5.0 out of 5 stars Glad I got it!, January 24, 2002

Well, I wish this is how all discs were released. This one has it all. A blooper reel, Audition footage, deleted shots, and best of all, a commentary track. I've always found that the best commentary tracks are on low budget movies as they are always the most informative and fun to listen to. I hate paying inflated prices for discs that don't have any of these extras, but this one was a nice surprise. As for the film itself, I remember thinking when I first saw it that it was a great premise having a main character being able to survive because he was an expert in horror movies. Years later I was pretty shocked to see that the Scream series "borrowed" heavily from elements of There's Nothing Out There. Throw in some funny dialogue, a ton of gratuitous nudity and you have a classic!

4.0 out of 5 stars Ha ha ha!, June 28, 2003

Can we say CHEESY? This makes the schlockiest TROMA movie look like a 5 star masterpiece! Forget everything you know about cheese and just give this one a spin in the dvd player! If you're not rolling on the ground laughing, there's something wrong with you! The focus is on a group of teens who retreat to a house in the woods for spring break...little do they know that SOMETHING IS OUT THERE!!! Big time low-budget, and big time laughs!

5.0 out of 5 stars There's Nothing Out There, July 20, 2001

Small budgeted, but well done Comedy uses the same formula as Scream, but was first to do so. The characters in the film, for the most part, know they are in a 'horror' film, and one of them knows the rules that just might get them out alive. As they head up to a secluded cabin in the woods Mike, who has, "seen every horror film available on tape," tries to warn his friends, but of couse, it's too late. And after almost every female has lost her top, and every trick in the book is used, the monster attacks. Only when the character's take the situation too seriously in the last half hour does the movie lose any of it substance. *** stars out of ****

The DVD presents the film in it's original widescreen aspect ratio of approximately 1.77:1. The transfer is anamorphic and boasts some nice colors, deep blacks, and overall pleased me. Especially for a movie of such a limited budget.

The sound is good, again, for such an old movie, with a low budget, don't expect too much. But I didn't notice an hissing or noise that would distract the viewer. The only complaint would be that sometimes dialogue isn't always that great sounding, but again, low budget.

Extras Include --- Audio Commentary by director Rolfe Kanefsky and cast members; I found the track to be rather entertaining. They touch on many aspects of the movie, ane never seem dull or bored. Deleted Footage and bloopers; The deleted scenes are merely longer cuts of existing scenes, although they add relatively nothing to the film, they are nice to have. The bloopers are a real treat, and it is funny to see the actor's really messing up their lines. Theatrical Trailer, which I found to be rather funny; Production Stills, show many different stills from behind the scenes that I enjoyed; Storyboard-to-film comparisons, they were interesting, and for a change, we could see them on the same screen; Auditions and rehearsals were funny, however I found it rather funny only the women are asked to appear naked...(to test physical aspects to see if they could handle the stunts)

Overall I think Image Entertainment did a good job, and Rolfe Kanefsky deserves much credit for caring about a film he did so long ago. If only more film-makers would be so passionate about their original work. The DVD has good picture, good sound, and a ton of extra features, this one is a no brainer.
