I cant confirm, but I'm guessing this is the standard version of the mediabook that was released only a short while ago (Not the Anolis) as that was also released by MGM/Soulfood. So basically, it will be the same print as that of Anolis with the headroll. It's kind of frustrating as the best looking version is Final cut's who cleaned up the image considerably, but is missing that brief second of head roll. -

The 2 Mill Creek Hammer double features I saw were barebones, for sure, but they looked very good even if not as good as the Indicator discs, and they were dirt cheap.Rock! Shock! Pop!Comment

Marianne (Yvonne Monlaur), a beautiful young girl, is stranded en route to a teaching assignment in Eastern Europe. She is persuaded to spend the night at the nearly deserted castle of the mysterious Baroness Meinster (Martita Hunt). In the castle, Marianne accidentally discovers a man chained to the wall in his room. The Baroness explains only that he is her "sick and feeble-minded" son. Unable to get any further information from her or the maid, Marianne steals a key and sets him free. But once unbound, the man - Baron Meinster (David Peel) - fiendishly recruits the undead for his evil purposes while Marianne and Dr. Van Helsing (Peter Cushing) try to stop him in this classic Hammer Film.

The first, and perhaps the best of the long-running series of horror films from the house of Hammer, Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee star in this landmark interpretation based on the famous Mary Shelley story. Baron Victor Frankenstein becomes friends with one of his teachers, Paul Krempe. At first, both men are fascinated by the potential of their re-animating experiments. Eventually, though, Krempe refuses to help with Frankenstein's human experiments. However, he is drawn back into the plot when Frankenstein's creature kills a member of the house staff. For its U.S. Blu-ray debut, Warner Archive is proud to present this deluxe 2 Disc Special Edition, featuring two theatrical aspect ratio presentations, meticulously remastered and restored from preservation separations, as well as bonus disc with the restoration presented in “open-matte†format, as was seen for years on television, plus four exciting new retrospective featurettes, an expert commentary, and the original theatrical trailer.Rock!

Not sure why they're bothering with the 1.85:1 option, it's too tight for this movie. And it's Warner, so it's really 1.78:1.
Regardless, I'm happy that there's three different viewing options.Why would anybody watch a scum show like Videodrome? Why did you watch it, Max?Comment
