Bad Taste DVD Fucking Finally!
Lewman @ 9:01 am EST

Yep thats damn right! We are finally going to be seeing a descent release of PJ's splatter classic Bad Taste! :)

The fine guys over at Anchor Bay are apparently getting ready to release the film both on DVD and VHS in late 2001 (as if anyone is still going to be taking VHS seriously then!)

The Full press release is as follows:

SEPTEMBER 27, 2000
One of my all-time favorites will be coming to DVD and VHS in late 2001 from Anchor Bay Entertainment...Peter Jackson's debut feature, BAD TASTE.

The outrageous saga of a New Zealand town slaughtered by a sick group of extraterrestrial fast-food workers, BAD TASTE will feature numerous special edition features and will also include the A GOOD TASTE FOR BAD TASTE mini-documentary seen in New Zealand..

More details will be announced soon... Long live Crumb's Crunchy Delights!

Now as you can see not much more than the 20 minute documentary that was made on the films release in 1987 has been announced. BUT TBHL can exclusively say that there will more than likely be an audio commentary to accompany this DVD as Pete O'Herne and some of the other boys will be more than willing to record one, which will kick some serious ass :P
The big question is whether Peter Jackson will be doing this as well, remembering that he will be preparing the first installment of LOTR, I guess only time will tell! :)

Thanks to Jeremy, James and David for the cool news
