June 3rd, 2011 by Blu-ray Brian
Much like my counterparts feel about Burlesque, that’s how I feel about Dylan Dog: Dead of Night. I don’t know if I will ever catch this movie, but nevertheless, there is a cult of fans out there who are dying to see this for one reason or another. So for those fans, I salute you. And I have good news for you! Dylan Dog will be barking, oops…I mean making its Blu-ray debut on July 26th from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. So are you ready to battle the undead to save the living? If so, read on below. This one is dedicated to you Gregg!
LOS ANGELES (June 2, 2011) – Paranormal crime scenes combined with comedic mishaps are all in a day’s work for New Orleans’ most surreptitious investigator in DYLAN DOG: DEAD OF NIGHT, arriving on Blu-ray and DVD July 26th from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. The producers ofTerminator Salvation and Cowboys & Aliens introduce audiences to a whole new genre of dark fantasy filmmaking that blends crime-fighting and humor in this tongue-in-cheek supernatural horror in the spirit of Zombieland and Shaun of the Dead.
Brandon Routh (Superman Returns) stars as Dylan Dog, a supernatural detective who will go where the living dare not — facing friend and foe alike in the monster infested backstreets of New Orleans. Armed with an edgy wit and an arsenal of silver and wood-tipped bullets, Dylan must solve a series of murders before an epic war ensues between his werewolf, vampire and zombie clients. Based on one of the world’s most popular comic books (over 60 million copies sold), this inventive horror comedy will slay you with humor and genuine frights.
Acclaimed horror director Kevin Munroe (TMNT) guides this comedic cast, which also includes Taye Diggs (“Private Practice”), Peter Stormare (Minority Report), Sam Huntington (“Being Human”), and Kurt Angle (Death From Above).
I saw this in the theater a month or so ago. That’s some pretty quick turn-around time to disc. It was so-so and will make a good rental. Sam Huntington was an awesome addition to this movie.
I’ll give this a rental.
@ Gerard…Why?
Looks quirky.
I’m with Gerard.
Not a great movie, but I thought it was fun. Reminded me a lot of eighties cult horror flicks.
