I saw this for sale on DVD yesterday and I'd like anybody's opinion on it.

Stay away. Seven Doors of Death was the US title and EDITED version of The Beyond. Save your money.
I just bought the collectors tin of The Beyond (uncut) on Halloween from Best Buy for $14.99

Avoid like the plague. This is the censored cut of the Beyond. Go get the real deal!!!!!

It was a used copy. The cover of it caught my attention due to the fact that it was a gory cover.

Collectors tin for $15.00? Good stuff. I gave $30 for the loaded dvd. The collectors tin is $40 around here.
A CENSORED Fulchi film?! That's like a Big Mac with no meat! Saw New York Ripper uncut and I was actually surprised that the dialog was fairly decent. Not a trademark of a Fulchi film like some of the cheesy ass dialog like Gates of Hell(cool film though), or Manhattan Baby(BORING by the way even in the Uncut version). I can't believe you can find an uncut Fulchi film at BESTBUY! COOL! I need to go to a Bestbuy and see if I can score a film there! LOL!

Yeah Misfits I thought I was dreaming, so there was no way I could pass it up.
Then of course there was the "Bootleg" version of Army of Darkness for $12.99.....
TomJ, I was surprised by Best Buys selection as well, they have a very decent selection of Horror DVDs, they are slowly getting all of the Anchor Bay releases of Argento's work, and I am seeing more and more Fulci and other rare stuff. Go to Bestbuy.com and do a search on The Beyond, you'll find it!
On a side note a new mall opened up where I live and there is a store in it called Fey (I think that is right), it is mostly music but they had some movies, most of which were lame and over priced, but they did have the uncensored versions of La Blue Girl and Ledgend of the Overfiend (I don't think they know what is one their shelf lol)

Actually the Diamond version of 7 Doors of Death isn't the cut version. It says it's rated R, but that's a mistake on their part. I bought the Diamond version for like 6 dollars, then I got the Anchor Bay one and it's the same. Although the Anchor Bay Beyond is way better, it's still the same cut of the movie. But if you can find the tin at Best Buy get it. I looked at my Best Buy. No Beyond. But yeah Best Buy has a great selection. ANd it's affordable. Unlike Suncoast. $40 for the Wicker Man box??? They aren't actually supposed to sell it at retail price. A lot of stuff they have at Suncoast is $15 cheaper at Best Buy.

I love BEST BUY!!
I couldn't believe that izombie could have gotten that wicked tin of The Beyond for only 14.99 untill I saw it for myself. Needless to say I picked it up. I also got the 3-disc set of Suspiria. Wicked good times at the big yellow ticket.

The Best Buy near my house doesn't carry any Italian horror films. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/frown.gif Oh well, Best Buy.com has those films for low costs though.
Also, I was checking out Best Buy.com and they said that Seven Doors of Death is 80 minutes and that The Beyond is 89 minutes?

For you Beyond DVD owners there appears to be and "Easter Egg" on the disc:
One of the Easter eggs is a trailer for Lucio Fulci's Cat in the Brain (aka Nightmare Concert) and it's hidden in the "Images From the Beyond" menu underneath the "eye". To access it merely highlight the subtle symbol of Eibon on the right side of the screen.
The second Easter egg is in the "Audio Setup" menu underneath the ear of poor Emily. This Easter egg is what appears to be the opening of the US hack job 7 Doors of Death.
