As I have the German release of The Dead Zone, if this list is accurate, it would have to be remastered and available separately for me to buy anything here. I'd much rather the other miniseries were remastered and included instead, although it would hardly make sense to include one feature film with 2-3 miniseries.

Yeah guess it will be the Australian version for me then, since I don`t want to buy the entire 5 movie collection for one movie.
Been planning to pull the trigger an the Australian one for a long time anyway. I was just waiting since I thought Shout would release it.

I’ll wait for a Scream release of The Dead Zone. It’s only a matter of time.

There's a region free version of The Dead Zone from Australia (but sold in the US):

I'm really hoping Scream announces as CE of the Dead Zone on Monday.

Is Storm of the Century with Disney? I know it aired on ABC and Kino released a DVD of it last year. I’d buy a remastered Blu-ray for that...

Kino released it to DVD because it would be too expensive to remaster for Blu-ray. All of the effect shots would have to be redone ala Star Trek TNG. If they wouldn't do it, I don't see anyone else doing it (especially not Diesney).

Appropriate misspelling for a Stephen King thread.

It was intentional.

While still hoping for a Scream Factory release, it's still pretty good news that this is finally getting a US release. (Dead Zone) Took forever, but at least it's happening.

[MTRodaba2468]

It's good that Dead Zone is finally getting a US Blu-Ray. That said, I've already got the Australian Blu-Ray, so I'll likely pass.

[HipsterTrash]

So Dead Zone is getting released with some other titles, but there's a theory that it'll get a solo release?

Pretty much. We think that Scream is going to release it at some point. Still, that's only a theory at this point.

[DukeTogo84]

Well, no Dead Zone from Scream in October, so it looks like I'll be buying this.

I'll just get the Aussie release off of eBay.

It's a little cheaper, but I hate those logos and I just want to support these Paramount catalogue releases as much as possible. Paramount seems to have some faith in sales in terms of releasing catalogue titles, and I want that to continue.

[DukeTogo84]

Is there a cover for this yet?

[snipemonkey]

If those are the titles then I'll just wait for The Dead Zone to get a separate release (or import the AU version). Already have the other titles and I never want to own the Pet Sematary remake so...

I wish they would post some kind of cover. I imagine it will be some horrible cover art they photoshop together, like all the Stephen King DVD collections. It is up for preorder on Target and TCM now.

I really have my doubts about how this will be put together considering the price. I'm going to hold out for a Scream CE or a Criterion (just because it's Cronenberg) of The Dead Zone until October.
