Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
Overall, this is an affordable box set for those of you who haven’t purchased any of these David Lynch movies before. Over 12 hours of material will definitely keep you busy. But as you can see, there are no special features at all for the Twin Peaks prequel, let alone any deleted material. And the lack of deleted scenes on the Blue Velvet disc is simply remarkable, so fans should really consider purchasing the Blue Velvet 25th Anniversary Blu-ray separately.
Release date: June 4 2012.
Price: £49.99 (free delivery in the UK)
Order: David Lynch Collection Box Set (6 Blu-ray discs).
