it was first aired in the US, it was advertised and released as Deadlock. It was later changed for whatever reason, before it ever left the country, to Wedlock. There are many places still in the US that have it labeled and still sell it as Deadlock.
The name change probably came because of the thousand other Deadlock movies made in the states.
It's like how the movie "Fly Away Home" was originally advertised as "Father Goose" and then "Flying Wild" and finally as "Fly Away Home".
Deadlock or Wedlock was never advertised over seas as Deadlock, and the name change happened pretty quickly after the movie was released on VHS in the US, so most people only remember it as being Wedlock.
I'm here as well RuruShii. I've never seen this movie but the name "Wedlock" makes more sense, even though it does sound like the title for a Rom Com.
So sweetbreads are meat & sweetmeats are pastry? What a world we live in.
I always remember it being called Deadlock too. In fact when I went to search for it recently, I searched "deadlock" and couldnt find it. Had to search the actors name and look for it.
but for the nay sayers:

Deadlocked is a remake of Wedlock, not a sequel!
It was called Deadlock in North America, but it was always Wedlock everywhere else, the lovely marketing folks in the USA always like to treat their fellow Americans as if they have the IQ of a sandwich and no doubt figured that a clever name like Wedlock would not bring in as many yokels as the actiony, 'splodey name DEADLOCK!
They really are a bunch of cretins and you other Americans should hunt them down and tell them to stop f(_)cking with your film titles.
Opinions are just onions with pi in them.
