Awesome! April is shaping up to become a really kick-ass month for genre films coming to DVD.

- Pinocchio 964
- King of the Ants
- Cronenberg's Rabid (Special Edition)
- Cronenberg's Fast Company (+ Crimes of the Future & Stereo)
- Ginger Snaps 2
- Aftermath / Genesis

BTW, is Lion's Gate at least considering re-releasing the first GINGER SNAPS in a decent edition? Now that they have bought Artisan that should be no problem at all and with the sequels coming out from them it would be a wise decision IMO.

Yeah if I were you Id just say fuck it and buy the canadian special edition. I did like 4 months ago and it kicked ass. I know I resisted buying it for a long time not wanting to deal with tracking it down but it really is worth it and the only real way your going to see a special edtion any time soon. Plus if they do do an american version it will just be a reprinting of the canadian one, so tis not like youll be wasting money.

Also is canada getting a better edition of this DVD than the US? If so then Ill wait and buy canadian.

I did a search on ebay and the cheapest one is this one

This is great news. I can't wait for this flick. And I was worried that since it's out in Canada this Friday (right? I know it was ont he release schedule of film codes my theatre gets) that we wouldn't be seeing a DVD of it here in the US till the very end of the year.

April just ain't that far away

Don't believe so, Vitus. The film goes theatrical on the 30th in Canada, I don't think there's going to be a three month turnaround to DVD for GS II up there.

I didn't think so. But hey, April ain't that long.

I gotta say though, the company that owns the chain I manage theatres for is Canada based and has a chain there too and as I mentioned above, we get codes for each film to program our systems, etc and it just drove me crazy to see Ginger Snaps II on the list this week and knowing I couldn't be somewhere to see it in the theatre.

Right you are, and I picked up the Canadian R1 of the original. It was just the way bunny phrased it made me ask if it was being released somewhere else sooner.

I took your advice and ordered it from amazon.ca today. They say it takes them 2-3 weeks to ship so it seems like they don't have it in stock, which surprised me a bit.

Anyway, I can't wait to finally check that movie out!

Well, the 2-3 weeks must've been a mistake because I just got an email saying that they already shipped my GINGER SNAPS DVD!

I bought the Canadian DVD in October. I found it quite hard to find in ANY store..
Wal-Mart didnt have it,
HMV didnt have it,
Music World didnt have it,
Best Buy didnt have it...
I finally found ONE copy at A&B Sound. Pretty damned cheap too, $14.99 CDN!
