If you’re itching to see Kevin Smith’s RED STATE this fall, you’re going to have many opportunities. We’ve known for a while that it was scheduled to hit Video On Demand on SEPTEMBER 1st, but now Lionsgate has announced that the controversial film will land on DVD and Blu-ray on OCTOBER 18th. In addition, the flick is heading to theaters on SEPTEMBER 23rd via Smodcast Pictures; you can probably expect that to be a very limited release.

Among the special features on the Blu-ray/DVD:

Give the man this: He’s making the movie available to just about everybody. (He’s already toured the country with the damn thing, albeit with exorbitant prices.) The mission is yours if you choose to accept it.

Three teenage boys are lured to the town of Cooper’s Dell with the promise of a party. But instead of enjoying the night of their dreams, the teens are plunged into the nightmarish world of Pastor Abin Cooper and the Five Points Trinity, a fundamentalist group with a stockpile of weaponry and a deadly moral agenda. When word of the teens’ disappearance reaches the authorities, a military task force is mobilized. With Cooper’s Dell teetering between salvation and damnation, the ATF braces for furious gun battle with Cooper and his heavily armed followers in this fever-pitched action thriller from writer-director Kevin Smith.
