3 disc version is def the way to go
The best the film has ever looked and it’s great to have the original theatrical & directors cut included too. Soundtrack completes a great package.
A must have!!!.
I Purchased this in the steelbook form which is excellent. & I got my hands on the 3ple disc 3 versions of the film, soundtrack, & Loads of extras. A cult classic, like good wine just gets better over the years. Truthfully the ultimate edition!.
Masterpiece
Superb and uncanny film, one of the horror genre's most unusual. Excellent disc with three (!) cuts of the film, plus extras. Far better than the American edition in that regard.
Wicked
StudioCanal have done it yet again, that is turned out a truly collectable set that will amaze any fan of The Wicker Man. We have the Final Cut, which has a lossless track. The video is truly remarkable for a 40 year old movie, the new inserted scenes are of a slight less quality, but not much. But I find that great, that when those scenes appear I know what they are. We also get the Theatrical and Director's Cut on disc 2. There's a wealth of Special Features in this set. And not forgetting the original Soundtrack CD that StudioCanal has also included in this set. The slipcase is well designed too. I'm shocked that Zavvi have priced it so low.
The Wicker Man-40th Anniversary Edition
The Wicker Man - 40th Anniversary Edition is a great classic film given a great hi-def release. I would recommend this release.
Excellent -what we've been waiting for
This is how Blu-ray restorations of old films should be. Most people interested in this will have already done some reading up but just to reiterate... it's amazing! This is as good as you've ever seen the film (all 3 versions!). The extras are great and the soundtrack is now on my iPod. Just buy it if you love this film. It really is a benchmark of restoration.
