These are actually already on DVD, because they are being sold on Ebay. I think they might be Canadian releases or something, because I've never seen them around here. Oh well, I'll wait for these ones now. I'll probably wind up getting the Angel Trilogy as well.

DAWN AND DAY OF THE DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

NOW ALL I NEED IS A SE BOX SET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Guest El Satanico]

Finally a good release of Day Of The Dead so i can finally complete my Dead Trilogy.

 

Damnit it sounds like i'll have to replace my Dawn DVD eventhough i was happy with it. The new release just sounds too good to not get, but of course I'll be getting the expensive box set version to get Zombi.

 

I may get the new Halloween release depending on the extras. I already have the limited edition 2 disc version so un;ess it has great extras i won't

get the new one.

 

Well Meet The Feebles will complete Peter Jackson's dirty kids show collection. I need to get all of those movies at some point. Speaking of Jackson, I still want a SE of Dead Alive that includes both the edited and unedited. Hell I'd settle on a SE of just the unedited version.

[Guest C.H.U.D.]

Man, I love Anchor Bay. Besides the obvious (Dawn & Day of the Dead etc), the releases I am most looking forward to are Berserker, The Pit, The Prey, Q: Special Edition, Road Games and Silent Night, Deadly Night part 2.

[Guest Ravenbomb]

Dawn of the Dead?

*orgasms*

I still hesitate getting on elevators because of that movie

[Guest Lethargic]

I just watched the Cheerleaders last week. How in the world does that get a special edition?? It's just a porno. Which Angel is that? Is that the student by day, hooker by night Angel? I've been trying to find that for a while.

Yeah, that's what Angel it is. I scored part 2 on video for something like $3 at K Mart last year, but haven't seen the other two in a long time. Last time I saw part 3 had to be about 5-6 years ago on local TV late one weekend. I know there's a part 4 too, but I don't believe it has anything to do with the original storylines.

[Guest NoCalMike]

Dawn of the Dead & Day of the Dead Whooooooo.....so, does the box set come with all the the versions, or is there 3 seperate thing to buy, (theatrical, extended, Zombi/Euro) I hope the box contains all of them.

Halloween 25th anniversary sounds good, however I hope there is actually NEW features, and not just mixNmatch stuff.....
