That's what I was wondering too.

I would imagine so, I can't see Arrow going through all that again with replacement discs etc, my guess is that it'll be disc one with the correct opening


Violence is Italian Art

Again one for the Saturday afternoon shelf browser rather than most people on this site. A good Christmas present for the newbie fan.

Well said and i concur.

Indeed a suitable gift for those horror fans with less dedicated collector tendencies. But i suspect the likes of many of us here will be happy with the original Arrow releases of the relevant titles we already own. I know i am.

I agree and a good suggestion there.

Certainly a safe bet for those first exploring the rotten realms of Romero and Fulci. If you want to know why these gloriously gory guys are so respected by us hardcore horror fans then watch and learn!

Can't argue with 3 films like that all on one box set.

Indeed, for the Fulci fan on a low income you can't go wrong with this release!

Of course it will be the corrected print.

The fire at Sony destroyed the incorrect master so all copies of The Beyond (whether in this trilogy or the Arrow Video version) coming out now should be the corrected version.

Will CITY and THE BEYOND feature both discs from the Arrow version or just disc 1? The two BEYOND commentaries are mentioned in the announcement, but are the commentary tracks from CITY present?

Just checked, just the one disc, and CITY has the MacColl/ Radice com.

As above I picked up the GATES OF HELL box in HMV for £22.99, cool, great little box, nice reversable sleeves,booklet and catalog and a few extras thrown in too, good job.
