Gator Update: Must-Have DVD Edition

DavisDVD : News : DVD: Twelve years ago the Kendal family decided their pet baby alligator was too much of a nuisance and flushed him down the toilet. Now, beneath those manholes, a man-eater is waiting... a ravaging animal-turned-monster bent on destroying everything in its wake. The cult classic Alligator returns with a new special edition from Lionsgate Home Entertainment on September 18th. Featuring a newly remastered anamorphic widescreen transfer and Dolby Digital 5.1 track, extras include an audio commentary with director Lewis Teague and cast, and a new on-camera interview with screenwriter John Sayles. Retail is $14.98.

John Sayles, besides scripting and directing some neat-o motion pictures, has written some good novels.

I think Union Dues won some sort of award or was nominated for one. My favorite script (not counting Alligator, of course) is the one for Battle Beyond the Stars, even if it is just a rewrite of The Magnificent Seven. Maybe I like it because it's a rewrite of The Magnificent Seven.

Surely you mean a rewrite of The Seven Samurai? ;-)

Well, both. But Robert Vaughan plays the same role in Seven and Stars.
