The Mangler DVD - August 17th

Yup, Tobe Hooper's The Mangler will hit DVD August 17th from New Line. Also arriving the same day is The Guyver: Director's Cut and The Guyver 2. All three films will be presented in Anamorphic Widescreen and DD 5.1 tracks (The Mangler also includes DTS).
Extras include Trailers only. The Mangler DVD also features unrated/alternate scenes that allow the viewer to compare the theatrical version side-by-side with the alternate scenes.

The Mangler is awsome. I love that movie and can't wait. I really enjoyed the guyver 1,2 also. I will be picking all 3 of these up and I can't wait.

Stay away from Mangler 2 though. It has nothing to do with the original and might be considered the worst horror movie ever.

Mangler 2 = what the fuck? horrible movie.

I'll be buying the first for two reasons, it's a Stephen King adaptation and it's directed by Tobe Hooper.

Its about damn time The Mangler and The Guyver films hit DVD! As many around here know, all three films are major favorites of mine, and I'll definitely be picking them up. I was hoping New Line would include these films if they released another August horror line like last year, and am very pleased that they are! It'll be great to finally retire my videos of these three. Color me annoyed that there won't be any extras though, as given the material and people involved, there could be a good bit for all three of these films.

Anyone know how The Mangler differs from the short story?

Yeah, I read that too. I wonder why New Line isn't just releasing the dvd unrated. I have the unrated VHS that they put out a few years ago and some of the scenes are pretty damn graphic.

I'll probably pick up THE MANGLER for Tobe Hooper and THE GUYVER for Jeffrey Combs... Haven't heard too many good things about Hooper's film, but then again I love so much of his early work that I think I owe this one a shot...
