Normally I don't mind the subs if it's an Italian track (my Italian is not bad but not perfect so they are handy since my French is very good) but I can't stand French subs with an English track...

Cheers for the info bdc. I thought that the English would be in short supply on those.

Couldn't have put it better myself D.
I've got the R1 version of THE EXORCIST,the first release.Is this untampered with?
****ing French Connection is one of my faves as well

The DVD release, which I believe is the 25th Anniversary Edition, has had very minor retouching as far as I know, but nothing major - the most noticeable alteration is when Karras is possessed by the demon, it's far smoother than in the original version and has obviously been achieved digitally. This is the only alteration I really noticed to any degree.

That's what I find jarring about Star Wars now. It's the fact that the CGI looks horribly out of place in a movie that was made without CGI. It therefore sticks out like a sore thumb. It looks awful. Why Lucas can't see the stupidity of imposing CGI upon a film that never utilised that technology is beyond me. Lucas: it looks like shit, mate.

I have the UK editin of Halloween on blu-ray and as I have stated on here many times it looks fantastic! Every tiny detail is brought out and the colours are just amazing. Its a must own disc imo.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, BZ. I'll judge the disc for myself when it arrives and post up what I think of it.

Yes, the highdefdigest review was a bit anal, it seems most people think the quality is fantastic and for only £7 at HMV I've placed an order. After all, it is a classic

I've also got HALLOWEEN on R2.
I wonder what this Aussie 30th Anniversary edition is like
