Xavier Gens’ soul-crushing end of the world yarn THE DIVIDE may still be playing in a few select theaters around the country, but with this kind of film, the DVD/Blu-ray market is really where it’s at. To this end, Anchor Bay is getting a good two month jump on our ass with the announcement of the disc’s street date, which comes about April 17th. Mark the damn date book!
With the great Michael Biehn getting getting support from Lauren German (below), Milo Ventimiglia, Courtney B. Vance, Iván González, Michael Eklund with Ashton Holmes and Rosanna Arquette – THE DIVIDE picks-up when:
A sudden nuclear attack forces nine strangers into a small, decrepit apartment building basement for shelter. Trapped for days underground with no hope of rescue, and unknown horrors awaiting them outside, the group begins to descend into madness, acting out vicious bouts of psychological and physical torture upon one another. As supplies dwindle, tensions flare, and they grow increasingly deranged, each digresses into a volatile and primal state of being. As everyone in the bunker gradually sheds the humanity they once held, even the thinnest chance of escape holds no promise of salvation on the outside.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem you can pre-order THE DIVIDE on DVD/Blu-ray until March 21st. Until then, check out what else Anchor Bay is serving.
