Well, the unfortunate thing is that you can't!
It's never been released on vhs/dvd/vcd anywhere and it seems to be lost. I asked Andrew Leavold about it in a post over at Dvdmaniacs and he did some digging around over in the Philippines and you just can't get it anywhere.
It is often confused with another film called DEVIL WOMAN (aka Mo Neuih) which is also a "snake woman" film and stars the same Filipino actress but they're not the same film. DEVIL WOMAN came out on tape from Something Weird Video.
Here's Andrew's info on the two films:

Hi Jack
thanks a lot for the great explanation,in fact they're 2 different movies,i have Devil Woman(french version),i was tryin' to find the 2nd one,i know that is very difficult,i know one guy that has it on cinema reel
Do you think that the movie Black Mamba could be an alternative one to Bruka...?
Thanks so much again Jack

You have a friend who has a film print of BRUKA??? Madre de dios!! If just he could get it transferred to dvd!
I wasn't even aware of BLACK MAMBA but I'm gonna get it now! However, judging from the descriptions at imdb it doesn't seem to be the same film, even though it also stars Rosemarie Gil. The reviews don't mention her as a snake woman. You can get BLACK MAMBA on a 4-on-1 dvd called BLOOD-O-RAMA.

Hi Jack
you're right,from the imdb description it seems another movie,yes this person has the movie Bruka...but it's very difficult to obtain it,he has not the cinema reel,i made a mistake but a fullscreen version subbed,i don't know where he got it.

I'm not sure I follow you. :unsure: He doesn't have a cinema print but he has the film? So does he have it on dvd-r?? If yes, would you be able to get a copy?
francesco - January 6, 2009 11:06 PM (GMT)
yes,he's has on dvd-r,cos the version is fullscreen,instead the one in the trailer is in english and wide,i really don't know where he got it,but it's very difficult to trade with him,cos if you don't have some rares that he needs he don't give anything :(

What is he into? What do you think could persuade him to make a copy??

Maybe I could help you out if there's something special he's looking for. You mentioned you have the French version of DEVIL WOMAN. I have a lbx version in English. Or something else Filipino or Indonesian?
