One of the most controversial films of all-time will make its stateside high-definition debut in October.
The awesome folks at Bloody-Disgusting are reporting that Invincible Pictures will release Srdjan Spasojevic's 'A Serbian Film' on October 25 in limited edition DVD/Blu-ray packaging.
Milosh, a retired porn star, now leads a normal family life with his beautiful wife Maria and six year-old son Petar, in tumultuous Serbia, trying to make ends meet. A sudden call from his former colleague Laylah will change everything. Aware of his financial problems, Laylah introduces Milosh to Vukmir - mysterious, menacing and politically powerful figure. A leading role in Vukmir's new production will provide financial support to Milosh and his family for the rest of their lives. Milosh is hesitant at first because the contract insists that he know nothing about the script before they shoot. But finally, he agrees. From then on, Milosh is drawn into a maelstrom of unbelievable cruelty and mayhem devised by his employer, ''the director'' of his destiny - Vukmir, relentless in his attempt to make an ultimate artistic porn film. Vukmir and his cohorts will stop at nothing to complete his vision. In order to escape the living cinematic hell he's put into and save his family life, Milosh will have to sacrifice everything - his pride, his morality, his sanity, and maybe even his own life.
Specs and supplements are still forthcoming, but you can probably expect 1080p video and a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track as found on foreign versions.
Pricing for the Blu-ray is $19.95 and it can be pre-ordered directly from the studio here.
