i'll pick this up eventually, but probably a standard release.

the most intriguing aspect is that it looks like a Paramount deal so perhaps some interesting goodies can be prized out of one of the most tight-fisted studios.

I'm the same because I don't really rate the film.

Me neither.

Not all horror films from the 80's are instant classics.

Only most of them!

A Cujo update for me!

Evil bites when a monstrous canine terrorises a helpless family in this legendary cult classic. Based on Stephen King’s best-selling novel, CUJO gives horror a new name. While Donna (Dee Wallace, The Howling, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial) and Vic Trenton struggle to save their rocky marriage, their son Tad befriends the loveable St. Bernard who belongs to their mechanic. But what they don’t realise is that a bat bite has transformed Cujo from a docile pup to a vicious killer. With Vic away on business, Donna and Tad’s car trouble pushes them into a living nightmare — trapped by the demonic, relentless dog from hell.

You're not missing much. Even where the book is concerned, it's far from his best.
