District 9 gets Blu-ray release date
District 9, the excellent dark-horse of this year's sci-fi summer blockbusters, is set to be released on Blu-ray on December 28th 2009.
Part mock-documentary, part action flick, District 9 is a gritty examination of how the world would react to an influx of alien refugees.
Tackling issues such as xenophobia and social segregation, District 9 successfully walked the line between brains and action-film brawn.
The Blu-ray release of the film will be displayed in 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 video with a DTS-HD Master audio 5.1 soundtrack.
Featurettes set to be included are:
- Metamorphosis: The Transformation of Wikus
- Innovation: Acting and Improvisation
- Conception and Design: Creating the World of District 9
- Alien Generation: Visual Effects
- A Filmmaker's Log: Three-Part Documentary
The Blu-ray will also include a director's commentary, an interactive map of Johannesburg, Sony's MovieIQ and BD-Live content.
