Goddamn, who would have guessed that '09 would be such a good year for horror fans?

And for those of you wanting more AB titles on Blu, see my post in the HD forum. Some VERY good stuff is in the pipline.

Excellent! The replacement music on the previous DVD sucked hard boiled eggs.

Glad to see Anchor Bay appears to be waking up from hibernation.

Re: Happy Birthday To Me re-release 10/13

They must have gotten a big deal with Sony/Columbia Pictures since they're also putting out Hardbodies and Spring Break. Wonder what else might come out?

I have the old laserdisc of Happy Birthday To Me, then I got the DVD for 2 bucks at Big Lots just because I was curious about the music changes. It seems to be a 'temp track' print before the actual music was finished- quite odd.

Re: Happy Birthday To Me re-release 10/13

i wonder if it will also include the previous disc's wrong "temp" track as well (not that anyone really wants it). That temp track version is now the rare one! Ha!

I haven't seen this in a few years. I first saw back in high school because one of my friends had it on VHS.

GREAT news indeed! I love the original score - very creepy and atmospheric. So glad to hear it (and the original poster art) will be included.

I've never watched this, but I will probably Netflix it. The artwork is a big improvement over the last version.

This has been on Comcast's On Demand service in high-definition, so here's hoping a blu-ray release is planned, as well.

Re: Happy Birthday To Me re-release 10/13

DeepDiscount has this up for pre-order & with a LIMITED TIME EXCLUSIVE OFFER!
"To help celebrate its release on DVD, for a limited time only, each copy of the film comes with six balloons featuring the unique instruments of death used by the killer! That's right, you get a cult classic with death balloons! Does it get any better than that?"

Photobucket

It's currently only $9.16. So not only is it cheaper than Amazon but you also get these cool balloons as a bonus! I already put my order in for this.

I'd be more tempted if this was uncut and/or included extras.
