Blood Simple (1984) - DVD - Used - Criterion Collection

Blood Simple is The Coen's brother's first film and we'd argue that it's about as close to a horror movie as they would make. A lot of this has to do with their amazing ability to build tension, not to mention some cool make up effects, a shot or two directly inspired by Evil Dead, and the perfomance of M. Emmet Walsh as the slimiest Private Detective ever put on screen. 

Special Features:
Several new conversations between the Coen's and Simple's cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld.
Interviews with actors Frances McDormand and M. Emmet Walsh
