Hannibal Rising ----> 5/29/07

From dvdtimes.co.uk:

Hannibal Rising (R1) in May

Genius Products LLC. and The Weinstein Company have announced the Region 1 DVD release of Hannibal Rising on 29th May 2007. This prequel to The Silence of the Lambs delves into the troubled past that shaped the malevolent Hannibal Lecter. The film marks the first script written by Thomas Harris, the author behind the best-selling book franchise and stars French actor Gaspard Ulliel as young Hannibal.

Available in its Rated theatrical version (117mins, Full Screen) as well as an Unrated version (130mins, Widescreen) with English 5.1 audio and English and Spanish subtitles, extras include five deleted scenes, commentary with director Peter Webber and producer Martha DeLaurentiis and the featurettes, Hannibal Lecter: The Origin of Evil and Allan Starski: Designing Horror and Elegance. Retail on both versions is $29.95 SRP.

This movie was actually more unintentionally hilarious than flat-out horrible.

The death scenes were brilliant in a "NOT THE BEES!"-type way, as was

Spoiler:
Hannibal with a FUCKING SAMURAI SWORD.

Didn't this just come out in theatres two months ago? These theatrical to dvd windows are getting smaller and smaller, and I don't mind one bit!

I'm more shocked that the DVD was announced two weeks prior to it's release. Only release I've ever seen do that was Brokeback Mountain.

This isn't a new announcement. It was officially announced several weeks ago.

But yeah, nobody cares.

"Hannibal Rising" was a monumental disappointment in both literary and cinematic forms. Critics hated both versions, audiences weren't interested in them either.

I have yet to hear anything good about this movie, yet I still plan on seeing it (perhaps the completest in me).

The movie was okay. Was no masterwork but some of the kills were really clever.

Hannibal was 100% Eurotrash in this movie.

Wow. Had no idea this would be out so soon. Seems like I just saw it in the cinema. I LOVE the look of this movie. So damn eerie. I'm not sure I like the cover, but it gets the job done and ties it in with the other films. Personally, I thought this was way better than RED DRAGON (the only one I didn't care for).

Out of all of them, Hannibal was the worst. I plan on picking this one up.

I saw this last night, and I thought it was pretty good! Gong Li was mega hot in it.
