Updating you on last week’s news about a Jaws 30th Anniversary Edition, we now have the complete list of specs coming with the DVD, some screen shots of the menus on the disc as well as the official Cover Art for the disc. The cover art is the same one we’re used to, expect with a little added black and looks more bad ass than the original I think. As for the the specs that are coming with the Jaws (see Arrow’s review here), here’s what’s to be expected to be packed along with one of the greatest movies of all time…

To those of us who had the unfortunate opportunity to sit through "Dimension Film’s" not Wes Craven’s version of Cursed (see Arrow’s review here), I have some good news! According to DVDFile, Buena Vista Home Entertainment Films is actually listening to it’s fans and releasing an Unrated version to be available simultaneously with the PG-13 rated version. The two editions are both set for a June 21st date with the DVD shelves. Although no "Official" extras have been announced, there have been rumors of the following to be included with the disc…

Two Hotties + Unrated = Good time! No word on if there are any random tit shots…We can only hope…
Well Kiddies, it seems as though you can finally throw away all of those Tales from the Crypt VHS tapes that we’re sitting on your closet shelf collecting unsanitary amounts of dust. It’s been a long wait for a DVD release of the hit TV series that spawned a total of seven complete seasons that included a total of 93 episodes and also producing two feature-films. The show was undoubtedly my favorite Television program growing up and I am anxiously awaiting this DVD release as you should be too! The plan is to release the first season as a 2-Disc Set. The first disc having the 6 episodes that we’re aired in Season One. The second disc will contain extra features that have yet to be announced. However, I do have the complete list of episodes, a synopsis to each and some other specs…Peep them…

Episode Four – "Only Sin Deep" (A call girl goes to a pawnshop to rob him of his jewelry. Instead the owner offers her 10,000 dollars for her beauty. She sells her beauty and lands a new job but discovers she is aging very fast)

Another update in the DVD news comes the release of the cover art for the new American Psycho: Killer Collector’s Edition.

This movie, deserves a good DVD and it looks like that’s what it is shaping up to be. If you missed the specs last week, here’s what’s coming with the American Psycho (see Arrow’s review) disc…

Okay so I used this picture in the last column, but really, is there anything more refreshing than Christian Bale holding a Nail Gun? Expect maybe if he we’re holding it to Justin Timberlake’s head…that would be a plus.
