I've seen the movie. I'm just looking for a review of the transfer and extras, if any.

Dave from horrordvds.com came close to giving the Dead Zone his first ever A+ rating for video. I think that says a lot.

I think it has a trailer, but no 'real' extras.

I just finished re-reading the book for the first time in close to 10 years, and I'm looking forward to seeing the DVD.

Don't pay attention to everything you hear. Urban Legends was fun.

The transfer is excellent. The only extra is a trailer but I don't think this movie really needs extras. It pretty much speaks for itself. Only a Cronenberg commentary would really be nice. If you like the film then pick it up.

Yeah, I'd pick it up if you like the movie. A nice looking anamorphic transfer & a good sounding 5.1 remix. Not alot of rear sounds, but a few nice ones.

Here's my DVDTalk review:

Basically, if you like the movie, you'll love the DVD. Picture and sound quality are excellent, but there are no extras except the trailer.
