I did not include television show entries except the pilot episode of Starsky and Hutch, since that originally aired as a television movie of the week.
Also, I am a little uncertain about the Abashiri Bangaichi film series Tarantino mentions in the chapter about Escape from Alcatraz. He says there are 14 entries but other sources say 17 and 18. I found 14 entries listed here on this site and added them all, but I believe there are more.
