Is this a good DVD to own, I never saw it. The Arrow hasn't reviewed it! What are some other must have Horror DVDs.

this along with the From dusk till Dawn DVD is a must have for any horror fan...

Its so loaded with good stuff. Youll know everythign you gotta know about this film, plus it has some really decent deleted scenes, like for example some stop animation that they never used on the film, also some cool interviews with guys like Rob Bottin.

This ones a gotta have dude!

The Exorcist Special Edition is a must have DVD, not only for the infamous spider-walk scene, but because the BBC documentary The Fear of God: The Making of the Exorcist is the most comprehensive behind-the-scenes doc I've ever seen.

It features interviews with all the principal actors, William Friedkin, Peter Blatty, as well as the priests who served as consultants, special effects supervisors, publicists, and key personnel involved in the making of the film. It contains footage of the original demon make-up tests, Blair/Burstyn screen tests, and first hand accounts of moviegoer reactions when the controversial film premiered...lots of really great bonus material. Buy it now.

The Thing is one of the best put together DVDs I've seen in my two years of collecting them. Buy it instantly!

Also, this really belongs in General Horror Talk, so I'm moving it there...... http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

The commentary with Carpenter and Russel is GREAT!
