ONE RELEASE DATE: 6TH DECEMBER 2000 The
Guns of Navarone Collector's Edition (PG) Digitally
remastered for DVD including a brand new 5.1 audio
track to capture its cinematic beauty, the story reveals the
specialised commando team assembled to sabotage the colossal 'Guns
of Navarone' that control a channel in the Aegean Sea. To celebrate this
historic DVD release Columbia TriStar has packed a collection of entertaining
and exciting extra features onto this one amazing disc; audio commentary with
the director takes you through his thoughts and direction for specific scenes,
and the 30-minute documentary "Memories of Navarone" tells the story
of Navarone itself. Talent
profiles and the movie trailer are also included.
But the entertainment doesn't stop there…..also on the disc are five
featurettes "Two Girls on the Town", "Great Guns",
"No Visitors", "Honeymoon on Rhodes" and "A Message
from Carl Foreman" – a special message which was filmed for the
Australian premiere of the movie. A brilliant classic film that benefits
immensely from the DVD format, The Guns
of Navarone is definitely worthy of the title 'Collector's Edition'. Bats Collector's
Edition (M15+) A
horrifying tale about mutant bats who are intelligent, aggressive, and
carnivorous and are terrorising an entire American town. This Collector's
Edition creates such intense terror that only can be experienced through the
brilliance of DVD. Bats stars La
Bamba's Lou Diamond Phillips as the tough sheriff in a race against time
to save mankind from a fate worse than death.
The behind-the-scenes features on this disc include: a 'making of' featurette
"Bats Abound", director and cast audio commentary, sound effects and
storyboard comparison, talent profiles and photo galleries; have the ability
to break down the sheer terror of this film by bringing you back to the
reality of how it was made. Supported by the movie trailer and a killer
isolated music score, Bats on DVD
brings back real meaning to 'horror' movies. Whatever It
Takes Collector's Edition (M15+) This
fun comedy about the game of teenage love is now an equally fun DVD! Ryan and
Chris swap inside information to pursue Ashley and Maggie, and as you'll see
the boys will do 'Whatever It Takes'
to get the girl. With extras to be seen nowhere else, this Collector's Edition
shows everything from a behind-the-scenes featurette to deleted scenes and
talent profiles. Audio commentary by the director and cast gives an account of
how things are done in the movie business and the deleted scenes are a
timeless piece not included in the original movie – you can be the judge as
to whether they should have been left out or not. A real bonus on this disc is
the incredibly hip isolated soundtrack, so that you can groove along to it
anytime and the movie trailer tops off this fine piece of entertainment. As
with all great comedies, you'll want to watch this one over and over – the
beauty of DVD is that you can easily flick to your favourite scenes without
having to rewind or fast forward. PACKAGE
