uh..there probably isn't one with this release, online or otherwise.

Why is this and Child's Play so hard to find in stores? I've been to Walmart, Best Buy, Circuit City, Barnes + Noble, and Target. I managed to find 2 copies of Child's Play at Target, but no Pumpkinhead. Also, DeepDiscount doesn't even have it listed for sale??? WTF?

If you check the Border's website, it describes it as having a lenticular slip cover. But I'm afraid it will arrive without it or it will be damaged.

From what I've heard the Pumpkinhead DVD does NOT have a slipcover.

You know, I think people are just assuming it comes with a lenticular slipcover because of the original cover art, it was very similar to the re-release MGM put out last Oct (the same fullscreen dvd just with a lenticular slipcover)

Once they changed the cover art, maybe they just dropped the slipcover.

It's not a big deal, at first I was wondering why, but I got over it.

Back in stock at amazon

Picked up a copy at Fry's last night. Watched it. Transfer looks good, audio sounds just fine. I'll probably get around to the extras tomorrow.

Any news on Blu?
 
Has anyone out there heard any rumblings of a Blu ray disc of Pumpkinhead in the works? Horrorhound magazines retrospective mentions it but I haven't heard a peep otherwise. How about Child's Play too?

It looks like Pumpkinhead has finally hit stores. I just picked up my copy at Best Buy. No slip cover there, but I'm still holding out hope (I love lenticular covers). Has anyone seen the lenticular packaging at any store? Maybe its a store exclusive.

I found it Wal Mart last night.

I'm up in Halifax here and I haven't seen it anywhere. I've been all over town since it was released last month and haven't been able to find it anywhere.

I found only one copy at my Wal-Mart so I quickly grab it. Don't know why there ain't enough copies at all the stores.

I've seen the DVD at various local record "chains" here in Northern California.

Is this worth a blind buy? I'm considering getting it from DD with the sale.
