The Brilliant horror / comedy One Cut of the Dead is getting a special edition Blu ray release in the UK by Third Window Films on January 28th.
A cast of relative unknowns, a brilliantly disguised low budget and an epic, 37-minute opening single take makes Shinichiro Ueda’s feature debut a bright, breezy and laugh-out-loud hilarious zombie comedy. A film crew is shooting a zombie horror flick in an abandoned water filtration plant, allegedly used for human experiments by the military. Just as the director browbeats his actors and demands more special effects blood, a real zombie apocalypse erupts, much to his auteur delight.
The film was a box office smash in Japan and became The most successful independent film in Japanese cinema history!
The Blu ray will also feature the following extras –
Interview with director Shinichiro Ueda (17min)
Making Of (45min) Take 8 short film (20min)
Outtakes (5min)
Go-Pro version of one-cut (38min)
POM TV Instruction Video (1 min)

Definately one of the most original and hilarious films about making a film and without a doubt it will become a cult classic.
