We won’t have an idea of how soon we can see this puppy in stores until we see how well it does at the box office this weekend (I think it’s gonna slaughter the competition), but I’m guessing sometime late summer, or if they’re smart, this October to capitalize on the season.
The good news is, the MPAA only made him cut 2 minutes out of the theaterical release to get an R rating- should be as nasty as it looks like it’s gonna be. Good shit! About time! The bad news… well, hell, there isn’t any real bad news. Here’s what Aja had to say about the making of featurette he wants on the DVD.
We’re also pushing to get a very long, accurate and technical 50-minute behind-the-scenes documentary. People watching that stuff want specifics. They don’t want to hear how shooting was great and the actors were happy to play the parts; that’s bullshit.
Could it be that this director actually knows what we want? He’s giving us everything we could ever want in a DVD- and can you wait for the commentary? Holy crow!
