Why not release it on dvd?


Alligator the movie was very popular in the US wasn't it? I just wonder why they don't release it on dvd. There has been some pretty cruddy movies brought back to life on dvd. And yet, they haven't released on dvd in the United States.

Well, for some reason the film hasn't been released over here in the states and i don't want to buy another it from another country for fear it might not play on my dvd player.

Very odd - it was indeed a reasonably successful movie - no reason why it shouldn't be released in the same package as the Region 2 set i.e. both Alligator films, a commentary from director/star on the first movies, film notes, biogs and trailers.....I bought this today ;-) yummmm

Go get a multi-region player! Otherwise, looks like you could be waiting a while....

Good luck!
