SKYLINE - Blu-Ray/DVD Release

From the visual effects masterminds behind Avatar, 300, Iron Man 2 comes the Sci-Fi Thriller Skyline. We just got word that it will be arriving in stores March 22, 2011 on Blu-Ray, DVD, and digital download. If you missed it in theaters, this is a must have.



Check out the press release we got from the studio with the additional features:

OVERVIEW: It was supposed to be a simple birthday weekend in Southern California. But when sunrise arrives two hours early in the form of a haunting light from an unknown source, a group of friends watch in terror as people across the city are drawn outside and swept into massive alien ships that have blotted out the Los Angeles skyline. From tankers to drones and hydra-like extraterrestrials, the aliens are inescapable and seemingly indestructible. From the masterful directors, The Brothers Strause Skyline will keep you guessing in this action-packed sci-fi adventure.

In this heart-pounding thrill ride starring Eric Balfour (“Haven,” “24”), Donald Faison ("Scrubs,"Clueless), David Zayas (“Dexter”), Brittany Daniel (Little Man, “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”) and Scottie Thompson (“Trauma,” Star Trek), Skyline will take every survival instinct a group of friends has to elude capture. Skyline debuts on Blu-Ray™ Hi-Def, DVD, Digital Download and On-Demand on March 22, 2011 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.
