Tucson, AZ - August 26, 2008 - After almost two years of anticipation and anxiety, the long-awaited DVD release of “POSTAL—The Movie” is now. Director Uwe Boll’s first film to draw critical raves has fans that both saw the film in theaters or heard the word second hand ready to pick up and treasure their very own copy of the outrageous satire, inspired by Running With Scissors’ legendary videogame franchise.
The film is based primarily on the POSTAL 2 storyline and stars Zack “Scut Farkis” Ward as the Postal Dude along with Dave “NewsRadio” Foley, Larry “Soup Nazi” Thomas and Verne “Mini-Me” Troyer. Fans will also get a kick out of cameos by RWS honcho Vince Desi and Uwe Boll as the lederhosen clad proprietor of a Bavarian, crypto-Nazi theme park.
Vivendi has officially announced its DVD rollout for August 26th, with an MSRP of $26.99 (Rated and Unrated versions). Extras include a Uwe commentary, deleted scenes, special features (“Raging Boll” and an Indiana Jones spoof starring Troyer) along with a copy of the PC version of POSTAL 2 as well as the multi-player POSTAL 2: Share the Pain. A Blu-ray edition (with identical extras) will also be available to play on your PS3 or other Blu-ray DVD for a MSRP of $34.99.
“Own a piece of history! Only buying the DVD will get you the full complete outrageous movie and game, sadly the rental version is edited down and doesn’t include the infamous Postal games-so don’t get beat renting it.” explained Vince Desi. “The Postal Movie on DVD means EVERYONE will have the opportunity to see it, even Usama Bin-Laden from his cave won’t want to miss this."
The POSTAL film and videogames package will be available at a wide range of retail outlets, including Walmart, Best Buy, Borders, Amazon, Hastings and Virgin.
