I saw the announcement for BD and was wondering if was also going to be released on DVD. Great news for a great film.

I'm in for this one, for sure. A double-dip that's well-past-due, and well worth the wait.

Good. Primal Fear is a great model of how to construct a screenplay, hitting the exact marks at the right time and hiding it well. I look forward to this new release.

Thank you for the link.
It is different and I don't like the cover.
It doesn't fit the movie.

Great movie (love that surprise twist) - horrible cover. Too over the top.

That cover is way too cluttered. Still, I give them points for trying something different than the usual Photoshopped-heads crap.

Yeah, when every other cover out there is just a bland Photoshop mess, I think it's important to give at least a little credit to something that is an inspired Photoshop mess. Really, though, as someone who admittedly has not seen this film, I think that maybe the cover would be great without the captions on the polaroids, the red sticker at the bottom, and the quote under the title.

I don't think this movie has ever had all that great cover art.

I went the cheap route and got the dvd for $9.99 at Best Buy. The packaging is pretty cool. The dvd comes in a clear case and is packaged inside an "evidence" zipper bag. To no one's surprise, my Best Buy didn't have it on the shelf. They received a grand total of 2 copies, both of which were on the blue shirt's little restocking cart.
