Finally, after what seems like years of waiting, the much-anticipated director’s cut of Alex Proyas’ Dark City is finally coming to both DVD and Blu-ray. New Line Home Entertainment have announced the full specs for this new release of the 1998 film, which will also include the original theatrical version. Extras include:
- 3 audio commentary tracks (with director Alex Proyas, Writers Lem Dobbs, and David S Goyer, Director of Photography Dariusz Wolski, Production Designer Patrick Tatopoulous, and film critic Roger Ebert)

According to the running time on the package, it looks like the director’s cut will be approximately 11 minutes longer. I can’t wait to get my hands on this… it seems like a good reason to finally buy a Blu-ray player too. Look for the Dark City Director’s Cut in stores on July 29th for a retail price of $19.97 ($34.99 for Blu-ray).

Definitely worth picking up. It will look awesome on Blu-Ray. Now I just have to get a player.
