Product Description

IN CRADLE BAY, IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU’RE NOT PERFECT. YOU WILL BE.

Stars James Marsden (X-Men), Katie Holmes (Batman Begins) and Nick Stahl (Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines) set the screen ablaze in this breathlessly fast-paced jolt-fest from veteran "X-Files" director David Nutter. Written by Scott Rosenberg (Con-Air) and featuring a hip soundtrack from the hottest bands around, this "clutch-your-armrest thriller" (Teen People) will pull you into the undercurrent of a deranged high school clique - and drag you away screaming!

Achieve, be excellent...and be afraid. For when the esteemed Blue Ribbon club of Cradle Bay High take their slogans too far, things in the small coastal town begin to go wrong. Dead wrong. And when a "dark sinister force" begins turning the school's curricularly challenged into the soulless, academic elite, three "outsiders" join in a desperate race to avoid becoming insiders and losing their individuality forever!

SPECIAL FEATURES:

  • High Definition (1080p) presentation of the main feature in 1.85:1 aspect ratio
  • Audio: English DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 Surround, English 2.0 Stereo, French 2.0 Stereo
  • Optional English and French Subtitles
  • Audio commentary by director David Nutter
  • Deleted Scenes and Alternative Ending with optional commentary by Director David Nutter
  • Original Theatrical Trailer
  • Reversible Artwork
  • Collectible Mini-Poster

* Special Features May Not Be Rated, Closed Captioned Or In High Definition.

Review

Dopey, histrionic fun from The X-Files alum David Nutter… It's all goofily ridiculous, sure, but it's also more than a little fun, and for what it's worth, Disturbing Behavior garners an instant Drive-in Academy Award nomination for Best Use of a Pink Floyd lyric since The Wall. --Marc Savlov, Austin Chronicle

Put together by some of the production team responsible for "The X Files," "Behavior" frequently captures the same weird/wacky atmosphere found in some of that series' more lighthearted episodes. --James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette

Part ‘X-Files’ thriller, part ‘Scream’ chiller! --Teen People

"Disturbing Behavior"- MVD Rewind has finally re-released this cult film on Blu-Ray!
Finally, those of us who weren’t able to get our hands on the Shout Factory Collector’s Edition Blu-Ray of "Disturbing Behavior" before it went out of print are able to get it in HD for a fair price! MVD Rewind Collection, which is quickly becoming a personal favorite distributor of mine, has given this forgotten cult-film a new release. All for all intents and purposes, it seems to be equal to the previous Blu-Ray in every way based on what I've read. For better and for worse.Rather than bore you with a a regurgitation of the story and actors, I'll just cut to the chase... I scanned through the film and gave it a quick peruse this morning after I got it in the mail, and have some first-impression thoughts.The video quality on this release is a mixed bag, which seems par for the course for this movie. Plenty of scenes, particularly those set during the day, look absolutely lovely and feel very high-definition, even if the film stock isn't the highest quality. They're warm and sharp and look great on my 55" 4K TV. But during darker and moodier scenes, the issues with this HD master rear their ugly head.In darker scenes, color tends to get very washed out, blacks look muted, and the film grain stands out in a big, bad way. Seeing a little film grain is nice... it gives movies a certain aesthetic. But when it's incredibly noticeable, it can get distracting. And in some scenes here, it is very distracting. There are also many instances where you can see debris in the image (dust, hair, etc.) or even slight film damage. It's a bit of a shame, but unfortunately there's only so much you can do without a from-the-ground-up restoration. Still... it's totally watchable and looks better than the old DVD version I remember renting as a teenager. So it does get some points overall.Sound quality seems to be very solid. I listened to the different audio tracks, and while it's nothing mind-blowing, it's totally fine. Through both my TV speaks and my sound bar, it sounded very decent. And the special features? Well, it's the same stuff we've been watching since the DVD release. Just old, vintage bonus content.Given the film's limited appeal and small cult audience, this is honestly probably the best home-video release we can hope for at this point in time. I doubt the interest is there to justify a thorough 4K restoration or the creation of new special features. But thankfully, MVD has at least made the film available again on home video for a decent price. And given how overpriced the old DVD and Blu-Ray releases are, MVD gets a big thumbs up from me for that!I'm giving this Blu-Ray release a 4 out of 5. Decent cult movie. So-so release. But worth owning.

