The Wicker Man pre order up:
http://www.zavvi.com/blu-ray/the-wicker ... 93623.html
Seems its only the theatrical version (unless the specs change):
http://www.zavvi.com/blu-ray/the-wicker ... 93623.html
Maybe the DC will be included in SD?

Don't think the specs have been announced yet http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=10850 if you want the steelbook i'd pre-order now, Zavvi's recent Roger Rabbit steelbook sold out quickly and is now going for upwards of £30 already.

Re: The General HD Releases Thread!
Thanks - ordered, though I'll be very surprised if its actually limited to 3000 as I read.
Theres no way the DC will look good in HD as it sadly only survives on 1" tape

Re: The General HD Releases Thread!
Looks to be the same as the French release except for this addition: "The Making of a Thriller – A documentary on the making of Dressed to Kill featuring writer-director Brian De Palma, George Litto, stars Angie Dickinson, Nancy Allen, Dennis Franz and more!"
Arrow are VERY hit 'n' miss so I wouldn't rush out to pre-order an 'upgrade'.

I believe so. Doubt it's something I'd bother to watch again though.grim_tales wrote:Wasnt The Making of a Thriller also on the R1 SE?

Some posts on the forum are saying the transfer is taken from a scan used last year for cinema re-release I think.

Decent actioner plays like DIE HARD in a hockey arena. Plenty action, though the stunt doubling is very poor. Don't think I'd bother to import this one. Might wait for a local release.saltysam wrote:Van Damme's Sudden Death coming to Germany in July

Re: The General HD Releases Thread!
mentions 20th Anniversary in the listing so hopefully it'll be something special.

Hope so... but can't honestly see Universal bothering. I'll just be happy if it's the NC-17 version.saltysam wrote:mentions 20th Anniversary in the listing so hopefully it'll be something special.
