SNAP!

Although I paid an extra quid to get it here supposedly quicker... we'll see but fingers crossed.

Wasn't this supposed to be released at the end of the month though?

Agreed .... it was a good film but i cant help feeling that the lead vampire belongs behind a desk with nhs glasses doing accounts or something ... he just has that look about him.

Re: 30 days of Night - Region Free !!!

The main baddie (head vampire) dude reminded me of the geezer out of the Pet Shop Boys ! Didn't find it so scary after that !

Anyway, is the UK blu-ray and US blu-ray the same in terms of specs and extras ? Thanks.

according to dvdtimes they both include commentary, 8 Featurettes and an enhanced photo gallery (blu exclusive). so yes.

Really want this but may have to wait to next month due to buying a few too many blus this month!

Re: 30 days of Night - Region Free !!!

Just got mine yesterday, I can confirm that it's region free, though it does say Region A on the back of the box.

Only gave it a quick glance, picture looks very nice though, colour me impressed!

Top notch, The cinematography is amazing in this movie especially the first few scenes. Looks incredible. The sound is also very impressive.

Re: 30 days of Night - Region Free !!!

Second those opinions - watched this last night after missing it at the cinema and was really impressed, both with the film and the transfer. The celebrated tracking shot over the town was so detailed, I went back several times to try and catch everything that was going on! He he, saddo (or sick pup) that I am....

Great film, great transfer.

Just noticed this thread and want to say:

My Cousin is the director

Not really a fan of this genre but enjoyed the film a lot.

I watched it on blu ray this afternoon,
I really like the strange "inbred" look of the creatures.

Really? Wow, that's pretty cool. I'd easily put this inside my top three vampire movies ever made, along with Near Dark and Blade 2.
