New York Ripper Special Edition

Crystal Plumage · 07-06-2009, 01:05 PM

Together with the BD release of NYR, Blue Underground is releasing a new Special Edition of this Fulci classic.
Will this be the corrected version? Anyone know? If so, this is going to be mine

I wasn't aware there was an "incorrect" version.Admittedly I am not the biggest fan of this flick,(I do have the original Anchor Bay version tho'). I find the characters and their deaths mostly dull and uninspiring.Was the first release trimmed in some way?

wat is incorrect about the current version on DVD?

Yeah, Im confused as well. I prob, wont double dip on this cause I didnt like the film in general that much. So, we have to have some really BITCHIN features to get me to buy another copy.

Well, this is what I meant:

Quote:

R0 America- Anchor Bay/Blue Underground - No cuts (93:07 NTSC). One scene (approx. 15 sec) is misplaced: Approx. 44 minutes into the movie when Hedley and Malco are outside the hospital talking, Hedley drives off - this should cut to a shot of Malco walking off, then turning and the frame freezes (this is designed to make Malco look suspicious, like a red herring). The shot is, for whatever reason, suffled to the end of the film in between the footage of Malco, Hedley and the girl in the police car and the stuff with the kid crying in the hospital. For some unknown reason, the shot from the earlier scene crops up there, interrupting the flow of the final scenes and creating a continuity flub since he is wearing a different suit of clothes. (Thank you for this info to Troy Howarth, and some screencaps can be found here: http://schnittberichte.com/index.php?ID=1498 ).

Never mind the double post, it's great news.
At least BU takes the trouble to correct these minor flaws. Be it a little late

Seems to me when they do a Special Edition of Deep Red or Suspiria .... then... well one can only hope

I am excited that NY Ripper is getting a SE DVD finally since it is one of my favorite Lucio Fulci films. I can't wait to see it in Hi Def (BluRay).

Deep Red has a chance of being redone since it is one that I have been told has a chance of being released on BluRay.

Any future releases of Suspiria will most likely be handled by The Weinstein Company who acquired the U.S. rights to the film.

Anyone else having trouble getting posts to show up? Only to have duplicate posts appear moments later.

CrazyFatEthel · 07-06-2009, 07:31 PM

Ehhh, I'll pass.

Do you know if the audio will be restored as well?
In the AB version the coroner's talking about the woman's "joy trail" but in the trailer he clearly says "vagina".
