If this is reasonably priced I might get it. Only version I have is on VHS.
|
I'm going to agree with "No Within the Woods=No Sale". I don't care how amateurish and shitty it looks, it's a part of The Evil Dead history and it needs to be included, period. There are no possible extras at this point they could include that we don't already know everything about. I'm sure the two versions of the movie they are touting is just one OAR and one hack-ass widescreen. This would have to be a VERY special package to get me to double dip again.

It wouldnt be very ultimate if it didnt include everything related to ED. Like WtW.

If this includes the 1.33:1 version of the film and the matted widescreen tilt n scan version. I will definitely buy this dvd. Also it would be nice if the original mono mix is also included if this is too be an 'ultimate/definitive' edition.

Especially for Army Of Darkness, considering how many releases this series gets. |
somebody correct me if I am wrong, but regarding AoD, my understanding is that anchor bay does not have the rights for the cult-famous Sci-Fi channel version, which I much prefer to the theatrical cut and is even a little different than the DC cut that AB released, i think for a few scenes, that AB put out. I got the R3 version from MGM and it's the Sci-Fi version and an incredible transfer - complete with the original unhappy ending (the happy ending is included as a bonus). No commentary, but I am happy enough with this that I might sell my A/B "limited edition" 2 disc set..
Does anybody know of plans to release this sci-fi channel version on HD? |
But, what's really most important in the grand scheme of things is...
What is Xage's feelings on this whole matter????????????? |
I just picked up the Elite release a few weeks ago. Oh well, I only paid a couple of bucks for it. I'll wait for reviews before I buy but I'll probably bite no matter what.
I'm in the minority when I say I enjoy this one more than pt. 2 |

True, but it is currently on Amazon used for $19.50 and will continue to drop. I like the movie enough that I was willing to pay $20 for it.

I'm actually happy about this! I never got around to buy the Book of the Dead edition since it was always too pricy. The only Evil Dead movie i have is Army of Darkness : Boomstick edition.
So i'll be picking this up when it comes out for sure! I'm glad i never dipped in the first place! |
Eh, I'll have to see what the specs are and read some reviews before I would pick this baby up. I'm still happy with my Elite dvd, I just listened to Bruce's commentary for like the third time just last week.

ps) are the Book of the Dead editions OOP and worth anything?
|
|
Sweet....I've been looking forward to Hatchet!!!!! :clap:
|
Does that say 3 disc?
oh yeah. |
So much for the edition that was rumored a long time ago that was supposed to be packaged in a cabin. Unless the picture quality is drastically improved upon (and not sure how much it can be), I won't be dipping again.
