Is there a new Texas Chainsaw Massacre DVD coming out next week?
:) |
FYI, the dvd is in terrible packaging. it's in one of the old thin cases that you see budget releases in, and the slip cover is thin black plastic.
I have no interest in it, but I figure some would be interested in knowing about it. |

Originally posted by Corky Roxbury The new region 1 disc is not anamorphic, which is a shame, they could have taken 5 mintues and made the disc anamorphic, if they didn't want to bother with a new transfer |

Originally posted by ChrisHicks are you talking about the R2 version or the re-release that is coming up? |
Is the new DVD anamorphic? I was just wondering since nobody has mentioned it.

Is the new DVD anamorphic? I was just wondering since nobody has mentioned it. -sigh- Since no-one is bothering to read the links ABOUT THIS TOPIC WHICH HAS BEEN DISCUSSED BEFORE... THE REGION ONE PIONEER RELEASES, EVEN THE NEW ONE WHICH THEY CLAIM IS REMASTERED AND NEW, ARE NOT ANAMORPHIC AND THE TRANSFER IS NOT VERY GOOD IN THE FIRST PLACE. THIS FILM DOES NOT EXIST IN A GOOD-LOOKING ANAMORPHIC RELEASE ANYWHERE. STUDIOS ARE, FOR SOME ODD REASON, RELUCTANT TO MAKE ANAMORPHIC RELEASES OF 1.66:1 FILMS. THE ONLY ANAMORPHIC RELEASE OF THIS FILM IS THE AUSTRALIAN PAL R4, WHICH LOOKS WORSE THAN THE NONANAMORPHIC VERSIONS! Clear? |

I was going to buy this DVD but I'm not sure if it's anamorphic, can anyone confirm if this new transfer is better than the old version?
|
the way I have heard the re-release is just a repackaging of the original pioneer disc just with a new cover.

The ground meat cover is the Limited SE
According to Pioneer's site (they're renaming themselves to Geneon), the one with the chopped meat on the cover is the Limited SE. The black and silver cover with the chainsaw ("Amaray Packaging", whatever that means), is what will continue as the standard release. But the content is exactly the same, I believe. I thought that I should get the limited one--simply because it's limited--but I think it doesn't leave much to the imagination to see ground meat on the cover. Plus it's a little gross.

I've got the R2 copy also that was posted. I personally love it.
Gorgeous cover , great extra's and so on. |
Raw Hamburger is gross? You better not go to Meat Section of the Grocery Store then, It's full of "gross" stuff :)
|
I think this is the new cover of Poineer's R1 release:

Originally posted by malkmuz I never got the 1st version since it was so gal-durn expensive, so I will pick up the re-release for chump change. Better than not owning it at all! |
so how limited is this?
|
What is the difference between these two versions, and the Pioneer version that I have?
|
wait wait wait.....There is a new TCM dvd coming out???? when is this coming out and is the transfer a lot better than the original? I'll rpobably pick this up so I can have an anamorphic version on my shelf!
|
here we go again...
|
......but I heard it's not anamorphic. (snicker)
|
The new one will be an anamorphic Superbit Divimax SE with 6.1 DTS. It has a new documentary which includes Gunner (as Leatherface) buying the chainsaws needed for the movie at Home Depot. He was running thru the aisles screaming and spinning, customers were freaking out.

I will be picking this up, be nice to finally not have to pay close to 30 for it :)
Hmmm.. How come ddd still has the old version listed for 22, while the new re-releases are 15. Aren't they the exact same really.. |
The current Entertainment Weekly claims this is a better disc than the original release. They say it has cleaned up video and audio.
