Avoid this release like the plague!,
First off, I love the Halloween series and this review is based on this release. Now if you think this release will feature H20 in its OAR of 2.35:1 then you’re wrong! This release will still present the film in an open-matte presentation of 1.78:1 and not only that but Resurrection is presented in 1.78:1 too (either cropped or open-matted from its OAR of 2.35:1)! Now you’re probably asking yourself “How does he know?” I’ll tell you how I know; this release was released early at Best Buy stores and a Blu-ray.com forum member got the release and told the info to confirm. I was hoping Echo Bridge would present this release as a 2-disc set with Halloween: The Curse Of Michael Myers and H20 on the first disc (with H20 in its OAR of 2.35:1) and Resurrection on the second disc with extras (basically a repackage of the April 2012 release) but sadly, this is not the case. My advice; avoid this release and buy the single disc releases of Curse and Resurrection from Echo Bridge and the Canadian Triple Pack from Alliance just to get H20 in its proper OAR.

Halloweentastic!,
It was great. I have been a fan of all the Halloween films since I was a kid. I’m glad that they released a “triple feature” for these. When sequels are released just like this it saves room on my shelf for more movies. That’s why I like these type of releases.
