ABOMINABLE, one of the better bigfoot movies, IMO, will be coming to blu-ray in June in a collector's edition that features both the original film (unfortunately SD only, it seems), plus a new HD version with enhanced FX and other improvements.

Originally shot on 35mm, Abominable makes its HD debut featuring a brand new high definition transfer from the original camera negative and an ALL-NEW cut of the film with improved CGI-effects overseen by Director Ryan Schifrin and Editor Chris Conlee with enhanced color timing and correction and in this fully loaded collector's edition set!

Too bad we're not getting Hammer's The Abominable Snowman as well.

I have the old Anchor Bay DVD release, but I would love to see this re-released. A remake was in development but I haven't heard anything about it in a few years.

I'd also love to see this film get the treatment it deserves. For me it's one of Hammer's best.