So glad to have found this movie! Even know it was used that's fine. It's currently not available anywhere!!! Out of print!!! when I tried to get it @ movies unlimited I actually called them because I couldn't find it on the internet so I spoke to someone who told me that it was at a friends in for some reason most of the movies that Katie Holmes is in are out of print and hard to get! I did find some on ebay somewhere used which I don't mind but they wanted $50 which is ridiculous and then some people have a brand new in the package for $100 is the same thing here with Amazon anything that's out of print in a brand new package is usually $99.99. But after waiting patiently I finally sound this that someone listed and I got it used for a decent price and it also happened with another movie called Shag from 1980's era about the 4 girls including Phoebe Cates going to Fort Sumpter/Myrtle Beach. on here and there were 7 available brand new in the package and they ran from $99.99 up to $150 I contacted the movie places they said it would not be reproduced again. Just like when Disney shows and movies go in the vault its like with a lot of these movies they either come out on DVD once and if you don't get it then you're not going to get it are you going to pay through the nose!

Much has been said about this being a Scream ripoff. Here's my verdict based on my horror-film experience and my observation on the technical execution of Disturbing Behavior:
From screenwriting, directing and cinematographic points of view, Disturbing Behavior has NOTHING to do with ANY of the Scream movies.
Scream and Scream 2 were self-referential commentaries on the horror genre while frankly (and dare I say not very effectively) using the conventions of slasher films for cheap thrills. The value of the Scream movies was in the comedic elements: The wink-wink, nudge-nudge to people who know slasher films well. The impact of Scream, if it has impact on you, is strictly personal, as are the relationships of the characters. (If anything, Urban Legend is an extension of this approach).
Disturbing Behavior is on the opposite end of the spectrum. Sociological in its impact and its intention, broad (and often sketchy) in its character depictions, and completely uninterested in its own genericism, Disturbing Behavior is a conventional suspense-action piece. It doesn't rely on gore effects and slasher-film conventions; for example, one of the most disturbing scenes in Behavior is the scene of near-seducton that ends in masochism -- its impact comes not from physical danger (as in Scream and the slasher-film tradition) but from the concept. Same for the rest of the story -- the question is not whether these kids will get their heads chopped off; it's whether they can retain their own identity. And that is NOTHING that the slasher-film tradition offers because, as shown by The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the forefather of all slashers, the slasher film's chief weapon is simple, straight-forward physical danger.
The look of Disturbing Behavior is more noir than slasher, and its storyline is a dead-serious social commentary. Kind of like a much less complicated version of 1984, and limited to young people instead of the whole society.
I actually liked Disturbing Behavior even if its faults are legion -- Marsden's questionable acting, the lack of real depth of the Katie Holmes character (though she tries for more), and a slipshod narrative structure. It's worth a look for writer Scott Rosenberg's bleak view of the institution of education.
Disturbing Behavior is no classic. But to lump it in with Scream (admittedly, the marketing campaign for Disturbing Behavior *did* try to cash in on the horror audience rejuvenated by Scream) is convenient, shallow, and an act of ignorance as to how the two movies respectively work.

La filmación inició en marzo de 1998 y terminó a inicios de mayo. El director David Nutter completó de editar su corte en siete semanas, el cual duraba 115 min. Después de que el corte del director fuese visto por el estudio y el presidente de MGM Michael Nathanson, lo amaron.

La primera proyección de la película fue en Plano, Texas, para 324 personas entre 15 y 24 años, y fue recibido de manera favorable. Pero Nathanso y otros en MGM estaban preocupados por quejas de algunos miembros de la audiencia sobre unas partes de la película, como la escena de sexo entre Steve y Rachel y el final original donde Gavin muere, por lo cual le ordenan a Nutter recortar la película a 95 minutos.

