I Was A Teenage Movie Maker [2 Discs] [DVD]

From 1953 to1969, Don Glut (best known for his novelization of THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, and now a professional screen writer/director) made 41 amateur films, most of them in the horror and science fiction genres. Shot on 16mm film, thanks to coverage in magazines like FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND, these movies became famous world-wide. The I WAS A TEENAGE MOVIE MAKER feature-lengh documentary includes interviews with Forrest J Ackerman, Bob Burns, Randal Kleiser, Jim Harmon, Bilkl Warren, Scott Shaw!, Paul Davids and others. Extras include all 41 of Don's amateur films, plus hours of bonus features, including behind-the scenes footage, stills galleries and more!

Steve Barron's big-screen treatment of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen image preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, and is preferable to the standard full-frame transfer. An English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1 and a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Stereo. English, French, and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include the original theatrical trailer, character biographies, and an interactive game that is played by using the DVD remote control. This is a fine disc from New Line that should entertain Turtles enthusiasts.
