i just taped this and watched from IFC. wow! what a fun little slasher flix! the characters were so much fun. the guy from Fast Times, Jason Alexander, fun as hell.

so for the ones who have the DVd now, how is the overall presentation, a/v? how are the featurettes?

This is one of my favorite slasher films.


Since IFC used MGM's print. That's how the dvd will look and sound, which is excellent.

I haven't listened to the commentary yet. But the Tom Savini featurette was pretty cool. I also loved the trailer.

WELL worth the money! I'm still in shock that they put it out...with extras!

The raft sequence is utterly insane, but I thought the rest of the film dragged quite a bit, and the characters were mostly unlikable half-wits.

I saw that it was on IFC the other night as well. Kinda pissed me off actually for other reasons... I had The Burning in my Blockbuster online queue since release last year but it was always "coming soon." Stupid Blockbuster finally get it in last month so I rent it and how 'bout that, it's shown on cable a week later. Figures...
