It took a bit of doing, but I was able to turn up the new edition of
Robinson Crusoe on Mars. It's pricey at $30, but it's one of those
flicks that I always saw as a kid when I was home sick or as a college
kid pulling an all nighter... It's the home video equivalent of
comfort food.

It's 3:00 AM... I should be going to sleep... oh, wait, Robinson
Crusoe on Mars is on...

This is a Criterion version (#404 so if you're having a hard time
finding it...) and it does seem to recycle some of the extra material
from the old LD version.

2.35:1 ratio
New, restored transfer (I'm not sure about this, I noticed some hairs
and scratches)
Audio commentary (including both of the main actors and snips from a
1979 interview with the director)
Excepts from the original screenplay
Destination: Mars - A new documentary
Music video (long story - The actor who played Friday wrote a song for
conventions, this is a video for it.)
Still gallery
Theatrical trailer
Booklet
