Special Features: Director and Cast Commentary;Coven Short Film by Mark Borchardt;Deleted Scenes;Theatrical Trailer

Quote:

The hit of the 1999 Sundance Film Festival, AMERICAN MOVIE is the hilarious and intense story of one man's obsession to make movies. Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, is a long way from Hollywood, but Mark Borchardt has a dream. Armed with a driving ambition and nothing to lose, the fast-talking Borchardt enlists friends, local thespians and unwilling family members to help him finish his no-budget horror film, COVEN. The camera doesn't flinch as it captures every emotional crisis and financial pitfall in his two-year odyssey. What emerges is a bizarre, yet surprisingly heartfelt, documentary portrait of a true American character. Welcome to the "Real World."

This is coming from Sony through their Sony Pictures Classics line. It's a MOD title (pressed), so that's why it's being distributed through MovieZyng, who are the retailer arm for Allied Vaughn (they do MOD releases). It'll be available at other retailers too soon enough.

Right. On.

jedilips · 08-24-2022, 03:22 PM

Fantastic news. Almost pulled out the DVD to watch this week... will wait until the new release now.

Boris_Karloff · 08-24-2022, 04:54 PM

Absolutely love this film and I’m glad to see they’re including the Coven film.

dylrichard02 · 08-24-2022, 10:42 PM

Nice, been wanting to see this! Will happily blind buy.

Damonstein · 08-24-2022, 11:15 PM

Holy!!!

Ive been living with the vudu stream, so this will be glorious, it has all the extras from dvd? Never got to see those, i want badly! Too bad sony never has a sale

Haven’t watched my DVD in years, but this is a beauty and a must buy. Glad to see that someone at Sony is keeping great obscure works like this alive.

Hedrox · 08-25-2022, 01:44 AM

Thought this was shot on SD video, but IMDB says 16mm. Should look good.

WITCHCULT · 08-25-2022, 03:02 AM

Wow, finally!

I think of this as a modern classic. Can’t believe it took so long to come to Blu-ray. It seemed like it was so well-regarded and beloved when it came out, I assumed it would have a long and illustrious life on home video, where its reputation would only continue to grow, but it didn’t quite shake out like that. Hopefully now that will be rectified.

I’m happy to cross another title off my wishlist. Exciting times.

Citizen K · 08-25-2022, 09:39 AM

This is a must. Still have the old DVD, will upgrade for sure.

witheygull · 08-25-2022, 12:04 PM

Very happy that Coven (does not rhyme with oven) is included.

jzbadblood · 08-25-2022, 01:31 PM

I have a signed VHS copy of Coven from Mark. Hit him up on Twitter sometime he's a cool dude and occasionally has them for sale. It's a prized possession.
