"It's official Halloween is on dvd. How would I know? Well, my closet is full of them and I've added on a room. I now have a Halloween Wing on my house also known as the Hallowing. Thanks Anchor Bay!"
"I bought the dvd before i got my 5.1 system and thought the sound was great with normal stereo but whoa nelly! watch the volume levels, though as comfortable dialog quick becomes sonic booms in this one.this has the best picture (via s-video) and audio quality i've seen so far on a dvd."
"This is a wonderful movie that's both entertaining and has a great message. The basic plot is this: The Kranks decide to skip Christmas and their usual activities in favor of going on a cruise since the cruise will cost them $3,000 vs. the $6,000 they spent the year before. The idea is a good one to them but others in their life (friends and neighbors) don't understand and agree with it. Their plans change at the last second, however, when they get a call that their daughter is coming home for Christmas. I won't spoil the ending but suffice to say that the ending gives us a partial message of what Christmas is about. I'm not sure why other say it's boring as there's nothing but laughs and a good plot from start to finish. "
"I remember really liking this movie when it came out in the 80's but then again I was about 16 at the time...It's still pretty funny but not a great movie, certainly not as good as people raved back in the day. The low rating I gave this movie is due more to the EXTREMELY poor quality DVD release of the film; it looks like it was taken straight from an overplayed videotape & the sound is just as poor, rent it if you want to revisit this film but don't bother buying the DVD!"
