From dvdanswers:

MGM Home Entertainment has announced the release of The Garbage Pail Kids Movie for the 12th of July. The disc will feature an anamorphic widescreen (1.85:1) transfer, Dolby Digital Mono audio, and a theatrical trailer. You can expect the disc to retail for around $14.95 when it hits stores, and we hope to be able to bring you the high resolution artwork shortly.

Woohoo!

Glad to see it come DVD. I remember this movie making me sick when I was a kid. Very disturbing movie.

Ahh yes, fond memories both collecting the cards and watching the movie over and over.

Hmm. I had a number of cards as a kid, but I had no idea that a movie had been made.

can't wait for this movie, can't wait to pass these cards on to my kids

Holy shit!! I didn't believe this was ever gonna come out! I'm sure it sucks now, but I thought it was awesome when I was a kid. Definately gonna hafta pick this up.

I still have all my stickers. I completely forgot there was a movie made. I don't think I ever even saw it.

I remembered there being a movie and I think I only saw it once when I was younger. I haven't seen it since, but I've always wanted to. Looks like this will be my chance.

This is an awful movie. There are better ways to relive your youth.

I have a lot of the cards too (Still like 'em) but I can't say the same for the movie.

Wasn't there a cartoon series planned around the same time as the movie but never released?

Rescued from VHS obscurity the State Home for the Ugly?

I collected the cards and I don't even remember them making a movie! How even this "film" gets out before Rad and Monster Squad is beyond me.

Mondo Kane,

There was a short lived animated series. I think it lasted roughly 6 episodes and only aired in Iceland. Copies are afloat it looks interesting...........

Cool news! I never knew there was a feature length movie.

GREATEST MOVIE EVER..... Just kidding, but this brings back so many memories from my chiildhood, and I am only 24 now... WOW

I just noticed this on The Digital Bits and I'm glad to see it wasn't an April Fools' joke (TDB's mention of it was April 1).

I used to dig the cards too but don't think I ever saw the movie. Worth a rental at least!

pretty cool rental

I can't believe the Garbage Pail Kids is coming out? I never thought this would happen. I remember makingf a thread about two years ago bout this. They should have at least added the cartoons as special features seeing those will probably never be seen again.

I saw this movie when I was probably about 9 on video one day...at the time I declared it the worst film I had ever seen along with Halloween 3...and you know what..i think it still is...JUST AWFUL

What do you think of Halloween 3 now?

He tries not to.

no bump for this thread.

Well I'll do it, this movie was complete and utter garbage. Never seen it before purchase, and thought I would add it to my collection. Luckily I only spent 10 bucks on it.
