Thanks anyways chrishicks. By the time that one reaches my door, the R1 will be in the stores and I won't be dinged with a customs bill (Yesasia has a US branch and i got raped for customs last time I ordered a DVD from them).

I just placed my order at play-asia.com. Thanks for the alternative link. I hope it gets here before the R1 hits the stores :).
My web browser wasn't displaying the "status" image on play-asia.com. Can someone verify that this is in stock and ready to ship ? I think the site doesn't like the fact I'm using Mozilla Firefox.

I can wait the extra two months. Although I do prefer this cover. Much creepier.

CDWow here is the US site what I got mine from. Link below gives $1 off - so $16.95, shipped
http://www1.cd-wow.net/index.php?affid=10963
Just do a search on dawn of the Dead. They have 4 versions - the US, the UK, the HK, and the Anchor Bay ultimate (1978 version). I'd post a direct link to the R3 HK one but it would stuff the $1 off I think:. Are, here I'll try
<deleted> - nah it doesn't work - looses the discount
Note their price on the Anchor Bay set is quite nice. If you preorder, they will charge your credit card immediately though I believe.
I ordered mine yesterday.

I ordered my new '04' Dawn of the Dead on dvd from them. I paid regular postage. Cam about 1.5 weeks later from Hong Kong. I recommed them, seems to be a good company to order from.

:( Just watched the Director's Cut yesterday.... and all I can say is that those expecting lots of additional gore will be very disappointed. I couldn't make out any big difference between the theatrical version and this one - except for a small scene where one of the characters talks about how he became gay. Still a cool movie, but no match for Romero's original.
Edit: This site lists all the new scenes with screenshots.

what are u talking about? there was a pretty good extra amount of gore and additional character development. everyone should definately be pleased imho.

There is definately alot of extra gore spattered throughout. Got this in yesterday! (Ebay Rulez!)

Actually, I thought they could have done a better job on the transfer. The tint was slightly off so I had to re-adjust my TV set to get proper flesh tones .... I could be the only one, but I do have my TV properly calibrated ....

Well. I do remember it having a very odd look in theaters. A lot of things seemed off, but I think that was the look they were going for.

I have watched Shaun of The Dead already. I purchased a DVD from eBay that I have wanted for a long time, Directed by Scott Spiegel, called Intruder, this was about a 5 weeks ago. In the package, was my Intruder DVD, and a little surprise. A copy of Shaun Of The Dead. It is a really good movie. Its coming out next month at the theaters, but it will probably be cut.
If it only got a 15 rating in the UK, I doubt it'll be cut. Already been rated, anyhow:
Rated R for zombie violence/gore and language.

I think you're right grim. I now remember it being slightly off in the theatre too ... in the same way like 28 Days Later was.

I know the X-fer was really great. I have my PJ calibrated with 2 setting on both Sound & Vision "and" AVIA and at both setting w/ the Yamakawa looks surpurb.
I went down to my 27" TV in the famlily room and also the PC , which is only calibrated w/ my eyes setting and it looks rich. Very nice X-fer and a thumbs up, either or. Never one did the colors fade or looked dull. ;)
