It`s the new Anchor Bay version, but sadly not the silver Immortal Edition (mind you that`s around £16 which ain`t bad) : due for release tomorrow :-)

So where`s the cheapest place to buy the Immortal Edition???
Play are doing it for £17.99 delivered... but not many places are listing it yet...
RE: Highlander R1 (dts) under £8 delivered from Canada
Remember the Immortal Edition is EXACTLY the same as the cheap edition bar it is in a metal tin and complete with a Queen CD - up to each person to determine whether they want the tin and CD for the extra cost
RE: Highlander R1 (dts) under £8 delivered from Canada
Ive now got immortal edition & I would say it wasnt worth the extra but I would still buy it agian ! As you do !!
I sold my R2 DD5.1 Version on ebay for £10 but to be honest the DTS convesion is not what I expected but then all DTS films are now a bit of a let down compared to the opening scenes in "Saving Private Ryan DTS"
But saying that, if I didnt buy the immortal edition, it would be eating me up until I did :0)
Sad & Addicted to DVD`s

RE: Highlander R1 (dts) under £8 delivered from Canada
So, let me see if I`ve got this right...
The bog standard DVD which has been out for years has nothing on it apart from the standard film. Cost £7.99
The new Anchor Bay (non-Immortal version) is THX, uncensored directors cut, deleted scenes, anamorphic etc etc. Cost £10.99 ish
The Immortal Edition has all the features of the standard Anchor Bay version plus Queen music videos and a Queen CD. Oh, and a metal tin. Cost £17.99 ish.
Have I missed anything ? Are there any other versions I should consider? Which has the best transfer? Help!
RE: Highlander R1 (dts) under £8 delivered from Canada
Put it this way, If you havent got an amp/receiver get the £7.99 version, if you have & its got a DTS decoder then get either of the other versions, the immortal edition is definately NOT worth an extra £7.00. The "TIN" case is well, hmm lets see, CHEEP & TACKY and isnt even a case, more like a shroud which, as its tin will come with a nice dent free of charge !! & the CD only has the THREE track from the movie on it
To be honest, I remember it a a brilliant film, but sadly its now dated & goes on the same shelf as my first blood collection

RE: Highlander R1 (dts) under £8 delivered from Canada
Thanks Lee...
I`ll probably end up getting the Immortal Edition anyway since it`s got the three Queen videos on it... already got the Queen audio tracks on another CD, so not worried about that, but the videos would be good.
Still think it`s a fantastic film, okay it`s aged, but at 16 years old, not nearly as badly as some others from that era. Shame it got its reputation ruined by some dreadful sequels and a naff TV series.

Or, you could order Heartbreakers from http://www.dvdsoon.com, wait 12 days, then when your order arrives, open it to find a copy of Highlander! Which by the way, I already have!

Cheers for the link clayts... new one to me.
Will definitely get the Immortal Edition after that - thanks.
