according to hmv it is Arrow, so it should be a decent transfer with art cards and booklet!

[SymbioticFunction]

Have Arrow confirmed this? I seem to recall them stating (via cult-labs) that numerous websites had jumped the gun and assumed that some of their forthcoming dvds would also be coming out in high definition.

You know more than me, we will have to wait and see what appears in the new year...

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ARROW VIDEO'S RELEASE OF
PHENOMENA

When Insects Attack!

Master of Italian Horror Dario Argento is joined by Jennifer Connelly for a gory 80s classic in Phenomena, a terrifying slice of fear cinema that mixes extreme violence, pounding Metal music, a vicious chimp wielding a scalpel and enough buzzing insects to choke an entire school...

Poor sleepwalking Jennifer doesn’t fit in at her boarding school and her uncanny ability to control insects isn’t helping her popularity. With the aid of a local Entomologist (Donald Pleasence), can she use her psychic insect skills to find the killer who’s leaving her fellow pupils in bloody pieces?
Argento piles on the bloody kills and surreal nightmares as the deafening buzz of a million bugs shatters your eardrums in one of the most demented Body-Horror movies ever produced.

[josuv22]

pity there no lossless audio track for the bluray

[LordCrumb]

Awesome! another great Arrow release to add to my future orders!

[Ite]

Will this come to America??

[Mr. Brightside]

Definite purchase. Fond memories of seeing this on the big screen at London's NFT as part of an Argento season. Recall Simon Boswell talked about the film afterwards.

No American company has scheduled a release here yet. The Arrow release will play on US players though. I pre-ordered my copy at Amazon.UK and it came to about $25 w/ shipping.

This version of the movie also has an additional 6 minutes of footage that was not even in Anchor Bay's Phenomena release.
