The keen-eyed Logboy spotted this one ...
Universal has announced a release date of December 21st for the North American DVD of Shaun of the Dead, the fantastic zombie comedy from the UK. Which we love. Which we think all people should love. And own. As soon as humanly possible. Which is apparently December 21st.
According to DVD Answers the spec sheet hasn't been announced yet but the assumption is that it will be pretty well identical to the packed-to-the-gills UK DVD, though it may include a couple of new and exclusive features. If they include footage of Edgar and Simon getting body-casted for their body make up for their zombie roles in Romero's Land of the Dead I may just have to trade up ...
And in a completely unrelated public service announcement I offer this reminder: falling off a roof is not as much fun as it may appear.

Hooray for Shaun of the Dead! I'm very excited for the DVD...I've seen the movie three times already in theaters, and I only saw it for the first time a week ago. Also, I don't know how fun falling off a roof seems, but I do know for sure that jumping off a roof and thinking that you'll land in some fluffy bushes is not a safe assumption. Especially if you're drunk. Bushes are generally not fluffy, and even if they were, the chnces of your landing on them instead of the hard sidewalk are pretty negligible.

British Disc is fantastic. Tragically due to the wait for an american release I bought that instead of seeing it in the theatre. Of course I've watched it 3 times already myself...it keeps getting better....Shaun is on the road to joinging the pantheon of great modern comedies: "Clerks" "The Big Lebowski" and "A Fish Called Wanda" and "Ghostbusters"
