and here are some of the specs, thanks to DVDAnswers:

Title: Shaun of the Dead
Starring: Simon Pegg
Released: 21st December 2004
SRP: $29.98

Further Details
Universal has set an official release date for Shaun of the Dead which stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. This hugely popular zombie flick will be available to own from the 21st December this year. The retail price will be set at around $29.98. The film itself should be presented in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen along with English, French and Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1 tracks. I'm afraid that the extra features have yet to be confirmed by Universal, although we're pretty sure that the disc specs will be more or less identical to the region two release. Therefore you should expect four audio commentaries with the cast and crew, extended bits, makeup tests, video diaries from Simon Pegg and Lucy Davis, trailers and more. For the full specs, please refer to the region two related article at the bottom of this page. We're also hearing that the US disc will include a couple of exclusive features, although we're still waiting on confirmation. We'll bring you further details on this one, including a look at the official artwork, shortly. Stay tuned.

Further R2 Details
Universal has officially announced Shaun of the Dead which stars Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Dylan Moran, Kate Ashfield and Lucy Davis. The film, described as a romantic comedy - with zombies, will be available to own from the 6th September this year, priced at around £19.99. Extra features will include an audio commentary by Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright, a second commentary by Pegg and co-stars Nick Frost, Dylan Moran, Kate Ashfield and Lucy Davis, a third with stars Bill Nighy and Penelope Wilton and a fourth by the zombies themselves! The disc will also feature extended bits with commentary, outtakes, a Man Who Would Be Shaun feature in which Simon Pegg and Nick Frost impersonate Sean Connery and Michael Caine and a new Funky Pete sequence in which Pete's swearing sequence is re-dubbed. But wait, there's more. Three comic strip sequences will fill in some of the plotholes (such as how did Ed get from the cellar to the shed) and a TV Bits feature which carries extended versions of the TV shows within the movie (Coldplay on T4, It's a Knockout Zombies, Trisha etc). Completing the set will be A Raw Meat making of featurette, five trailers and TV spots, three Zombie pic galleries, a storyboard comparison and a Zomb-O-Meter trivia track.

Exacto-mundo for me.

[pcgirl]

I already have the region 2 release, and unless it has loads of special features that the R2 release didn't get, I won't buy it.

[bob]

Yeah, I loved this flick. A definite pickup for me.

[Mav-Man]

I haven't seen it yet. But from the previews I've seen I'm definitely going to pick this up. A movie that has zombies/comedy/horror/romance has gotta be worth it.
