Ummm... did i mis the post that actually confirmed part 2 was coming out on DVD?

Here is the Trioxin narration, may not be exact words.

"In the Fall of 1969, the Darrel Chemical company, under contract to the US Army, conducted a series of secret experiments with a new biological weapon called 245-Trioxin. According to reports, the chemical was a catalyst in genetic reactivation. What this meant and why Trioxin was useful has never been revealed. But one thing is certain. Trioxin was soon considered too dangerous and volatile, even for experimental use. Interest in the lethal compound was abandoned several years ago. The Army will not comment other than to say, All Trioxin has been destroyed."

Sadly I do not get,nor have ever heard of "outermax'. I only have Max,MoreMax + the east & west coast versions of those channesl,which don't count as extra channels,since they are the same,just different time zones(a rip off I think...expect for when you miss something & still have a chance to catch it later...but they charge extra for them,which is the ripoff).

Anyway if it ever airs on those channels. I would like to check it out. Even worse about our new Direct TV system. We don't get Showtime Beyond,which aired plenty of rare/obscure cult titles,most of which MGM released. Ahh how I miss that channel as I rarely if ever view the others.

Warner Brothers announced the 2004 release in an online chat with Home Theater Forum last year. No specific date has been given just yet. Maybe Halloween?

Warner Brothers participated in an online chat with www.hometheaterforum.com tonight and they announced that "Return of the Living Dead part 2 will be 16x9 (widescreen) and will be coming out in time for (this) Halloween" and that "there will be a commentary" though they didn't say who will be on it.

Great news!

Will it be the version on cable with the Trioxin intro?

Fantastic!!!

A smaller concern, but... will they release it in a keepcase so it won't look goofy between 1 and 3?

I'd bet the farm that it's a snapper...barring any policy change from WB.

So here's what we know..

www.dvdfile.com reports that the "ROTLD 2" DVD *will* have a commentary by director Ken Wiederhorn and co-star Thor Van Lingen. Theatrical trailer. Brand new anamorphic widescreen transfer. Release date is October 5th, 2004. Retails for $19.95. The case will NOT be a snapper (yay!)

Mine is already pre-ordered!

If you read reviews over at Amazon, some are indeed saying that the DVD will in fact have the new soundmix that's been included on certain movie channel broadcasts in the last year.

Hate to say I told you so.....

i just read the posts at amazon.com. oh well, $15 i will use on something else.

someone asked about this DVD at the warner chat months back but unfortunately didnt ask what soundtrack would be used, it would have been interesting to hear what the answer would have been.

I listened to the commentary for this recently with Ken Wiederhorn (director) and Thor Van Lingen (Billy). It turns out that Thor now reviews DVDs over at TheBoxSet.com and reviewed his own movie here.

That is cool news!


I still have not bothered buying the dvd though. The new audio mix is really keeping me far away from this release.

...and boy does it suck!

However, for some odd reason, the French language track has the original soundtrack on it.

i just rented and watched this last night. what a bad movie. the music was horrible. the acting..well you know. the commentary by the two were stitched together and it was almost like they wanted to so badly say this movie was such a horrible disaster when making, but they don't quite. Both Ken and the kid really sidestep so much and just talk fluff about oh look here comes this part and here is this zombie with this makeup. they seem to look back and watch and know deep down this was disastorous. just my opinion from listening anyway!
