The 2-Disc DVD Drops May 23, 2006

CENTURY CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--May 3, 2006--Brothers. Killers. Saints. Fox Home Entertainment presents one of the most sensational and graphic cult films in recent memory with first-time writer/director Troy Duffy's violent, character-driven masterpiece THE BOONDOCK SAINTS, available in an all-new UNRATED SPECIAL EDITION DVD and PSP on May 23, 2006. After killing a mobster, fraternal twins Connor and Murphy MacManus come to believe that God has ordained them to rid the earth of evil men. As the public and even a local FBI agent assigned to track them down begin to support their efforts, one thing becomes abundantly clear: Before the MacManus Brothers get to heaven, they're gonna raise a little hell.

An intelligent, stylish and gritty modern day morality tale written in blood, THE BOONDOCK SAINTS was heralded by critics nationwide and embraced by cult film fanatics everywhere in the similar tradition of Reservoir Dogs, Snatch and Donnie Darko. Featuring powerful performances by an all-star cast including Academy Award(R) nominee Willem Dafoe (Spider-Man, The Clearing), Sean Patrick Flanery (Suicide Kings, Powder), Billy Connolly (The Last Samurai, Timeline) and Norman Reedus (Deuces Wild, Blade II), THE BOONDOCK SAINTS: UNRATED SPECIAL EDITION two-disc DVD will be available for $26.98 U.S. / $41.98 Canada SRP and will also be available on PSP for $19.98 U.S. / $21.98 Canada SRP.

DVD Special Features

Digitally remastered in high-definition with English Dolby Digital 6.1 surround sound presented in both widescreen and full screen versions, THE BOONDOCK SAINTS: UNRATED SPECIAL EDITION DVD is highlighted with bonus features including audio commentary with writer/director Troy Duffy and Billy Connolly, deleted scenes, an outtake reel and trailers.

Synopsis

Irish brothers Connor and Murphy MacManus live and work in South Boston. After killing a Russian mobster in self-defense, the brothers believe they have found their calling from God to rid the earth of human evil. So they set out to complete their divine deed by ridding the streets of gangsters, criminals and lowlifes; and as the body count rises, the brothers become local heroes (deemed the "Boondock
Saints") even as the police are on their trail. By risking their lives for their beliefs of Veritas (truth) and Aequitas (justice), the vigilante brothers take the law into their own hands ... until they are pursued by unorthodox FBI agent Paul Smecker, who follows their trail of bloodshed, but admits that the boys are doing exactly what he has always secretly wished to happen.
