Frighteners SE DVD FINALLY???? & Competition Reminder
Lewman @ 7:43 pm EST

Oh my gawd... Could it be that Universal are busy shitting their pants at the moment on the impending signature petition that we are going to be sending them? Because DVDANGLE are reporting that there will be a SE DVD of The Frighteners released in the near future!

I have just confirmed what I have suspected for a while. Universal will be releasing a Special Edition version of the Peter Jackson film The Frighteners. While no details could be talked about "officially", you can expect to see a new 16x9 transfer as well as a few extras from the infamous LD as well as one or two original items. No release date is set yet but I am sure that they will have this disc out in time for the release of Jackson's soon to be a mega hit The Lord of the Rings. So you can probably anticipate a mid 2001 release date. Stay tuned for more details later.

If this is true then, by gawd... there will be a lot of these flying off the shelves, as long as they put the 4.5 hour documentary on too!

Also a reminder that the competiton to win a SIGNED PJ POSTER will end on the 24th November, so If you have not submitted your entry yet, hurry the hell up! :)
