Anyone seen any reviews for R2 American Werewolf in London yet?

Total Film magazine had an *exclusive* review a couple of months ago, but I dunno how accurate it wil be, as disc specs sometimes change for actual release.

It worries me that this will be a Universal release. Can we expect a booklet this time? Will it even be anamorphic?

Have a look on www.michaeldvd.com.au for some reviews on the R4 version which is out already, and is also coded for R2.

Go for the R1, the DTS track is s'posed to be much better than the DD one.

John Landis and the cast were on Richard & Judy last night and he said it has DTS 5.1.

Richard & Judy also said it was their favourite film of all time! and that they forced their kids to watch it when they were small.

Sound doesn't bother me so much as I don't have a fancy speaker set-up. I'm thinking R2 because of the potentially better picture quality...

I could hear little difference between DTS and DD 5.1 (I switched between them on the moor scene)..

Is there any reason you don't want the region 4 version? It also has a PAL picture, only costs £12.06 from www.dvdcrave.com including p & p, and will play in a region 2 only player. The cheapest R2 is £14.99

DVD Crave don't take Switch... and the R4 picture isn't meant to be great (however, I guess R2 will probably get pressing of exact same disk).

I got R1 and the pressing isn't that bad I thought... :confused:

Nice 1.85:1 16x9 and DTS sound :D
