Carnival of Souls? No.
All of Mike's commentaries are good, but check out the commentaries on "Reefer Madness," "House on Haunted Hill," and "Plan 9 from Outer Space." Those are the best.

Personally, I like both "Night of the Living Dead" and "Carnival of Souls". Both are great indie films with atmosphere to spare. Can't comment on their colorization since I have no desire to watch them that way. I have been tempted by the Mike Nelson commentaries, but I've double-dipped enough in this life so far.

That Black & White shot looks great. And it's great to see the "Play in Black & White" option is now at the Main Menu instead of hidden in the Special Features like previous releases.

Ah. Didn't pick those up. Good to see both versions easily available.

Looks like those Mike Nelson commentaries won't be ending anytime soon.

Re: The Little Shop of Horrors - May 1st
Had a question relating to this movie on DVD so I thought I'd bump this old thread rather than make a new one.
Anyway, I recently saw this movie for the first time and enjoyed. I'm going to be picking up Legend's Blu of it, but I was wondering if any other DVDs had special features pertaining to the film. According to DVD Compare, there's a Madacy release that has a newsreel and blooper reel, can anyone tell me if they are any good? Any other releases have special features?
