Default Intruder

This one seemed to disappear and now reappear at Amazon for pre-order. Is there any more info on this one? I haven't bought the US version yet so I was quite happy to see it getting a UK release.

I only saw it for the first time the other night - thought it was a bit rubbish to be honest

Some fun gore gags here and there, but it was badly let down by horrible direction - be it either whole scenes shot from one boring static angle, or the occasional gimmicky camera shot that felt totally out of place when the rest of the style was so bland. If only Sam Raimi had been behind the camera instead of in front of it. A total waste of Bruce Campbell too, though I suppose he wasn't carrying as much cult hero baggage back then . . .

I love Intruder. Now while Scott Spiegel is no Sam Raimi i do love
the whole supermarket setting. And yes some shots do leave a lot to
be desired but I still find it very watchable. Hope 88 films fire ahead and
release it for us region B only users. If not, my synapse region free disc
will suffice.

That's for damn sure

There was that one scene between two of the kids rendered almost unwatchable by a couple of almost upside down tilted camera angles.

But yeah, the supermarket setting worked well . . .

Anyone know what the Bluray cover of Intruder from 88 films will look like?
Can't find any pics/images online. The release date is almost upon us and still
nothing regarding the Bluray cover

Yeah Amazon says April 1st. I doubt it's coming then. There's been no mention of it on the 88 site or their facebook page.

I'm surprised they haven't responded i this thread. 88 could quite easily clear it all up in one go.
