Child's Play (1988) (Collector's Edition) - Page 4 - Blu-ray Forum

Dumb re-release...the complete collection is fine unless your a huge Chucky fan...pass.

Jay Mammoth · 05-02-2016, 01:07 AM

Great, can't wait. This movie could def use a remaster.

perfectionthrusilenc · 05-02-2016, 01:17 AM

I have the complete collection already. I won't be picking this up.

I re-watched the first film and watched 2 and 3 for the first time recently.

I have to say:

The first one is a classic film. So good.
The second film is pretty good too. Pretty darn good for a sequel.
The third one had some ridiculous parts in it and overall wasn't great. The end showdown in the funhouse was AWESOME THOUGH.

I haven't seen Bride, Seed, or Curse yet.

Be sure to drop by with your thoughts when you do. Curse is an enjoyable film more in line with parts 1-3, but prepare for the worst with Seed of Chucky. Bride is actually pretty enjoyable but I have a lot of problems with it for the fact that it derailed the Child's Play franchise pretty severely and lead to the abomination that is/was Seed of Chucky.

I like Bride & Seed more then 2 & 3

Im magical.......also it probably won't like 99% of their releases. I would be on those Jeepers creepers discs in a heartbeat if they were 4k masters.

Childs Play is a very popular title I'm pretty sure it will get a remaster like AoD and TCM 2.

DenOfEarth · 05-04-2016, 08:58 PM

Sounds awesome and hope it has 2K scan or new HD transfer and extras abound.

Hope Scream also does CP 2 which i like more than the original in a CE complete with TV cut.

Opips3 · 05-04-2016, 09:09 PM

Awesome! Thanks Scream Factory pick Child's Play.

jstxanothrxstory · 05-04-2016, 11:24 PM

Eh, I don't think this is all that necessary since the original release was pretty good. Like everyone else said, I'd rather they do the second and third films. But they may surprise us.

evilive · 05-05-2016, 12:44 AM

Believe it or not, but CHILD'S PLAY 1 & 2 were the very first horror films I can distinctly remember watching when I was 4-5 years old. So even though I already own the MGM BD, I'll gladly welcome a Scream release of CP and its sequels(2, 3) and hopefully packed with cool features like AoD.

bd1k · 05-06-2016, 03:21 PM

I like Shout, but don't they add a lot of DNR to their releases?

Seems like one to pass and remember, a Holland commentary was released, just not on DVD.

Not a fan of the deluxe edition artwork, so thankfully the standard one will do me. I guess we might get Child's Play 2 and 3 CE's further down the line.

No details on Shout's site but Entertainment Weekly have some:

Quote:

The two-disc set boasts a new 2K scan of the movie plus a recently-recorded audio commentary with the film’s Master of Horror director, Tom Holland (the original Fright Night). Other extras include two more commentaries (one with actors Alex Vincent and Catherine Hicks as well as Chucky designer Kevin Yagher, the other with producer David Kirschner and screenwriter Don Mancini), select scene commentaries from Chucky himself, numerous featurettes, the original theatrical trailer, and a still photo gallery. More extras will be announced at a later date.

You'd like to think they got Brad Dourif to do something for this and Exorcist III. His participation, along with a new interview with Chris Sarandon, would make for a nice upgrade.

JohnCarpenterFan · 07-07-2016, 04:38 PM

Love the standard artwork, it actually looks retro. Thankfully it seems SF may be listening to the complaints regarding the floating heads.

Nice, this one's another 2K remaster. If it's up to par with SF's last few then I'll definitely be buying this. Since 2K scans have apparently dropped a bit in price, how about nice remastered releases of They Live and Prince of Darkness?

RodChester · 07-07-2016, 04:41 PM

Sweet. This is the first of Screams deluxe releases where I really like the extra slipcover more than the regular one. I don't want anything to do with the figure though so hopefully there is an edition with the extra slip and no figure.

lilboyblu · 07-07-2016, 04:46 PM

New 2K scan, eh? May need to reconsider my previous stance of being okay with the original release.
