I was amazed how beautifully filmed this movie is, so if you love this film and don't have the DVD, please consider getting it. A VHS formatted-to-TV picture would lose too much of the great camera-work done in this film. The DVD version is excellent because it presents the movie in the 2.35 widescreen mode, which is essential to the viewing of this film if you are a fan of cinematography. It was almost 30 years later when I finally saw it for the second time and I thoroughly enjoyed it again, although it wasn't terrifying to me anymore.
