I hear it may go straight to DVD in early October, and this film has been in the works for a few years now.

Honestly, it doesn't look that good to me, though I appreciate the attempt at a new, original Horror movie in a crappy era of remakes, adaptations and spin-offs.
Just FYI, the film wasn't "in the works" for several years now. It was scheduled for a theatrical release in October of LAST YEAR -- it was finished and shelved for some reason until now. I have no clue why.
I'll watch it for the sake of the Horror, but I'm not holding my breath for something amazing. I hate Anna Paquin.

No one really know why it's been held off. Some think that it's because it breaks the #1 horror rule and shows a bunch of bad stuff with kids. Others think that the studio just didn't have the guts to release it, period.
All I know is that for the past couple of years, they've shown this to sold out crowds at special events (like Butt-Numb-A-thon), and the responses have been overwhelmingly positive. In fact, I doubt I've heard a bad thing about it.

Looks very awesome! I don't watch horror films, but I might give this baby a go.
I hope it goes to the cinema before DVD.

It's a combination between both of them. The studio would've had a hell of a time getting that past the MPAA, so they left it as a straight-to-DVD.
It's a real shame, though. Like that movie wouldn't be able to make $12 million at the box office...

I've heard GREAT things about this movie. Bloody-disgusting.com called it the best Halloween-themed horror film since, well, "Halloween". Can't wait to pick this up.
