Good Question.

[/COLOR]Does it mean it will be region locked again?

afaik anchor bay's discs always are region locked.

 

[MovieFan1982]

So if I now understand correctly, the Steelbook contains a DVD with bonus and a Blu-ray with the film.

The release will be identical to the Amaray by Anchor Bay?

It's something about the artwork known (Front, Back, Inlay)?

 

[cooey]

It'll be the exact same discs as the original release, so yeah it'll still be region locked.

 

[MovieFan1982]

Okay that sounds to me ever very good, it's really the same two discs.

But what would interest me much more is the artwork of the Steelbook.

If Anchor Bay choose for the same "green" design as their Amaray, or from Sony Pictures Steelbook "red white"?

I have my Steelbook now just pre-ordered times, since they're is a 2-Disc Edition, and because with the Blu-ray from Anchor Bay Release the aspect ratio "1.33:1" and "1.85:1 could "switch.

 

[lolwut]

This is awesome news. I never bought the UK steel because the US release has both aspect ratios. I have the Limited Edition and the fact that this is the exact same in steelbook form makes this a no-brainer purchase. Finally my Evil Dead 2 and Evil Dead Target steels won't be lonely!

 

[Geek Tragedy]

Could be cool but

where

is

ARMY

OF

DARKNESS

[denizen]

Someone should put you in charge Geek.

Then we'd start seeing some releases we wanna see.

While on the website is 1.85:1, but I think it is the identical Blu-ray from Anchor Bay ?

So it was also the 1.33:1 aspect ratio is to be changeable, OR?
