Obsession – The BD Specs
THE LOVE STORY THAT WILL SCARE THE LIFE OUT OF YOU Obsession. Def: A Compulsive, often unreasonable idea or emotion High melodrama, creeping insanity and barely contained delirium abound in this dizzying tribute to the high tension thrillers of Alfred Hitchcock from director Brian De Palma (Carrie, Scarface, Dressed to Kill) Michael Courtland is a Southern gentleman who seems to have everything - A successful business, a beautiful wife and an adoring young daughter – until a botched kidnapping tears his world apart leaving him widowed, bereaved and bereft. Years later on a trip to Italy, he meets a woman with an uncanny resemblance to his late wife but all is not how it appears as a twisted conspiracy threatens to unhinge his mental shackles, sending him to the knife edge of MADNESS! A master class in mounting unease and clammy palmed claustrophobia, Obsession is a classic 70s thriller with an evil twist that will leave you speechless. SPECIAL FEATURES: - Brand new High Definition transfer of the film (1080p) - Original LPCM Mono Audio and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio audio options - 4 panel reversible sleeve with original and newly commissioned artwork - Two sided fold out poster - Exclusive collector’s booklet featuring an essay on the film by critic and author Brad Stevens - Available for the first time!

The Arrow catalogue which is found in the recent DVDs states that this will be available on both DVD and Blu-ray. How come it's only being released on Blu-ray?

I thought this was coming out on dvd as well. I don't have a blu-ray player yet and have most of the arrow dvd's. Now i'm not happy as i'm a big fan of brian de palma films |
