Reunite with the "Master of Suspense," Alfred Hitchcock, for more of the mind-boggling twists and devious thrills synonymous with one of TV's greatest shows, Alfred Hitchcock Presents. In the fifth season, delve into 38 stories of greed, larceny, revenge and murder where every character holds a guilty secret and a misleading "MacGuffin" lurks in every corner. Featuring some of Hollywood's brightest guest stars, including Walter Matthau, Steve McQueen, Peter Lorre, Dick Van Dyke, William Shatner and Burt Reynolds, it's five discs of delicious mysteries from the icon whose highest hope for his audience was to "give them pleasure - the same pleasure they have when they wake up from a nightmare."
Fans of the show have been dying (sorry, couldn't resist!) for all 7 seasons of the show to be made available on DVD, but the last time a season set was released has been back in 2009. Today Universal Studios Home Entertainment announced that
Alfred Hitchcock Presents - Season 5 is coming to DVD at last, and will be in stores on
January 3rd (so save those Christmas gift cards!). The 5-disc set running 985 minutes will be priced at $39.98 SRP (you can
pre-order it from Amazon at a discount). Video is in full frame, audio in the original English mono, and English subtitles are included as well. Package art isn't available yet, but stay tuned and we'll bring that to you as soon as we can!
