Phantasm II (1988) (Collector's Edition)

[Zelgadis]

This upcoming Blu doesn't have its own discussion thread, and I think it deserves one. Definitley one of the my favorite sequels of all time and easily my favorite horror series of all time. So I'd like to thank Shout Factory for picking it up!

It was also for a time the bastard stepchild of home video, not reaching DVD until a few years ago. When I did get a DVD, however, the release kind of pissed me off. Why? The color timing seemed horrible to me. Everything was really brightened up compared to what I recall versus the VHS edition. Considering this is a dark horror film, I think the darker look is what was intended. If I have one thing on my wish list for this film, it is correct color timing on Bluray!

Also excited to hear about some of the extras coming including a Red Shirt documentary supposedly. Can I get confirmation on that? Would also like to hear about any other possible extras since I haven't seen the information collected in one place. I'm also wondering what Don Coscareli's input on the release is since he seemed to have a decent amount of input on the Anchor Bay DVDs.

If I have a suggestion for an extra, a sound-track CD would be ultra nice since it's super out of print and almost impossible to track down. New commentaries would also be great.
