I don't know if there's one out now or not. Keep yours eyes open and check around at amazon.com and places like that. You can preorder it now from Amazon. I don't know if thats the DVD or VHS. Check it out.

Blockbuster Video owns the rights to the film, since they bought them at Sundance. That means ONLY Blockbuster video has "Shadow Hours" on VHS & DVD. You might want to check their pre-viewed DVD's, that's how I came across a copy of this disturbing little picture, and bought it for $9.99.

Do you guys know that this movie is basically "The Inferno" from Dante's Divine Comedy.
In the book, Dante is trying to get to Heaven, but has to go through hell to get there. Dante is accompanied by Virgil, a supernatural being sent to help him on his voyage.
Now the way that I saw it is that the Gas station guy is Dante, That creepy guy is Virgil, and the whole movie is basically his voyage through Hell to Heaven, Heaven being moving out of the city with his girlfriend. The creepy guy evens spouts some lines from the book (I can't remember what ones, I haven't seen the movie in awhile...)
I read into things too deeply sometimes, but this one was cool. Did anybody else see the modernization of Dante's immortal Classic in the movie?

This movie makes Dante's Inferno read like Winnie the Pooh.
