Official Synapse Press Release/Info on Disc/Extras:

A 3-DISC (BLU-RAY, DVD & CD) LIMITED STEELBOOK™ EDITION OF DARIO ARGENTO’S HORROR CLASSIC! ONLY 3000 UNITS PRODUCED!
Italian terror master Dario Argento elevates the Giallo genre to new heights with 1982’s TENEBRAE, a darkly humorous, futuristic and notoriously grisly horror film many consider to be one of his finest works.

American mystery author Peter Neal (Anthony Franciosa) comes to Italy to promote his newest novel, TENEBRAE. Unfortunately, a razor-wielding serial killer is on the loose, taunting Neal and murdering those around him in gruesome fashion just like the character in his novel. As the mystery surrounding the killings spirals out of control, Neal investigates the crimes on his own, leading to a mind-bending, genre-twisting conclusion that will leave you breathless!

This all-new 1080p high-definition release of TENEBRAE is presented here, for the FIRST TIME EVER, with rare English insert shots never-before-seen on any optical disc release! Starring John Saxon (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET), Daria Nicolodi (Dario Argento’s PHENOMENA) and John Steiner (CALIGULA), this slasher-horror classic also features an amazing music score from Claudio Simonetti, Fabio Pignatelli and Massimo Morante (formerly of Italian progressive-rock band, Goblin).

RAZOR-SHARP SPECIAL FEATURES INCLUDE:


    • All-new Synapse Films supervised color correction and restoration of a 1080p scan from original uncut negative elements, presented in the original aspect ratio of 1.85:1
    • Dual English and Italian language options with newly-translated English subtitle tracks for both
    • Audio commentary track featuring film critic and Argento scholar, Maitland McDonagh

    • Booklet containing liner notes by Derek Botelho, author of THE ARGENTO SYNDROME, with additional technical notes by Vincent Pereira and Don May, Jr.
    • Chapter Selections
    • Collectible Steelbook™ Packaging by Silver Ferox Design
SPECIAL FEATURES EXCLUSIVE TO THE BLU-RAY DISC INCLUDE:



    • Rare high-definition 1080p English sequence insert shots, playable within the film via seamless branching
    • Feature-length in-depth documentary, YELLOW FEVER: THE RISE AND FALL OF THE GIALLO by High Rising Productions, chronicling the giallo film genre from its beginnings as early 20th century crime fiction, to its later influences on the modern slasher film genre. Featuring interviews with Dario Argento, Umberto Lenzi, Luigi Cozzi, Lamberto Bava, Richard Stanley, and more!
    • Original UNSANE (U.S. version of TENEBRAE) end credits sequence
    • Alternate opening credits sequence

I'm sure you've joined a GB before. What difference does it make whether you pay 2 months ahead or 6 months ahead? You are still prepaying. As long you want it, I don't think it should matter. People here pay for stuff without even seeing the product first (ie - FA, BF). They simply base it on how much they liked previous editions. And this is HDN, people worked on this were/are collectors. At least HDN revealed the complete edition before accepting preorders. :)


Not tryna defend HDN here, because I can understand that price is...umm...quite a bit. But I'm sure their costs were also high. I don't think they'd mark up the price for no reason. :)


Best part of £32 (minimum) for a Steelbook Blu Ray that won't even carry the wealth of the extras present in the Arrow edition, and, by all reports I've heard, is visually inferior to the Arrow restoration is just way too much. Sorry Digitalbabe but I find it very hard to be positive beyond saying I like the look of the slips.

p.s. Yes, we commit to FA releases in advance - but then again we DO know the quality to expect - and we do NOT pay rip off prices for their products - unlike most BluFans, HDz etc.

Bummed I missed the PLATINUM, but grateful that I got in for the GOLD Tripack. I guess that is one of the exciting things about this hobby (collecting limited editions); you WIN some & you LOSE some. That is the nature of this wonderful hobby of ours. But if any PLATINUM packs do become available, I would love to upgrade @digitalbabe ;)

Was totally unaware that this was going live today, so I was caught off guard. Very excited this one, HDN's #001 Black Label. This was a blind buy for me, so I cannot wait to see the film.

HUGE congrats & shout out to the Big Ninja...my main man @Wreck , and all the folks involved in making this release happen! :)

Wow these look amazing... need to order a tri-pack, how about you @NoDingsNoScratches

Thanks for the tag my Ninjas, I appreciate that a lot, for real. You know I'm RIDE or DIE HDN for life...just Please try to send me a PM on FB or CALL or TEXT next time tho, cuz I messed up and this totally caught me off guard and I almost missed it. I'm at work and it was hella busy, and by the time I found out the PLATINUM was all gone :(

damn, just found out about this. and would have gone for a quiltface slip, but that's sold out already. :(
i also dig the front of the dark inker, but the flowers on the back are a turn-off for me.

if that quiltface becomes available again don't forget to tag me please, guys!
many thanks!
 
IM not that interested in the title but artwork wise... GOD DAMN these look incredible! Great job for everyone involved, a Superb way to kick off this line, im excited for future titles!
 
Well done ninjas on getting the Quiltface slip sold out so quickly!

If I had missed out on it, the Dark Inker slip would have been my next choice.
