Yeah, he's fairly indepth alright. I'm just sorry I didn't wait for the big special edition of Hellboy. Might nab it and sell the old 2 Disc one.

The DVD is a two disc set so expect so very nice goodies. I know he recorded a commentary for the film and Doug Jones said that some of his video diaries would be included.

Amazon have an exclusive edition with a slip case and art cards, it's the same price as the retail version. I'm after preordering my copy.

For anyone who does'nt own Del Toro's other masterpiece, The Devil's Backbone then there's a box set including Pan's Labyrinth, Cronos and The Devil's Backbone. Three of my favourite films ever, and threee films everyone should see.

If Cronos is any good, it looks like I'll be buying that box set. Saw Pan's Labyrinth at the Kino and loved every second of it, and then checked out Devil's Backbone and loved that as well.

Once you've seen the film, have a read of this interview with Del Toro. Some interesting points in it, although spoilers galore if you haven't seen it yet.

Cronos is excellant. Unlike most vampire films, Cronos establishes it's own mythos and doesn't follow the clcihes on which other vampire films have become so reliant on. Like all of Del Toro's work it's best to watch knowing as little as possible beforehand.

It also established the relationship between Del Toro and Ron Perlman.

Do, it's excellent. I'm not always a huge extras buff, but I watched just about everything on the SE.

Play.com have an exclusive DVD release of Pan's Laybrinth also. The boxset is also consderably cheaper than amazon.
