The Crazies Blu-ray isn't out for a while yet, so I doubt anyone's been able to test it. However, going by Blue Underground's recent Blu-ray output, I'd be very surprised if it wasn't region-free.

As for the region-free Blu-ray player, I haven't rushed out for one, although it'd be nice to have. Along with the recent Aldi special, I just think it bodes well for the future in that more and more region-free capable players will come to market. The manufacturers know people want them, so I reckon they'll start arriving thick and fast before long - and I'll no doubt pick one up at some point. For now, I'm not really all that bothered about being locked to Region B. It's a temporary thing. And if region-free players don't hit in a big way, I'll just snap up a cheap Region A player as a secondary machine.

Thanks for the info Daemonia. Didnt notice the big "Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available." message on amazon, must be going internet blind. :doh:

Its still on schedule. There are people who already have review copies.

:rolleyes:

who wants to watch that piece of s**t let alone buy it :lol:

Be careful! The Canadian release is Region-locked. I bought the doublepack of HALLOWEEN and HALLOWEEN II from PlayUSA and both are on the Alliance label and region locked.

Here's hoping this is region free when it's released by Lionsgate in april.

I can comfirm that the US Blu-ray of The Quuck and the Dead is region-free - but, as I posted on a separate thread, it's the cut US theatrical version. According to DVD Compare the UK Blu-ray release is the full-length uncut international version.

****!
That's the one I've ordered!:mad:
