Wages of Fear Criterion Reissue: October 18th
According to someone at CriterionForum.org, the re-released Wages of Fear disc will be coming out on October 18th at a SRP of $29.99. Unfortunately, they don't provide any source...but the October Criterions should be announced this week, so I suppose we'll see for sure then.
