Update on Versus Release Status

The stunning Japanese action/horror film Versus is currently in French theaters. A French subtitled version of the film will be released to DVD in that country later this year.

The upcoming German DVD version from Legendary Films, Inc. will be an anamorphic widescreen transfer with a second disc containing over an hour of supplementary material. Audio tracks will include the original Japanese and a German dub, but the subtitles will be German only.

The Japanese R2 DVD release scheduled for April 26th will apparently not include any English translation.

Dimension Films has apparently obtained both the American distribution rights and the re-make rights to the film. Unfortunately, in order to maximize the potential of an American re-make, Dimension has no immediate plans to release the original Japanese film in America.
