Yeah, we have it at the video rental store. The German 2-discer comes in a steelbook though which I think I am going for.

I wish I was mainlaind europian and had a steelbook.

Heys so I really want to see this film tbh. Shame im poorer than a homless man's scrotum (just bought a flat).

Is it anything like donnie darko? Been told that the two are similar (if not identical).

The only similar aspect to "Donnie Darko" would in my opinion be that it is a very good independent film.

Oh yes of course, I forgot I meant all that litteraly!!!. Excuse me while I find the value of a homeless man's scrotum. :scratch:

LD, do you know if the extras on the steelbook match the UK R2? It certainly has nicer artwork (the UK is spoiled with quotes). But anyway, I'd pick extras first and then artwork second. Cheers man.

Saw this a few months ago and found it very good, indeed. Nice to see Claire, from LOST, in a better role. Nice twists and good acting, especially from the lead guy (can't remember his name -- was the little kid in Third Rock From The Sun; double last name). Good writing adn well done.

Joseph Gordon Levitt you mean? He's made a name for himself in indy films with this and that Gregg Araki film. Gregg Araki needs to die, fucking degenerate.
