I've heard about this for a while but I just now heard some details on it.

The package will include a fully restored print taken from a high definition transfer of the original negative and a host of extras including: feature-length commentary with actors Marilyn Burns, Paul A. Partain, Allen Danzinger, and art director Robert A. Burns, feature-length commentary with director Tobe Hooper, cinematographer Daniel Pearl, and actor Gunnar Hansen, theatrical trailers & TV and radio spots, "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: The Shocking Truth" featurette, "Flesh Wounds" featurette, A Tour of the TCSM house with Gunnar Hansen, deleted scenes and outtakes, a blooper reel, "The Shocking Truth" outtakes, and a still gallery.

So that means they cleaned up the film? If so, I might just hang onto my OOP copy of TCM. I think the grainy look to the film helped it and a clear HD picture would make it less effective.

All the old Pioneer releases had horrible picture quality to begin with, and were incorrectly transfered. This new one is Anamorphic Widescreen, and will look the way it was always intended. Besides, you can't clean up a 16mm movie but so much, anyway.

i'll be getting that! nice bonus features for a change, some new dvds have been letting me down in the special features department

About ****ing time this movie got the good DVD release it deserves. Will be getting it on day one.

Awesome! Finally a SE of TCM.

Like C-Dic said, there's only so much you can clean up an old film like TCM for a DVD transfer, however I highly anticipate this version's release.

Hell..............f*cking.............YES!!!!!!

I'll be buying this the second it hits the shelves.

I heard about this a while ago. Wasn't there another thread on it?

Whatever. I might get it. I'm undecided.

I searched for an already existing thread, but it didn't yield any results. If there is one, I apologize.

Neat! I'm getting a copy.

Yep, can't wait. About damn time this movie gets the great DVD it deserves.

No biggie. I know you're not a noob.

I actually did find one at the bottom of the page. He he, I made it.

I seriously despise this new Search engine. I want the old one back again.

I think I will just stick to my Special Edition DVD with collector's booklett and so on that I got a few years ago.

Totally. What I do now is just use the "Ctrl + F" function on the first couple pages to see if there is a recent thread.

It's funny because BF said the same thing in both threads. I'll merge.
