Donnie Darko is one of this month`s Prism new releases, so you should be able to find it at some retailers between £4.49 and £4.99 with free delivery (probably!)

I got it in Tesco for £4.97, after some git borrowed my R1 and didn`t return it

Using the appropriate vouchers, you can get it for £1.99 on CD Wow

You have to be careful with that Prism release, seems to be a very basic version, absolutely no extra`s and indeterminate aspect ratio etc.

I`ve seen adverts for it in Asda at £4.97

I would buy this if i actually understood what thehell was going on in the movie...lol

That`s why you would want to get your mits on the "full" release. I fail to understand where the value is in releasing a bare bones for a fiver or so cheaper. This is particularly true with this film, where the commentaries and other bits and pieces are great and go someway to making it all much clearer.

Why bother with the Prism version when you can get the region 1 with all the extras for $9.98CAD (about £5.20) from dvdsoon, delivered free in around 8-10 days

Really - if anything it left me more confused listening to the first commentary.

I would have liked the script on the DVD because it would have elaborated on it further. The second commentary with the rest of the cast was okay, just a little too "oh your so great". As far as explaining it went, it was also a lot better.

The deleted scenes were excellent - they really went a long way to explaining what was intended.

The only advantage of this release would be a higher bit-rate.

Soon you won`t be able to buy the DVD with the extras anywhere(R2 in stores that is) apparently, so I`d buy it quick.
