Shaun of the Dead celebrates its 20th anniversary with a new 4K UHD steelbook Blu-ray

Last month, the Edgar Wright comedy Shaun of the Dead returned to theaters to celebrate 20 bloody years. The festivities continue with an all-new 4K release. Blu-ray.com has released a load of details that come with the brand-new limited edition physical copies. The film that made Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright international sensations is due to hit retailers on December 3. A standard 4K Blu-ray edition will also be available to own.

Director Edgar Wright looks back at the 20 years of his film and states, “Twenty years ago, the worldwide release of Shaun of the Dead changed my life forever. Its reception since then has continued to be incredible, largely due to the passionate fans who have championed it with cricket bats aloft. Now, as we celebrate its bloody 20th anniversary with a brand-new Dolby Atmos and Vision remastered version, I’m beyond excited for everyone to experience it once again on the big screen—the way it was always meant to be seen: large, loud, and with quite a lot of red on it.”
