I ordered mine from Buy.com and only got disc one with 'Full Tilt Boogie'. This documentary is ok, but not worth $20!

Lets all write Buy.com about the f*** up. Hopefully, they will fix the problem.

I thought someone posted that there was a disc seperator in this case, you know, with a disc on either side. Have a look. I could be wrong.

From my account of a recent Fangoria convention: "[Tom 'Sex Machine' Savini] HATES the lauded behind-the-scenes documentary FULL TILT BOOGIE, as he thinks it fails to really give fans any insight, or even interview crucial players."

People say it comes in a dual amaray case (like the 2-disc T2)... the case with the hinge flap in the middle.

Some people have not been getting the middle flap ... I mean...

Got mine from Buy.com and both discs were in the DVD...but I got the box set and not an individual one, so who knows? Oddly, the Full Tilt Boogie movie is on DISC ONE and the Feature is on DISC TWO...no big deal, but you think they would have done this the other way around.

You realize that buy.com has nothing to do with this stuff being that they never take possession of their product. It seems to be a with the line that these DVDs are coming off, that is, if it is not an isolated incident.

A quick follow up to my last post:
From DVDFILE-

Second, many readers have written in about problems with the
just-released From Dusk Till Dawn special edition. There has
been a problem with some pressings of the set, where only the Full
Tilt Boogie disc has been included (the set is supposed to be
double-disc set, with From Dusk Till Dawn on the second disc).
The Buena Vista Consumer Hotline recommends that customers
who received a set with a missing disc simply return their copy to
the point of purchase for an exchange or store credit. Predictably,
future shipments of the set will fix this problem. Hold on to those
receipts, especially if you bought it online...

To be safe (and since it STILL didn't ship), I canceled my express.com order for this (the 2-disc set). I figure I'll pick it up at Best Buy B&M this weekend with the 15% preferred customer sale: it may still be a buck or two more, but it's worth avoiding the hassle of having to return a disc to an online store. I'll just make sure I check my copy out in the parking lot.

Big fat NOPE here. Got mine last night and it only had the Full Tilt Boogie Disc in there. Called Amazon and they are sending another one 2nd day air. Can't beat that. I hope the replacement one has both discs.
