Canada Pulse (Alliance, 1/5/2010)

Anyone know anything about this release? We're one day away from the release, it'd be nice to see covers and stuff. I know the movie is kind of a dud but I like cheesy horror and like pretty much anything with Kristen Bell so I'm interested in this. I just hope it's OAR (2.40:1) and the "unrated" version that was on DVD and the Weinstein HD DVD.

From AxelMusic.com...

Front:



Back:



If the back over is to be believed, its 1.78:1 modified. Alliance must have had a licensing issue because they could have just used the HD DVD transfer which is 1080/24f at the original 2.40:1 aspect ratio.

Sigh...

1080i, wrong OAR. It's 1.78:1 instead of the correct 2.40:1, and it's definitely cropped and not opened up (compared to some DVD images, tons of info missing from the sides). It does seem to actually be the unrated cut, but whoopdi freakin do.

I hate this company.

I almost want to contact TWC about it and ask if they care that Alliance is butchering their films for their Canadian release.
