THIS MONTH'S SPECIAL EDITION DVD 15/2/06

This month's Special Edition DVD: I've been lucky enough to get a chance to view the 2-Disc Director's Cut (Rob Zombie) Unrated "The Devil's Rejects" on Region 1. Having seen "House Of 1,000 Corpses" and read a bit on the way the film studios treated the film (shelved for a couple of years - film exec's, eh?) I can only presume that the first film gained a cult following and made enough cash to warrant a sequel. I thought Sid Haig was superb in the first film and I feel this follow-up is an even better film. Not only does it showcase Sid Haig's considerable talents, as well as the rest of the fine cast - It also come's across as an unrelenting nightmare of horror from the opening titles to the final credits. There are some very nasty and fairly uncomfortable scenes in this film and all filmed in a hazy glow of 7o's acid kitsch with a soundtrack to match. I would go for this Special Edition to get the full impact. DISC 1: Contains the following - Unrated Widescreen Director's Cut Version/Audio Commentary with Director Rob Zombie/Actor Audio Commentary with Sid Haig, Bill Moseley and Sheri Moon Zombie/Blooper Reel/The Morris Green Show - "Ruggsville's # 1 Talk Show"/"Mary The Monkey Girl" Commercial/"Spaulding Christmas" Commercial/"Cheerleader Missing" - The Otis Home Movie/"Satan's Got To Get Along Without Me" - Buck Owens Video/Deleted Scenes/Make-Up Tests/Matthew McGrory Tribute/Still Gallery/Theatrical Trailer And TV Spots/6.1 DTS ES Digital/5.1 Dolby Digital Surround EX. And if that little lot wasn't enough, on DISC 2: You get a 2 hour plus "30 Days In Hell: The Making of The Devil's Rejects". Where you go behind the scene's of the film from the beginning to the last day of shooting.
