Whuh? 5-disc edition of Brain Damage on 11/24?
So I'm casually browsing the list of Synapse titles at CD Universe, and I come across this: http://www.cduniverse.com/productinf...49&style=movie Barely any info, except:
I tried finding more info on the web, but nothing. Not listed on the Synapse web site. Google didn't pull up any webzine articles or forum posts. The only other page I found pertaining to this was an even less-detailed entry at Borders: http://www.borders.com/online/store/...u=654930310595
So, has anyone heard anything about this? What in god's name could bulk this up to Blade Runner proportions? The only low-budget cult film I can think of with a 5-disc release is Subversive Cinema's Dust Devil, but it also showcases several of Richard Stanley's feature-length documentaries (and the retail price was a lot cheaper).
List Price: $99.95 (You save $35.05)
Studio: Synapse Films
Orig Year: 1988
Discs: 5
Release Date: Nov 24, 2009
Additional Info: Widescreen; With CD

I wish I found some of those in my frustrating Google searches, haha. Instead the results are either pertaining to the Brain Damage DVD company's cheapo box set or those non-official Pink Floyd DVDs with "Brain Damage" (one of my favorite songs, btw) as a track.
So, I shall leave it to someone else to gather more info on this upcoming DVD set of the Henenlotter film. I'm all googled out.

I googled the UPC number & looked for shopping options. It's actually showing up as the Pinky Violence Collection on Amazon, DeepDiscount etc.
Barnes & Noble also says Pinky Violence but it's showing a picture of Brain Damage on their site.

Well, it appears that retailers appear to have their Synapses firing in the wrong direction.

I am hoping this becomes a reality...I am getting tired of all those 3-disc barebone editions.

I got confused and thought you were talking about Peter Jackson's Brain Dead - that I could see as a 5-disc set - Brain Damage, not so much.
