Forget waiting for this in the US, Vertigo Films and Contender Home Entertainment have announced the UK DVD and Blu-ray Disc release of The Children for March 30, 2009. This British horror is written and directed by Tom Shankland (WAZ) and based on a screenplay by Paul Andrew Williams (London To Brighton). Set at Christmas, what starts as a relaxing house party for two families coming together to celebrate the festive season gradually turns into a horrifying fight for survival as one by one the children mysteriously fall ill and begin to turn against their parents with increasingly disturbing consequences. Read on for specs and art.

Extras include:
-The making of The Children
-Location Featurette
-Paul Hyatt talks Prosthetics
-Snow Set Design Featurette
-Deleted Scenes
-Tom Shankland’s On-Set Lair
-Working with Children Featurette

Notice how most of the best horror movies of the last five years have been released overseas first, and we have to wait sometimes many years before we get them here. I'm moving to england.

ATTENTION: Guys and gals; you need to get a region free dvd player - then you can see all that good shit. I've got this one on order, I already have REC, Mum & Dad, 10 Rillington Place, and the best kept secret in the zombie genre Dead Set. Go to Amazon UK and pull up the reviews for these. Lots of good stuff you could be watching now.

Coldblood, you can also rip with CloneDVD legally and it will make the movie playable on any player...a lot cheaper.

This was one of the best films I saw in 2008. It scarred the shit out of me and has a nasty feeling of menace running throughout. Also, it's nothing like Eden Lake! Glad to see it has some decent extras. I'll definately be picking this one up (currently £9.98 on amazon.co.uk) :)
