So will the new release be widescreen or not? If it is i'll get it. If it's not, i'll just keep the earlier release that I have now.

I like the revised better. Color scheme is more in keeping with the look of the film. Plus, that last cover had been used before. Honestly, though, it could be a blank white cover with "Pumpkinhead" written on it and I'd still buy it.

I like the updated art work better also. I traded in my original dvd copy of this so I can pick up the new version. Widescreen is what did it for me. So now I'm waiting for September 9th to pick this up.

Thank God! I hope they change Child's Play too, I hated how they were just the lenticular covers that are available now.

yeah i have the foolscreen one, and will have to switch out. Good movie though, and was actually the second dvd I bought in 2001, behind Phantasm. Reason being it was only 9.99

I bought that too last year because I really wanted to watch it. I'll never get rid of it now!

Looks like no stores are carrying this. Amazon has it for 13.99, DVD Planet and Deep Discount don't even have it listed, Best Buy.com has it on backorder.

Yup, most stores around here either dont have it listed or is on backorder for a few weeks. Saves me a few bucks for now i guess. May just order online if i dont feel like going out. Barnes & Noble had it listed as 9/28 for release.

It's strange that DVD Planet & Deep Discount didn't even have it up as a pre-order.

$13.99 at Amazon? I had to pay $17.99+ shipping.
I guess I overpaid a bit, but it looks like by your posts it's either that or nothing.

Found a handful of copies at Fry's just now. It was $13.99 there. They had about 10 copies on the shelf. No slipcover or insert

MGM did the same thing last year when they released Scarecrows and The Burning... You couldn't find them anywhere and only a few online retailers carried them.

Their distrubution is so wacked.

Ditto on ordering Pumpkinhead. Though I noticed that while Child's Play was just released today it shows that Amazon won't get it in stock until October 11th.

Ordered mine off Amazon as well. Glad I was able to grab one of 3 copies of Child's Play at Target, since it won't be available via Amazon for a while.

I'm going to try my local Fry's on Thurs. Hopefully they still have a few copies left. If not the guy at DVD Planet told me they should get some in this week, he just didn't know when.

Goddamn you, MGM!

Unfortunately, the only FYC in Houston shut down a while back. Damn damn damn.

So I'm gonna have to try when I go up to Savannah next week.
