In a late-breaking announcement, City Lights says it will bring the star-studded
religious satire 'The Ten'
to HD DVD this month.
Despite an ensemble cast filled with big names including Winona Ryder, Jessica
Alba, Paul Rudd, and Liev Schriber, 'The Ten' barely rated a theatrical release this past
August, eventually earning less than $1 million at the domestic box office.
'The Ten' marks the first high-def release from indie City Lights Home Entertainment, which will debut the title on HD DVD January 15, day-and-date with the standard
DVD.
Tech specs for the high-def version include 1080p video (1.85:1 widescreen),
with Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1 Surround audio. There are no announced supplemental
features.
Retail for the HD DVD is $29.95.
