Warner Home Video has also set The Exorcist: 40th Anniversary Edition – Extended Director’s Cut for Blu-ray release on 10/8. Yes… this film has now got to be high in the running for the most re-released title on either Blu-ray and DVD. The set (SRP $49.99) will include both the Extended Director’s Cut and Theatrical Version, plus all the previous extras and the all-new Beyond Comprehension: William Peter Blatty’s The Exorcist and Talk of the Devil documentaries. You’ll also get a booklet containing an excerpt from The Friedkin Connection: A Memoir.

Thanks for the info, digitalbabe.

Been waiting for this but I was hoping there would be a new transfer but as nothing has been said about it it seems it may be the same transfer

Awesome news dbabe. Growing up in a very religious household this film scared the living happy meal out of me when I was a kid.

I will wait and see what this comes with, if there's only 2 bonus documentaries and a booklet it's not worth getting. Hopefully it comes with some other extra bits.

Looks good. Wonder how much it'll be though...

what is going to be the difference between this one and the awesome diggi?

So no standalone bluray with a slipcover? That would be cool. Either that or a digibook.

It looks like this one comes with a couple of new documentaries and a booklet. I will be sticking with my digibook!

And there should be a new 4K scan for the Blu-ray.

Can anyone make out what that shadow is at the end of the stairs? Looks creepy...at first glance i thought it was Regan.

I'm not sure, I can't make it out. Perhaps its just shadows!

Would a 40th anniversary set consisting of a rotating head that throws up not be a better idea for it that a digibook?

 

[DJ IXS]

Wow this artwork is really horrible! What's up with WB ruining classic artwork for great movies lately?!

Shame it's not going to be the 4K scanned new master as what was rumoured, but seeing as I don't own this on BD yet I've pre-ordered it

Threads merged.

I didn't think those details had been released yet
