That THX dvd is the one I own. Seriously watching that on upscale is better than the BU blu-ray.

Hi everyone,

Arrow have just sent us some news regarding this release. Unfortunately, the release date has been put back a week to the 3rd December for final checks.

Furthermore,

The Blu-ray will include seamlessly branched options to play the film three ways:

1. ‘Zombie Flesh-Eaters’: with the English opening and closing titles and the on screen title ‘Zombie Flesh-Eaters’ as it was originally seen in UK cinemas

2. ‘Zombie’: with the English opening and closing titles and the on screen title ‘Zombie’ as it was originally seen in US cinemas

3. ‘Zombi 2’ with Italian opening and closing titles with the on screen title ‘Zombi 2’ as it was originally seen in Italian cinemas

The DVD will not have this function as by doing so would have comprised the SD feature encode.

Finally, both sets are 2 disc sets (2 Blu-rays / 2 DVDs) the special features are as follows (all extras in HD with uncompressed audio on the Blu-rays):

- A brand new high definition restoration of the original negative

- Optional English SDH subtitles

- Audio commentary with screenwriter Elisa Briganti, moderated by Calum Waddell

- Audio commentary with Fulci biographer Stephen Thrower and horror expert Alan Jones

- UK exclusive introduction to the film from Ian McCulloch

- “ALIENS, CANNIBALS AND ZOMBIES: A TRILOGY OF ITALIAN TERROR” – Actor Ian McCulloch remembers his three classics of Latin horror lunacy - ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS, CONTAMINATION and ZOMBI HOLOCAUST

- “FROM ROMERO TO ROME: THE RISE AND FALL OF THE ITALIAN ZOMBIE FILM” – Veteran Fulci screenwriters Dardano Sacchetti (THE BEYOND) and Antonio Tentori (CAT IN THE BRAIN), celebrated UK critic Kim Newman and filmmakers Luigi Cozzi (CONTAMINATION), Ruggero Deodato (CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST), Russ Streiner (NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD) plus many more share memories of the genesis of corpse-crunching cinema - from Romero's early templates to the gory glory days of Fulci and his many successors.

- “THE MEAT MUNCHING MOVIES OF GINO DE ROSSI” – The special effects magician behind many Italian splatter classics talks about his most famous gore-drenched greats - and shows props from many plasma-packed masterworks - including ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS, CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD, THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY, CANNIBAL FEROX, BURIAL GROUND and PIRANHA II.

- “ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS - FROM SCRIPT TO SCREEN” – Dardano Sacchetti shows key pages from his original ISLAND OF THE LIVING DEAD screenplay.

- Trailers and TV spots

- Collector’s booklet featuring brand new writing on the film by Fulci biographer Stephen Thrower, a new interview with star Olga Karlatos by Calum Waddell, a history of Zombie Flesh Eaters and the BBFC by Craig Lapper, one of the board’s senior examiners, and extracts of the original ‘Nightmare Island’ 1978 script including unfilmed, alternate, and more gory sequences as well as a Lucio Fulci CV compiled by Jay Slater.

I can wait a week! I was wondering if it would have the onscreen title of ZFE. This is even better. :)

When it's a fantastic package like that, waiting another week is fine with me :cool:

A week!? An entire week!? Screw you Arrow.

*gets in fetal position and begins to cry*

Shame about the minor delay but its really cool that all three titles are being included

Oh, mine should be shipping from Amazon soon then. :happy:

:crazy: :doh:

Greetings!

Sounds like the ultimate edition of Zombie Flesh Eaters to me! :happy:

Greetings!

It´s been a long, LONG time since i saw a version that said "Zombie Flesh Eaters" on screen. I was hoping that this would be included, but surprised we´re gonna get all three by branching. Worth the wait :)
