Product Description
Beneath the surface of small-town serenity lies a dark domain where innocents dare not tread and unpredictability is the norm. It is the haunting realm of BLUE VELVET. Clean-cut Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) realizes his Mayberry-like hometown is not so normal when he discovers a human ear in a field. His investigation catapults him into an alluring, erotic murder mystery involving a disturbed nightclub's singer (Isabella Rossellini) and a drug-addicted sadist (Dennis Hopper). Soon Jeffrey is led deeper into their depraved existence... to the point of no return.

Lynch transports us to Lumberton, where the idyllic facade masks a disturbing underbelly. Protagonist Jeffrey Beaumont, played by Kyle MacLachlan, embarks on an unsettling journey into the town's shadows, blurring the lines between good and evil.
What sets "Blue Velvet" apart is its unapologetic weirdness. Lynch's ability to blend the ordinary with the bizarre is enthralling, with dreamlike sequences, surreal visuals, and a haunting score creating an eerie atmosphere. Dennis Hopper's portrayal of the unhinged Frank Booth is unforgettable, adding to the film's nightmarish quality.
This movie challenges our perceptions of reality and morality, delving into hidden perversions lurking beneath suburban normalcy. "Blue Velvet" is a timeless classic that continues to captivate and disturb audiences. It's a must-see for those seeking a cinematic experience that pushes boundaries and leaves a lasting, haunting impression. Lynch's genius is on full display, offering a journey into the depths of the human psyche that you won't soon forget.
With Blue Velvet, Lynch succeeds in perhaps the highest single accomplishment art can aspire to (at a human level, anyway): he shows us that, if reality is a dream and dream reality, then we, as both the dreamers and the dream, are the ultimate unfathomables: we are strangers to ourselves.

After doing research on the item's description I learned that Blu-ray.com list only one release of Blue Velvet in the U.S, which is this 25th anniversary release, as Region Free. People in the comments section also have said it's Region Free.
People in the comments section of Amazon also constantly talk about Amazon not being accurate always with their Imports as with some they assume it is maybe region locked, and are unsure about it being region free.
So with all this I confidently bought my item to be imported. Unfortunately for me, I then learned there was in-fact, two different releases of this title, one is Region-A locked and the other is Region free, not sure why this is as it seems to make no sense but there you have it.
There is also no region free listed version of the 25th anniversary edition so that also is annoying.
My item had already dispatched before I realised this, but just to warn potential buyers to clarify with the seller, or ensure they're getting the correct version of the film before you end up like me.
The 25th Anniversary edition includes 51 minutes of unseen footage which was supposedly lost but now is included on the disk restored which makes this version the definitive version of Blue Velvet. The film itself is great and for people who enjoy films dealing with adult viewing material, the struggle of good vs evil and in this case, good seemingly having no hope against the flame that burns ever so strongly (You'll get that reference when you watch the film) in Frank Booth, then this film is certainly one you won't want to miss.
EDIT -- Ok, so the item arrived from America today and as anticipated it has a Region A on the back of the Blu-ray. I thought I'd give it a try anyway for a last resort and the disk had no region on it which was strange as the case specified A. Inserted it into my B-locked player and wouldn't you just know it, region free.
Not sure if every disk is like that but turned out so in my case. Seller informed me it was A locked, case also confirmed that, but the disk played. Probably the most unpredictable blu-ray purchase I've made.
EXTRA FEATURES:
- Mysteries of Love (SD; 1:10:45) is a comprehensive retrospective which gives a lot of background on Lynch's formulation of the project.
Interviews with most of the principal cast as well as Lynch are included, along with behind the scenes footage.
- Newly Discovered Lost Footage (HD; 51:42). This will be the big calling card in terms of supplements for longtime fans of the film. As Lynch somewhat cheekily includes as a prologue, "It's like the song 'Amazing Grace,' the footage was lost but now it's found." There's some expectedly outré stuff here, including several sequences featuring full frontal female nudity (which may have had at least something to do with those scenes not making it to the final cut of the film, since Lynch was already pushing the envelope to the breaking point with regard to Rossellini's nudity and other elements of her character). Keep an eye out for a very young Megan Mullally, replete with Farrah Fawcett hair, as Jeffrey's erstwhile girlfriend Louise.
- A Few Outtakes (HD; 1:33) offers some ad libs and silly moments.
- Siskel and Ebert 'At the Movies' (SD; 1:30) is the pair's 1986 summation of the film. One of them didn't exactly love the film.
- Vignettes offers I Like Coffee Shops (SD; 00:22), The Chicken Walk (SD; 00:55), The Robin (SD; 1:33), Sita (SD; 00:45), four snippets mixing moments from the film with interviews with Lynch, MacLachlan, Rossellini and others.
