Any of y'all have the Halloween box set from Asia? It's all in American with just Chinese writing on the box apparantely. Any further info would be appreciated.

Or does anyone know if they ever plan on having an American release for a box set?

There is only ONE 'Halloween' film...why it needs a box is a mystery.

Okay, gotta love smart ass responses.... so maybe I enjoy most of the films, I guess I apologize for that sinfullness on my part. And in my rush to cobble together a post, I said "American" instead of "English"....sue me.

Well, you could argue that there's American English, English English, Australian English, etc.

(List of English dialects)

But that would be such a smart ass thing to do.

There's a box set in the UK, because Anchor Bay UK licenced the various films from the various companies owning the rights to them. It's unlikely to happen in the US because of those varied rights.

The UK boxset is good if you just want all the films together, but you don't get the second disc of special features from the original movie.

Plus, you get H20 which is a fantabulous flick.

I got bought the original six-film Anchor Bay set for Christmas a coupla years back, which includes films one through five plus H20 (God knows where six ended up). And now they've brought out eight-film box set! What a gyp. CURSE OF MICHAEL MYERS and RESURRECTION may suck balls but I'm a completist. It's gonna be tough to have to pay for those two as individual releases-every movie-snob bone in my body'll be trying to resist.

Thanks for the info, much appreciated. As for a link I don't have one in particular, just look on eBay. There were a bunch on there over the last few days.

Of course, this refers to the spoken language.

No, it's not "smart ass" when you mangle your own language. It's also pretty damn arrogant, intentional or not.

But that's an opinion - mine. It's been said. Let's move along now.

How about the link to this Chinese Halloween set? I'd like to check it out, since I can have the ladyfriend pick one up for me.
ok...
