I'll definitely buy that as an upgrade over the Criterion Collection DVD, though I don't know which artwork to display, as the aforementioned Criterion DVD has – more or less – the original poster art.

As some of you crafty people have already figured out, we are indeed going to be releasing everyone's favourite astronaut-is-reduced-to-mush movie THE INCREDIBLE MELTING MAN later this year! Time to go all gooey over the new cover art from the ever fantastic Gary Pullin.

Happy Friday everyone!!!

I used to have the RCA/Columbia VHS of The Incredible Melting Man. Does anyone know whether this was the uncut version of the film? I remember it being pretty good fun with some nice, gooey FX work by Rick Baker.

Not sure about the cut/uncut status of The Incredible Melting Man. I'm pretty sure all DVD and BD versions are fully uncut.

It's crazy, in this age of multi-million dollar budgets, to think of this being made for a paltry $250,000!

And it was spent well!
Cracking little low budget film.
Another excercise in great makeup from Mr.Baker.

QATSI Full specs:

Told without dialogue, narration, cast or characters, Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi are dizzying, hypnotic examples of cinema set to extraordinary scores by Philip Glass. The first instalment concentrates on the United States, contrasting its natural beauty with a population ever more dependent on modern technology. The second switches to the Southern hemisphere and focuses on cultures and traditions that are slowly eroding away as the modern world takes over.

SPECIAL FEATURES:

• New, restored digital transfers of Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi, approved by director Godfrey Reggio, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks
• Introduction by filmmaker and composer Gary Tarn (Black Sun, The Prophet)
• Interviews with Reggio and composer Philip Glass on the making of Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi
• Anima Mundi (1992): Reggio’s 28-minute montage of over seventy animal species, scored by Philip Glass
• Original theatrical trailers for Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi
• Illustrated collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the films by Anton Bitel, Michael Brooke, Peter Cowie and Jean-Baptiste Gouyon
