This release caused quite some commotion and controversy at various horror communities. And still does. Two of the guys releasing this were responsible for some serious Internet drama eight years ago, but people didn't forget. In a nutshell: some folks are boycotting the blu-ray because one of the guys is/was a racist and homophobe (he said he's a changed person now but I think he said that so it won't hurt sales).
Same insane guy attacked me at a forum back then when he went on a mad posting spree
I'm not the one to hold a grudge for eternity though. I might buy the blu even if I feel a bit uncomfortable in doing so.
