Assuming the price is fair, im in ! Stranger Calls is a very cool movie, visually speaking. Can't wait to see how it looks on Blu

All three of these movies are pretty decent, as far as post-1990 horror cinema goes. Vacancy is probably my fav of the three.

Terrible remake. I remember hating it back in the day. Just stick to the original.

Only redeeming quality of that movie is Camilla Belle. Gorgeous.

Please cue the "I wish so-and-so was putting these so I could have extras and a slip for 3 times the price" people.

Saw this on TV a few months back. It was technically well made with some nice visuals but ultimately forgettable and Camilla Belle, while pretty, is really not much of an actress.

If I cared for Last Summer series I'd own the Sony disc already. I picked up the Sony Vacancy when Blockbuster shut down for $2, and actually really enjoyed it (I didn't care much for it when I watched the dvd years ago). Felt Stranger remake was a waste of time and this is an easy pass. If someone wants to have a slip and pay $20+ for Stranger remake, I'm sure someone could make that happen for you. I do not have custom slipcover making knowledge, but they do in the custom forums.

Watched this a few months ago and... it's not a memorable film and the main actress is SO bad, worst character ever.
Vacancy, on the other side, is pretty nice.
Never watched any ''I Know What You Did...'' films.

I'd pick a release of it up if it was cheap and by itself. I have the other two already and it's just not wanted enough to double-dip on the other two. I realize none of them are "great" movies... but they're entertaining enough for a light watch. I agree with Vacancy being the strongest of the three. Kate Beckinsale doesn't hurt it either.

This isn't the only triple pack with a new to Blu title:

You Got Served makes its Blu-ray debut with Gridiron Gang and Stomp The Yard.

No interest in this BD but it gives me hope that other post-2000 Sony horror films might see the light of day, like WIND CHILL.

I'd jump on a Decoys double feature too.

I hope Mill Creek goes back to at least using lossless audio, a few of their last re-issues were lossy despite Sony versions having lossless.

I've always been a fan of the original. The whole concept is very scary, but the sad part is, they gave away the HUGE reveal in the advertising. The fact that
[Show spoiler]the calls are coming from INSIDE the house
is supposed to be a HUGE frightening reveal to scare the CRAP out of the viewers.

But they kinda gave that way as a freebie in the trailer, didn't they?

Still, it was an OK movie, some decent suspense for a PG-13 film. A bit slow, but decent suspense.
