Got word tonight on the DVD release of JAMES WAN'S DEATH SENTENCE. Here ya go:
The hardcore story of one man’s quest for vengeance and
justice featuring thrill-a-second action and pulse-pounding stunts, Death
Sentence arrives in an all-new Unrated Edition DVD January 8th from Fox
Home Entertainment. Kevin Bacon (Mystic River,
Hollow Man) stars as
Nick Hume, an everyday family man living a stable, comfortable life - a good
job, a loving wife and two teenage boys. But when a gang initiation takes
the life of his eldest son in the blink of an eye, Hume’s perfect life comes to
a screeching halt. What follows is a series of violent confrontations,
forcing Hume to transform into someone he never thought possible.
Directed by innovative filmmaker James Wan (Saw, Dead Silence)
from the powerful novel by James Garfield (Death Wish), Death
Sentence features gripping supporting performances from Kelly Preston (Sky
High, Jerry Maguire), Aisha Tyler (Balls of Fury, “24”),
Garrett Hedlund (Eragon, Georgia
Rule) and John Goodman (Evan
Almighty, “Roseanne”).
The
Death Sentence DVD features two versions of the film – both the
theatrical rated and an “unrated” cut of the film that includes over 10 minutes
of never-before-seen footage that was too intense for theaters, additional
bonus features include two Fox Movie Channel specials and several
behind-the-scenes webisodes. Death Sentence will be
available to own for the suggested retail price of $29.98 U.S. / $43.48 Canada.
Synopsis:
Nick Hume (Bacon) is a
mild-mannered executive with a loving family and a perfect life, until one

Nick takes the law into his own hands—and wages an all-out war against a gang
of vicious street thugs.

Sure it is more action then horror but trust me, there are some moments that a horror fan will appreciate. James Wan does a great job on this one and you're going to want to check it out.
