Oh right. I guess I'll just go ahead and buy the Special Edition R2 UK DVD in the meantime.

What are the chances that Paramount will give us a Russell/Carpenter commentary track? I could listen to those guys shoot the shit all day.
I think the chances are pretty slim but one could hope!

I am really getting a hankering to see IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS on Blu-ray.
Hopefully it will appear sooner, rather than later.

The BD of Starman looks and sounds terrific, but it has zero extras. My full review will be up tomorrow or Monday.

One could always throw together a custom Blu-ray cover for those who own the BD of STARMAN and the UK Special Edition DVD for a 2-Disc Blu case. Alas, my Photoshop skills "suck shit"!

Advice: Buy the new Dark Star DVD. Video quality is vastly improved considering it was shot in 16mm in 1974. Colors are vibrant now for one thing. I'm watching the long documentary on disc 2 now and it is excellent. However, the menu encoding seems screwy, ie. I had to monkey around to get to the extras. Strange. But I say unto thee: get this DVD. The movie really gets me buzzing, very amusing story. The extras are great too.
