George Romero's classic, Day of the Dead, is getting re-mastered and released on Blu-ray. To celebrate the films 25th anniversary, this release will contain a mad amount of extras. It even includes a comic book that tells a new story featuring Bub! But that comic is just the beginning. Not only is the video restored, but it also features a new hi-def soundtrack of the newly-restored 'uncensored dialogue' version, a dual-sided poster, a 24 page booklet, and is available in four collectible sleeves. Here's what this two disc package has to offer:
Disc One (Blu-ray)
* Theatrical feature
* Audio commentary with special effects team of Greg Nicotero, Howard Berger, Everett Burrell and Mike Deak
* Joe Of The Dead – Acting In A Romero Classic
* Travelogue Of The Dead
Disc Two (DVD)

* Photo Album of the Dead

This package of must-have goodness will be released on March 29th. Oh, yeah... there's one tiny detail... it's only available in the UK. D'Oh!
Only in the UK? I'm not currently into the Blu Ray thing, but are Blu Ray discs regioned just like DVDs?
ReplyDeleteI hope not because this sounds pretty damn amazing, and if I could get this in North America (even exported) I would get a Blu Ray player just to watch it.
