Ok, now on to the various special features this Special Edition of TCM has to offer. First off, we have a series of theatrical trailers of previews. There are four for TCM, with two made at the film’s original release, and the other two made in 1983, when the film was re-released by New Line Cinema. There are also previews for the three sequels, which are only recommended viewing by die-hard fans; the one for LEATHERFACE: TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE III was pretty laughable though. There is also a hilarious blooper reel with such sundry scenes as Franklin attempting to get through a doorway in his wheelchair and falling...

Advantages: A great oppertunity to learn all the dances! Disadvantages: Some boring songs.
...Ok, I have already reviewed a Steps Album, so after looking through my DVD collection I found my Steps ‘Gold’ DVD. Now if you have read my Steps ‘Step One’ album review then you will know that when Steps were still together I was a true die-hard Steps fan! I was totally crazy on them! Yes… I know… SAD!!!
Steps Gold was the first DVD released by Steps and also the last! It was released not long before they split up and is a collection of the music videos to all the songs released by them. The proper title of the DVD is actually Steps Gold – Greatest Hits. I suppose the Greatest Hits bit should have given it away that they were due to split up as many bands/groups seem to do after releasing a Greatest Hits album. (They released an album around the same time as the DVD with the same title!)
Anyway, on with the review!

...The Sherminator. Sherman hated Matt's older brother Steve so he decided to make Matt's life a misery and sends him off to Band Camp at Great Oaks. Before Matt goes to Band Camp he orders lots of video equipment so as he can get some live video footage to make a film which will make his brother Steve Stifler proud of him and so as he can become part of the family business which is named Stiffmeister Productions.
American Pie Presents Band Camp is the fourth American Pie film following the success of the previous three films in the sequel. As the name suggests this fourth instalment is about Band Camp, however none of the famous faces from the previous American Pie Films such as Michelle, Jim, Stifler and Finch appear in this sequel, the only characters whom appear in this sequel are Mr Levenstein aka Jim's Dad who is played by Eugene Levy...
