I would'nt say it's overlooked...it's just damn hard to find.With the exception of the R2(UK)limited number release,the German one(of which I've heard it was cut and uncut..someone's not telling the truth)and a bevy of bootlegs available on ebay(bit of a gamble) there has been no official R1 dvd release.

I still watch my vhs version(it's days are numbered) which is now over twenty years old,the box falling apart long ago.Why this film(which I consider to be a classic,not to mention some of Savini's finest work)hasn't been released on dvd by now is anyone's guess.Blue Underground could produce this(hint,hint)they did a good job with The Prowler...or Anchor Bay.

The whole affair sucks.:(
