<B><center>FEBRUARY IS TERRIFYINGLY CHILLY ON DVD…</center></B>
It’s the middle of summer and outside the mercury is soaring, however indoors it’s a superbly chilling February with a line-up of suspense, action and thrills on DVD thanks to Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment.
<b>Crimson Rivers – Collector’s Edition (MA15+)
Release Date: 6th February 2002
Simultaneous VHS Rental Release</B>
On the same day two detectives are assigned two very peculiar cases…both mysterious, gruesome murders with very twisted, inexplicable clues. What follows is a thrilling whodunit set against the breathtaking backdrop of the French Alps.
International stars Jean Reno (Godzilla, Mission Impossible, Ronin) and Vincent Cassel (Joan of Arc) star in one of the most gripping thrillers to be released on DVD. Brimming with so many extra features it required a second disc; this DVD is the ultimate in edge-of-your-seat thrills and heart-stopping suspense.
Thanks to the technical wizardry of DVD, you too can become part of the investigative team with a 62 minute behind-the scenes documentary. There are also four behind-the-scenes featurettes examining the film's make-up special effects, the challenges of filming the fight scene, the logistics of filming on location and a look with storyboards and optional filmmaker commentary at the chase scene. Don't just be prepared for an onslaught of action and adventure though, take the thrills to new heights with a breakdown of 'The Avalanche' scene and view in a choice of four different angles. This is DVD at its ultimate best, allowing you to explore the work that went into creating spectacular special effects and mind-blowing scenes.
An internationally acclaimed film, let the man behind the lens, Director Mathieu Kassovitz (Déjà vu, Assassins) guide you through this thriller or alternatively the stars Jean Reno and Vincent Cassel. As well, a behind-the-scenes featurette on ‘The Production Archives’ plus three additional featurettes including the ‘Japanese Promo Piece’ and an examination of the ‘Car Chase’ scene with story boards.
One of the most memorable aspects of any great suspense/thriller movie is a terrifyingly chilling soundtrack and this DVD is no exception. The Isolated Music Score feature is an absolute must-see as is the talent profiles, collection of marketing campaigns and three original movie trailers that round out this incredible February release.
<b>The Forsaken - Desert Vampires – Collector’s Edition (MA15+)
Release Date: 6th February 2002
Simultaneous VHS Rental Release</B>
There was one thing he had to do, and one thing he shouldn’t have done. Deliver a vintage car and don’t pick up hitchhikers… but Sean (Kerr Smith, TV’s Dawson’s Creek, Final Destination, Broken Hearts Club) didn’t listen and found himself caught in the middle of a terrifying nightmare. It’s the road trip from hell and the DVD made for rainy nights with the lights turned off.
Sean's new companion, Nick (Brendan Fehr, Final Destination, Disturbing Behaviour), is not the laid back, aimless traveller he seems to be. He is a hunter. And his prey are a roving band of forsaken youths who feed upon hapless victims found in the dead of night—in a word, vampires. Discover more about the actor who plays the gruesome hitchhiker with a special Actor Profile on Brendan Fehr feature and learn more about other cast members in the talent profiles feature.
Ever wondered what goes on in the mind of the crew behind the scenes of a horror movie? Peel back the layers of the film scene by scene with an audio commentary from Director and Writer Joe Cardone and be privy to three never-before-seen deleted scenes.
Enhancing the total DVD enjoyment from this title is a featurette entitled ‘Hard Body Co-Stars’ as well as an original movie trailer, bonus movie trailers and animated menus.
