That's really great news. There was a similar issue that affected Scream's Creepshow but that was never fixed.

Got my copy today (along with the Ringu collection) from Diabolik

GasmaskAvenger · 10-19-2019, 10:22 PM

Wasn't even expecting them to go the extra distance by correcting the pitch issus on the 5.1 audio mix.

That's why Arrow is one of the best labels in town.

[Show spoiler]

The box looks better than what I had expected.

SpaceBlackKnight · 10-19-2019, 11:19 PM

So the 5.1 mix was pitch corrected after all. Guess my theory of the 5.1 being originally 25fps PAL with pitch correction then speddown to 23.97 with lowering the corrected pitch wasn't too far off, as even the post says the same thing.

Golden, down to a David M encode and fixed audio all-around! Good stuff!
I ordered from Diabolik yesterday. Hoping it ships soon and I get it this week.

For those of you who might be familiar with DeepDiscount, how soon do you think they might ship?

They will ship pre-ordered items usually the day of release. Sometimes, you may get them to ship a day before. I don't remember ever having a pre-order ship the Friday before release, but I could be wrong. With the $23 price tag DD had on this, I am in no hurry.

You just HAVE to know that as soon as this deluxe version goes OOP, you are going to be wishing you bought it. This will be my 4th time...

I’ve had this movie on VHS, DVD & both universal BDs. This Arrow release will be the last time I purchase it & I couldn’t be happier with it

.

Mine came with a postcard for Creepshow 2.

What's up with that more expensive standard edition Amazon is offering? Why would anybody go that route? I apologize if this has already been asked and answered. Skimmed quick and didn't see anything.

The limited edition adds the slipcase, poster, lobby cards, and booklet. Standard is just the disc.

MifuneFan · 10-20-2019, 01:09 PM

Plus, the LE is cheaper than the standard edition on Amazon right now, and much lower if you got it from Deep Discount recently.

Just a friendly reminder that, despite some being very lucky and receiving this crazy early, it doesn’t actually officially release until the 29th.

recS-12 · 10-20-2019, 04:08 PM

Finally got a shipping notice from DIABOLIK on Friday. Shipping notice states to expect on Monday. Good.

thegreatmutato · 10-20-2019, 06:27 PM

I am aware of all that. It's just odd they they would offer a standard release at the same time as the LE, because those usually come after the LE has run its course. It's also odd that they would charge more for it. Is there even a SINGLE order for that thing? I'm sure some ding dong ordered it just because there's always one. The entire thing is just confusing and odd to me. I definitely know whats up with LE vs standard edition AV releases.

The standard edition is probably more expensive just because it hasn’t had a price drop yet. Amazon Canada has the standard edition listed for almost $10 less than the LE the last time I checked.
