Mothman Prophecies SE, what is all on it?
Does anyone know what is on the Mothman Prophecies SE coming in May? I looked on some sites like Amazon, Besybuy, etc but no one had them extra stuff listed.

DVD Talk Limited Edition
From DVDFile:
And here's a pic of the cover art:

Just in from Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment is another batch of new announcements, all streeting May 27th. Continuing their rather odd trend to release even so-so box office performers in a myriad of editions, we have a new two-disc special edition of the Richard Gere thriller The Mothman Prophecies. This one features a 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer of the film, English and French Dolby 5.1 surround tracks and an audio commentary with director Mark Pellington on disc one, and on disc two the "Search for the Mothman" documentary, two "Day by Day: A Director's Journey" featurettes, 5 deleted scenes, the "Halflight" music video, and trailers. (What, no Superbit Deluxe?) Retail is $27.95.

What's up with all the re-releases getting the "Big Head" covers. The orginal release of this had a pretty cool looking cover...much better one than the new SE.

I would've been perfectly happy if the SE had used the alternate version of that poster, with the black and white reversed. No matter... I'm allllllllllll over this one on 5/27.

Yes, that cover certainly indicates that was a supernatural thriller, doesn't it? UFOs, Bigfoot, conspiracy, a big moth that gives freaky prophecies.

Man that new cover sucks! Looks more like a romance or a Tom Clancy film than a supernatural mystery!
No biggie though. Wasn't planning to get it anyway. Just didn't think it was very good. For a movie that's supposedly about a scary supernatural entity, there wasn't much there. I think there was more scary monster footage in The Blair Witch Project.

yeah i agree the original covers usually do the trick (im not even goin to get into the SIGNS cover that shouldve been without figures in the back) why no dts? maybe ill answer it myself and guess the studio didnt feel the audio track was hot enough to justify the extra work.

I like the cover, cause it shows the brigde. That said, the only reason why I watched the movie at all was because it was filmed in Kittanning, PA, so my opinion probably doesn't mean much.
