One of the most eagerly anticipated documentaries finally makes its way onto DVD on October 25th. Only a month after the ghastly murders of three little boys found in a West Memphis creek, three teenagers are taken into custody and instantly condemned by a retribution-hungry public. Directed by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky, the acclaimed Paradise Lost: The Child Murders At Robin Hood Hills follows the year-long trials and tribulations of the West Memphis Three, their legal eagles and the families of both the victims and defendants. Presented in fullscreen and Dolby Digital 2.0, the Docurama disc features 45 minutes of exclusive new footage, a timeline of events, trial updates and filmmaker bios. Retail is $26.95.

However some online stores like www.dvdempire.com list a October 18th release date.

I'm very happy this wonderful doc is finally coming to DVD. The sequel is also available on DVD as well.

Excellent news!!!

This was one of the better documentaries that really stuck in my mind long after it ended. Plus, friends with a keen eye who browse my DVD collection often ask me why I only own Paradise Lost 2 and not the first one.
