Underappreciated at the time of its release, IDLE HANDS now stands as one of the best horror/comedies of the ’90s, and it’s being celebrated with a Collector’s Edition Blu-ray. The complete specs have been revealed, and you can see them and the cover art after the jump.

Fox and, in one of her first roles, Jessica Alba co-star. The movie will be presented in 1080p hi-def 1.85:1 widescreen with DTS-HD Master Audio, accompanied by these special features:
