Only fifteen hundred copies on blu? Ouch. Even though it's a nice piece of cover art, the poster doesn't sweeten the price that much, either....

Synapse won't ship outside North America, either, so I have to use a mail redirection mob to send me mine. $$$$$$$$

this is will be one i'll most definitely check out. i found the copy i own at Half Price Books for $1. That DVD has to be one of the best things i've ever bought for a dollar. edit: after re-reading this i am waiting for the array of jokes that i've opened myself up to.

What the hell is it with these limited edition blu-ray releases? At least a restoration is mentioned this time. edit Just noticed this Contains the new DVD version of The Definitive Document of the Dead, along with a high-definition Blu-ray of the original 1979 16mm version. in other words you get a restored dvd version with the original version ON BLU-RAY
