All throughout 2007, the individual episodes of Showtime's
Masters of Horror saw separate releases on DVD, but now Anchor Bay Entertainment is planning to put together a
Season 2 box set with all the episodes together! While the studio hasn't officially announced the title through their PR people, the folks at Amazon.com have
listed the title for pre-order.
According to Amazon, the 11-disc set will cost $86.98 SRP (what a strange price point!), but is being discounted to $60.99 if you pre-purchase it as of this writing. It's available as of
July 29th. While the listing there has no info yet about bonus material, it out to at the very least have the same extras that the separate DVD releases contained.
This release listing there is only for DVD format. No information is available so far about a Blu-ray Disc release for Season 2. However, it's a good bet that one is probably coming, given the fact that Season 1 was available on Blu-ray Disc (albeit split into four separate volumes).
Amazon doesn't have any package art showing yet, but it was seen this past weekend at the Los Angeles Convention Center when Anchor Bay showed it off at the Los Angeles installment of "Fangoria's Weekend of Horrors". We weren't there, but many people were and snapped digital camera pics of the packaging prototype. After last year's
Season 1 Limited Edition Mausoleum Set, what sort of elaborate packaging would Anchor Bay do for the 2nd Season? As you've no doubt already noticed on the right, it's a "skull head" that opens up! That small pic we have is a cropped & scaled-down version of a pic courtesy of the guys at
ShockTilYouDrop.com; head on over there to see a full-size version of that picture, and others taken at the event!
We've got requests in to Anchor Bay for more info, and formal artwork of the package, for
Masters of Horror - Season 2. Stay tuned for updates!
