Let's
Go Crazy - 2:50pm
Has it really been twenty years!? Yes, kids, that guy with the
once unpronounceable symbol for a moniker is now old enough to
be your father, or even grandfather. But his name is still Prince,
and he is funky! And to prove it, Warner Home Video will release
the two-disc Purple Rain: 20th Anniversary Edition
on August 24th.
Remastered at last in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen and Dolby
Digital 5.1 surround, extras include a new audio commentary with
director Albert Magnoli, producer Robert Cavallo and cinematographer
Donald E. Thorin, three new featurettes (on the Minneapolis music
scene and Prince's career prior to Purple Rain, a second on the
making of the movie, and a third on Prince's fans, his legacy
and impact on pop culture), no less than seven music videos (four
from Prince, two from the Time and even the immortal "Sex
Shooter" from Apollonia 6), 1984 MTV premiere party footage,
and theatrical trailers for all three of Prince's Warner movies.
Retail will be $26.95.
And if you just can't get enough of His Royal Shortness, Warner
will also release two other, rather horrrendous Prince flicks,
Under the Cherry Moon and the Purple Rain "sequel"
Graffiti Bridge, on the 24th. Each is remastered
in anamorphic widescreen and Dolby Digital 5.1, and extras include
four music videos on each plus theatrical trailers. Retail? $19.95
a pop.
Flesheaters from Hell - 2:50pm
When there is no more room in hell, the dead shall walk the
earth. And, apparently, there are so many of them that only four
discs could contain it. Yes, Anchor Bay Entertainment is unleashing
a new Collector's Edition of George Romero's classic Dawn
of the Dead on September 7th, and this four disc set
(yes, four discs) just may be one of the most extensive ever created.
So, what are you gonna get? How about the film's theatrical cut,
a new extended cut and the European "Zombie" Cut (each
gets their own disc), presented in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen
with Dolby Digital 5.1 and 2.0 and DTS 5.1 surround tracks on
the theatrical cut, Dolby 5.1 and 2.0 for the Euro cut, and Dolby
mono only for the extended version, plus audio commentary with
Romero, his wife Chris, makeup legend Tom Savini and moderator
Perry Martin on the theatrical cut, producer Richard P. Rubinstein
and Martin on the extended cut, and stars David Emge, Ken Foree,
Scott H. Reiniger and Gaylen Ross on the Euro cut. Disc Four features
the new 75-minute "The Dead Will Walk" documentary (featuring
interviews with all of the above plus Claudio and Dario Argento,
Pat and Tony Buba, Zilla Clinton, Michael Gornick, Claudio Simonetti
and more), the original "Document of the Dead" documentary
by Roy Frumkes, on-set home movie footage and a Monroeville Mall
tour hosted by Romero. Other extras include five still galleries
with domestic and international advertising, poster, lobby card
and marketing materials, filmographies, a comic book preview,
a Monroeville TV commercial, and theatrical trailers, TV and radio
spots from around the world. Retail for this puppy will be $49.95.
