: Hey Vince, have you seen Creepers/Phenomena? Fine Argento flick...just snagged it on DVD. Jennifer Connelly is the hottest female on the planet. One problem though: the commentary is complete nonsense. Can't understand a word Argento says. Guess I'll stick to the 'Rats commentary.
Thanks for the kind words on the MALLRATS disc- as for video commentaries, well, uhm... the DOGMA DVD is being produced by J.M. Kenny, who also produced the MALLRATS DVD, so...
As for PHENOMENA, it was the first Argento film I ever saw, in it's atrociously butchered U.S. CREEPERS version, and even then I loved it. When I got my laserdisc player back in 1989 (as a junior in high school), the uncut Japanese import of PHENOMENA was the first LD I ever bought. Yeah, the commentary on the Anchor Bay release is pretty lame- I think they should have let Argento do it in Italian and subtitled the commentary, then it might have been more lucid.