Dos semanas después, la película tuvo una segunda proyección en Westlake Village a la cual también le fue bien, pero después de eso MGM le quita la película a Nutter y le ordenan filmar otro final en el cual Gavin este vivo y sea maestro de escuela, siendo aún controlado por el programa ‘Blu Ribbon’. La película fue editada con la ayuda de George Folsey Jr, vice presidente de edición de MGM. Algunas escenas que fueron recortadas o eliminadas completamente son flashbacks del hermano muerto de Steve, escenas de personajes y más exposición y más partes de la trama; escenas entre los adolescentes y sus padres fueron eliminadas porque MGM ordenó que desaparecieran para hacerla más interesante hacia el público que iba dirigida la película, los adolescentes.

En junio la película tuvo dos proyecciones más en Fallbrook en el Condado de San Diego, con respuestas variadas de la audiencia. Muchas de las quejas fueron por el nuevo final en el que Gavin está vivo y es maestro de escuela. El director David Nutter quería quitar su nombre de la película después de tanta intromisión y cortes por parte del estudio, pero al final cambió de parecer.

Una cuarta proyección se llevó a cabo el 22 de junio, y el corte que fue mostrado fue de solo 72 minutos de duración. Después de la proyección, Folsey trató de ser positivo señalando que nadie abandonó la sala, pero Nutter respondió; ‘¿a quien le dio tiempo de dejar la sala?’

Una quinta proyección se llevó a cabo en Fallbrook el 13 de julio para 400 personas, 11 días antes del estreno. Sorprendentemente, el estudio se vio forzado a re editar la película, y esta versión fue recibida de manera positiva por la audiencia.

Nutter quería lanzar el corte del director cuando la película fue lanzada en Dvd pero MGM no le permitió hacerlo. El corte del director nunca ha sido lanzado, sin embargo hay un edición de un fan disponible en línea, que contiene todas las escenas eliminadas y el final original que contiene el dvd y el bluray, con una duración de 103 minutos es lo más cercano al corte del director.

11 escenas eliminadas y el final original están incluidas como material extra en Dvd y bluray, pero había más escenas eliminadas que nunca fueron lanzadas, algunas incluían más trama, por ejemplo: Gavin lleva a Steve a la morgue para mostrarle el cuerpo de Mary Jo, la chica que fue asesinada al inicio y que resulta en que el cuerpo ha desaparecido. El trailer de cine y los spots de tv muestran varias escenas eliminadas, una de las cuales no está incluida en Dvd o bluray; diálogo entre Steve y la mamá de Gavin, después de que se lo llevan los ‘Blue Ribbons’, escena en la que su mamá dice que ‘Gavin ahora es un buen muchacho’.

A finales de los 90’s el workprint del director David Nutter con su versión de 115 min de duración existía aún, pero tristemente como muchos otros workprints de esos tiempos, han desaparecido y no han sido encontrados.

El Blu-ray de Shout Factory tiene audio en inglés y subtítulo en inglés.
NO contiene audio ni subtiulo en español.

I bought this on VHS (I know!!), I cant remember why I did, but I was pleasntly surprised and still throw it on now and again. As many have stated at the very least this showcases young talent in early roles. That aside the story is based on paranoia, peer presures, sexual desires and growing up; all in just the right mix. In no place does the film substitute one for another to make up for shortcomings in the plot without aiming to achieve a desired effect (yes theres the katie holmes introduction but in fairness its intentional). It has the typical teen clique issue but enjoyable, I guess the music references help make it a little more relateable and fun, add an extra side to it.

At its heart, the plot feels like an old school sci-fi movie growing up in the '90s. And done well. I guess its a teenage stepford wives of sorts with a small dash of horror. Not as polished or uber cool as the Faculty, but cool all the same.

fun reasons to watch:
1. Cyclops is in it
2. John Conner is in it
3. Flagpole sitta by Harvey Danger
4. Katie holmes

dont write it off, try renting it
