The new Blu-ray release offers audiences a few different ways of watching the movie. It comes with a 2K restoration of the film from the original negative as either the Theatrical Cut, or the Television Version of the movie, as well as a new cut that combines the two versions together into a longer Extended Cut. There are commentaries for each of the versions of the film, with cast, crew, and film authors offering their insight and expertise to expand the viewing experience. There’s also a Cinema Mode, which presents the film as it would have appeared in theatres in 1979, complete with trailers for other horror films, and cinema adverts; it even has an ad for a local Indian restaurant, and is a good bit of silly fun.

Straight away we see that Donny’s isn’t your typical guy; when an accident results in a coworker being engulfed in fire Donny watches on, mesmerised rather than helping.

Whoever is on the housetop must not go down [to enter the house], or go inside to take anything out of his house;

Whoever is on the housetop must not go down to get the things that are in his house [because there will not be enough time]. and here are comparisons for the last two images from the UK 35mm version of disc 3 of the Arrow release in its 1.85:1 option.

On that day, a person who is on the housetop and whose belongings are in the house must not go down to get them, and likewise a person in the field must not return to what was left behind. The victims don’t really matter in this film, and whilst we spend a good portion of time seeing Donny select his first victim, and working himself up to perform the act of kidnapping and killing her, the later victims get very little screen time, and I don’t think any but the first is named. Instead, it’s Donny that is the focus, his journey from abused son to fire-obsessed killer. The most obvious comparisons to Psycho would be the relationship between Donny and his mother, and how he keeps hearing her voice after she dies, and how her past actions are driving him to now harm young women. Thankfully the film doesn’t go into the disgusting trope of the cross-dressing villain, and because of that I think it actually makes a lot more sense than Psycho, and works better.
