Jim posted on Facebook yesterday that he's struck a deal with Lionsgate to get this 80s classic released on Blu. In addition to the existing bonus features on the DVD, some new ones are being created as well.
What do you think this is, a signature? It's a way of life!
All I have to say is YES! Lets hope this is out before the end of the year.
shareGreat news.
shareNot only that but a 4K scan restoration from the original camera negative and extras galore, Lionsgate is waking up to do SE BDs of horror films they own and to cash in on Scream Factory as it will sell among fans of the film.
Sounds awesome.

Saw it in FYE for $40. This garbage movie isn't worth $10 by itself.
shareI will second that, having seen the film last year on a cheap multi-pack DVD edition. The only reason I even wanted it was to see Mary Woronov and Paul Bartel play the Blands one last time. The film was only intermittently entertaining in its trashy way, but not so entertaining I would want to see it once every 30 years. Fairly good 80's horror flicks like The Fog, Halloween 3: Season of the Witch, and Terror Train, I would willingly buy on Scream Factory, but Chopping Mall had little that I looked at with affection as I do those flawed but far more interesting films. $40 is outrageous for such a forgettable work. At such an inflated priced, I surmise the release will only attract the few dozen or so men-boy geeks willing to pay that bloated price.
