Trancas International Films, Compass International Pictures, and Halloweenmovies.com are proud to announce award winning cinematographer Dean Cundey is superving the new high definition transfer of John Carpenter’s Halloween for the upcoming 35th Anniversary Blu-ray!



Anchor Bay sent joblo the following email regarding the news:

Carpenter himself added the detail that their reunion was for a new commentary.

It would be very nice if they'd include the "extended edition" of the film on the disc, which was released on DVD by Anchor Bay back in 2001 but can't be found on current discs. We'll keep you informed as more info on the new edition comes in.

It would also be nice if they reverted back to the same restoration of the 1999-2000 DVD, in terms of the look of the film. The DVD's & BR that came out nce then, have been ran through filters to give the film a more pristine look, erang all the dark blues & oranges.

This is nice but I hope they add new special features to this new edition. As well I'm hoping the Blu Ray veron is Blu Ray quality unlike the prior release.

Yep, I just saw that. Best move they could have made. Maybe I will pick it up, after all.
