Man Bites Dog Blu-ray from Imprint Films Coming March 26
Discover the refined chaos in Man Bites Dog, a Belgian classic with fresh insights, now on Blu-ray from Imprint Films.
The much-discussed Belgian mockumentary Man Bites Dog is poised for a vibrant return with its Blu-ray release from Imprint Films, landing on shelves March 26. Known for its unique blend of comedy and gritty realism, this film follows a film crew that loses its objectivity while documenting the crimes of a brazen killer.
Man Bites Dog, originally created by then-student filmmakers Rémy Belvaux, André Bonzel, and Benoît Poelvoorde, is recognized for its influence on later works like Quentin Tarantino's Natural Born Killers. The team shot the film on a budget-friendly Black & White 16mm film, yet it garnered acclaim and awards from prestigious platforms such as Cannes Film Festival and Toronto International Film Festival.
This release comes enriched with a host of new features. Of particular interest is the NEW Man with a Movie Camera, a featurette that delves into the found footage legacy left by this cult classic, complemented by interviews with filmmakers such as Dean Alioto and Stephen Volk. Furthermore, an exclusive NEW Audio Commentary by film historian Samm Deighan provides deep insights into this pivotal work.
Fans will also appreciate the uncensored experience of the FULLY UNCUT VERSION OF THE FILM and additional features like Deleted and Alternate Scenes as well as the short film No C4 for Daniel-Daniel AKA Pas De C4 Pour Daniel-Daniel. The dialogue, originally in French, is accessible to a broader audience with English subtitles.
