I suppose that's one view. I liked it greatly and had no trouble connecting with it on an emotional level. I thought the idea was a great success.

Bought Stendhal Syndromme (Arrow), Macabre (Arrow) and Avatar Blu Ray. Only need Blood Feast 2 to complete my Arrow collection to date.

My bro also picked up Class of 1999 for me from Cash Converters for £1.50, nae bad!

there seems to be a mass dislike of Body Snatchers, but you are overlooking the abomination that was The Invasion, a shockingly bad film witha miscast daniel craig and a miscast Nicole Kidman...

I love Bodysnatchers.By no means the best version but certainly not the worst.That honour does indeed go The Invasion.

Creepshow is a odd one. People love it but I just didnt get into it much.

I just put Piranha 2 in the dvd player and gave it a little spin.Jesus!,where did Columbia find the print they used for the dvd? In bin under a pile of rubbish? Awful,awful picture quality

The UK MIA release isn't much better. Fullscreen and sourced from a VHS print, though the animated menus are nice (and it has the Flying Killers title).

I just saw that the Japanese disc is fullscreen like the R1 but also has the original poster art and the title of Flying Killers.I might get that too,if the Italian disc isn't anamorphic. dvd.it says it is but I'll wait for confirmation from Reaper before I decide what I'm going to do.
