I really hope it's just a loop of Patrick Bateman doing floor exercises while the ending of the film plays at full volume on his TV, with all four commentaries played simultaneously. THAT would be worth $199 alone.

Real chainsaws don't "trigger the sound of Leatherface wielding the chainsaw in the film" when opened, but they really ought to.

I thought you were joking but you can get a chainsaw for around $170 CAD at Canadian Tire. This packaging extravaganza bullshit needs to die at this point.

I still have the VHS recorded at my Grandma's house of the UK Channel 4 broadcast in 2000. Also on the tape from the same night is a Mark Kermode documentary on slasher movies, and an episode of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
This is a very long shot but I have been hunting that recording for quite a few years any chance you have a digital copy? Or would be willing to make one? I'd be very keen on owning it, I can pay for your time if needed. Please let me know. Thanks.
