STRAIGHT OUTTA AKRON
Tempe Video is hitting the IndieGoGo with a campaign to create a 3-Disc "Ultimate Edition" Blu-ray of their cult classic claim-to-fame, THE DEAD NEXT DOOR.

Thing about that is, The movie was shot on Super 8mm. It cannot come close to Blu-Ray quality. Folks who have seen Blu-Rays of 16mm movies from THE EVIL DEAD to THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE have noted the inferior grainy quality when compared to movies shot on 35mm. In fact, many feature films shot on standard 35mm quality in their day, like GHOSTBUSTERS or John Carpenter's ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, appear the worse for the wear.

Moreover, audiences are now accustomed to the clean digital quality of 2k and higher.

But hey, if you are mad for THE DEAD NEXT DOOR like I am for the original THE EVIL DEAD, let nothing and no one stand in your way!

That's the attitude director J.R. Bookwalter hopes you'll have. The Tempe Video press releases states,

"For this one-of-a-kind release, Tempe has assembled four unrated versions of the film, two of which have been created from a brand-new 2K restoration using the original film elements. To celebrate the film's 25th release anniversary this fall, collectors and fans will now be able to enjoy the movie in 1080p HD in either 4:3 original aspect ratio or 16:9 cropped alongside the standard-definition masters used for previous VHS and DVD releases, together with all of the commentary tracks and extras from with those versions."

Dead time

So if you're ready to support still another madcap endeavor by Bookwalter - you know, like Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell did lo these many moons ago - then hit the Temp Video IndieGoGo campaign now!
