The trailer brought back memories of Night of the Creeps...that movie was funny as hell. Hope this is as good.
Revised HD DVD artwork added...
Surprise surprise! I guess it still remains roughly the same though...
Perfect release for halloween, though I wish Universal didn't withhold it for so long to fit the season, this and Kiss Kiss Bang Bagn were the two that kept annoying me in their long delays
HD DVD Rules... I will happily pay $40.00 for this!
I hate "The Look and Sound of Perfect" so much it hurts.

I wonder how much longer that nosense will continue. How will they push their next generation format in a few years if HD DVD is "perfect". . . . .

You guys have to add a sarcasm emoticon. Tagline for the site should be, "DVDActive, where the sarcasm never stops."

One of my top 5 of the year. Everytime something is updated for this movie it just makes me want it even more.
This was in and out of the theater before I got a chance to see it. Greatly looking forward to the HD DVD.
They made a good decision with the revised art. It's much nicer.

That artwork is AWFUL!
What the hell? Why is the standard DVD version getting the original HD art. This whomps!
I think that artwork is kinda nice!
I wanted this to do well, then maybe they might release Night Of The Creeps!
I think maybe this came out a the wrong time? people are not really jonesing for comedy horror at the mooment, they wan't grumesome gore flicks like Hostel and Hills Have Eyes. Lets hope it sells on dvd!

This is coming out a month earlier in Australia. Too bad those horrible ratings logos have put me off of Aussie R4 discs.

Looks like Image put out the laserdisc, so they might still own the rights for home distribution. Oddly enough, this seems to have been a TriStar production and I would guess that Sony now holds those rights. Whoever it is, I'd like to see Night of the Creeps eventually make it to DVD. I barely remember the movie, see it once in the late 80s on HBO.

I loved Nathan Fillion in "Firefly" and "Serenity," and I loved what James Gunn did with "Dawn of the Dead," so I'll be disappointed if I don't love this, too. Especially since I didn't see it at the theater, and I'll probably buy the DVD sight unseen. A Halloween release, of course. What a long wait!
looks totally good,will own it first chance I get.
Are the special features on the R4 DVD identical to the R1?
hello u guys and gals i saw slither along time ago and it ias very good they should make Slither 2 coz at da end the cat gets poisened by da alien infection
