We'd all learn to do without TVs if the deranged Horace Pinker (Pileggi) was the only man to fix them, for as we soon learn in "Shocker", he's more likely to fix you than your beloved telly. It was predicted that Pinker would become the next Freddy Krueger, but this never happened. Despite this, the creator of both, Wes Craven, is only too happy to provide a commentary for this fine DVD release.
Picture quality is often very good, and copes well with the vivid and bright colour saturation employed in some scenes.
The 2.0 surround mix keeps busy with a selection of 80s heavy metal tunes and some good rear speaker effects, especially when Pinker is on the move through people's televisions.
Wes Craven sits in for an audio commentary that starts pretty well but soon goes somewhat silent. He still makes some interesting points though, and reveals the deal he made with this movie to get the final cut - an arrangement that he's insisted upon for all subsequent films.
Apart from a trailer, there are also four multi-angle scenes that offer storyboard-to-finished scene comparisons for you to flick through.
