Ok so i'm assuming you enjoyed it since you bought the dvd, unless you chanced it and bought it. Boiler Room was good and is actually on my list of "Dvds to buy" still.



JRS do you have any news on the documentary Halloween: 25 years of terror. I heard its finially completed. Im wondering if you know a release date

Yeah I had forgotten about that project. Always love going back to the original places to where certain scenes had taken place. Though they showed allot of that in the recent Holloween dvd special edition. It would be nice to see the fans interacting with the actors too if it shows much of that.


*edit* Amazon seems to think it will be released July 25/06.

Availability: This title will be released on July 25, 2006.



There's no plans to currently bring a box set out for the Star Wars prequels. I'll assume that a mega box set will come out next year and will contain all of them, and more.

And there's new editions of Halloween 4 and 5 coming out in the summer too. Check www.davisdvd.com for that news.

Complete "Slither" DVD Specs

  • DVD commentary by Writer/director/James Gunn myself and Nathan Fillion.
  • Deleted scenes, including the infamous Grant Grant meat filing scene, Grant Grant's speech to Brenda about how he loves to be human, "Starla and the inchworm", and many more. All these scenes also feature commentary.
  • Extended scenes, including the full porch scene between Bill and Starla, Kylie's more complete explanation of "The Long One," the full scene in the butcher shop with Grant Grant, and much more. These scenes also feature commentary.
  • The Gag Reel -- in which you can see just a hint of how many takes Elizabeth Banks screwed up by laughing.
  • "Who is Bill Pardy?" - this was a surprise we made for Nathan at the wrap party, in which the cast and crew essentially roasted him. I asked Nathan if he was cool with it being on the DVD, and he was... so... watch us brutally make fun of him...
  • "The Sick Minds and Slimy Days of SLiTHER" - A very in-depth, very well done documentary on the making of SLiTHER, featuring the whole cast and crew. I honestly couldn't be happier with this thing.
  • "Bringing SLiTHER's Creatures to Life" - a documentary on the prosthetics and CGI effects in the movie. Also wonderful.
  • "Slithery Set Tour with Nathan Fillion"
  • VFX Progressions, from start to finish, featuring kickass music by The Raymakers.
  • "The King of Cult: Lloyd Kaufman's On-Set Video Diary" - see the President of Troma Entertainment and the creator of the Toxic Avenger (and my old boss) find himself lost in the world of Hollywood with his cameo role in SLiTHER.
  • "The Gorehound Grill: Brewin' the Blood" - a short how-to-make-your-own-blood-and-slime video.


Release Date: TBA!
