Here is the New England Patriots Printer Friendly Document from their website the day after...

Halloween II: 30th Anniversary on Blu Ray Disc. Includes Bonus Out of Print Documentary!


Amazing...

X-Men: First Class (September 9th), Thor (September 13th), Star Wars Blu-Ray (September 16th), Bridesmaids (September 20th) and Transformers: Dark of the Moon (September 30th) are all coming out this month and the one I am most excited about is a less heralded Blu Ray Disc. It's also a movie wasn't even made this century.

It's Halloween II: 30th Anniversary Edition (September 13th). Why? Well other than the fact you think I have terrible taste in movies, it's because of this below...


Terror in the Aisles was horror documentary made in 1984 and hosted by the two most known genre actors at the time. Donald Pleasence (Escape from New York, Halloween) and Nancy Allen (Carrie, Dressed to Kill) hosted this fete of splices from prominent horror films of that day by asking 'What Scares You?'

This production was bypassed on DVD and only existed in a VHS and a Japanese import laserdisc. During my seven years at Big Emma's New and Used Laserdiscs, I never came across the latter. For only $14.99 + tax, I can finally retire the VHS and that transferred-onto-DVD copy copy I own.

This two movie pack have a combined age of 57 and oddly enough, the horror films featured in Terror in Aisles used a lot of fake Ketchup of the Heinz variety, I assume.
