Here is some more news on Happy Birthday to me.
This news comes from DVDTalk.
*** BAD NEWS*** for fans of this flick. Sony-Columbia dropped the ball big time on this DVD release.
The entire film has been rescored. All of the original music is gone and has been replaced with a new score - including different cues and music in places where there never was any music before. Don't know why they did this and there's no mention of "music rescored" anywhere on the packaging. But it's all been changed, folks!
On top of that, it's the same old R-rated version - none of the cut moments have been restored.
I think most of us could live with the same R-rated version we've seen for years, but with all the music changed now, this is not the film we know and love. Considering Sony added the poster art insert after the fan's outcries and letter writing campaign, it's astonishing that Sony thinks they can get away with wiping out the film's original music without anyone noticing. Horror fans are a lot smarter than you think, Sony.
Another botched horror title. And they want $24.95 for it!
