Hey, I just watched the UK version and it's totally uncut and looks pretty darn good. The extras aren't as extensive as I'd originally read, basically you get two trailers for Irreversible (on 18 certificate and the other 15) and six teasers (clips of the movie that don't add up to much). There...

I don't know much about PAL speedup, but that might explain the difference in running time. I ordered the British release and will recieve it in the next few days, I'll try to post comments on it soon. Jason Overbeck My Website

Hey, Just noticed that DVDBeaver has a very good review of this film at the webpage. Here's the link

There's a new Tartan dvd release (R0 PAL) of this great and controversal film next week. According to BlackStar the dvd contains alternate scenes. Does anyone have additional information on this release? Are any reviews up on the internet? Thanks Jason Overbeck My site

Hey, Another vote for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre as the scariest film ever made. I should also call attention to films that contain especially scary sequences: Deep Red - with that damn doll that comes darting out The Shining - Many scenes during the middle section of the film The...

Hey, I know one of my favoirite horror films of the 1970's: Massacre at Central High is available on dvd in England - and fairly cheap too. I strongly suggest picking that title up. Jason Overbeck My website

Thanks for writing up the disc, I love the film and look forward to seeing the dvd. Jason My Website

Hey, Persona came out on R2 DVD this week and I want to pick it up. Did anyone get it? How is the transfer? How are the extras? Thanks Jason My Website

I clicked on the individual releases of the discs at Amazon.fr and it looks like they have a French audio track with no English subtitles. This is really to bad because I love these films and would like to have better dvd versions than the ones Fox Lorber inflicted upon us. Jason My Website

Thanks for the thread, I think I'll get the disc then.

This was just released on R2 DVD and I wanted to know if it's worth picking up. What is the tranfer like (16:9)? Are the features worth spending time with? I love the movie and would be interested in picking up the disc depending on feedback. Thanks Jason My Website

The commentary by Parker is one of the more interesting ones I've heard from a major director. He is open with his discussion of the production, symbols, responds to critics (Kael in particular) and even confesses that he put in a gratuitous nude scene to cover up exposition. A very good listen...

I just watched the region 3 dvd (which is very high quality w/ dts sound and 16:9 enhanced) but was somewhat underwhelmed by the film. It takes itself very seriously (with no humor at all) and the style is too over-the-top, with non-stop wind machines blowing hair, clothes and drapes in every...

I preordered the dvd from www.dddhouse.com which is supposed to come out next thursday (it was pretty cheap too). It is 2-discs and has english subtitles. Jason My site

I believe the director's cut of Persona just has a few split second splices in the opening seconds and more (sexually) explicit dialogue during the "casual sex on the beach" monologue. I saw it about a year back at the LA Museum of Art, and it didn't make a huge difference... but it sure will be...

I went to Amazon.fr to check out these discs and it looks like they have a lot of features but no (English) subtitles on the film or extra features. So that counts me out, since I don't speak french. Hopefully we will get the same release some day in the US (yeah right) or maybe in the UK...

Over at Blackstar there is a sale on Anchor Bay movies, most are £7.99 or £6.99. Some special (R2 specific) titles and features to look at are: THe Long Good Friday (w/commentary & interview) Withnail and I (documentary and commentary) Paris Texas (commentary, not on dvd in US) Wings of...

I see that Irreversible is on dvd in France- region 2- but it has no english subtitles. Does anyone know if it has been released in any other countries or regions? Thanks Jason My website

Do the documentaries on the discs have english subtitles? And is the video 16/9 enhanced? Thanks Jason

Does anyone have the French Region 2 dvd's of The Umbrellas of Cherbourg or The Young Girls of Rochefort. They are both out in 2-disc special editons and I'm wondering about the transfers and special materials (are they subtitled). Thanks for any information Jason
