Damn! And I was looking forward to it...oh well. If it comes here, I guess I may go see it anyway.

US Theatrical Release has finally been set for June 26th. I enjoyed the film quite a bit. Here's a link to the trailer and one of the scenes:

Any clue as to what cities it would be playing in? No notice here.

Sadly, I think it will just be Los Angeles and only for another week.

I'm a reviewer for blu-ray.com and I just got a screener for Surveillance's blu-ray release. I should have a review up in the next two days.

Hi guys, providentially, I picked up the August issue of Rue Morgue Magazine last weekend and it had a really good review of Surveillance. It's a real shame I couldn't see this film on the big screen but it is available on DVD and at Netflix, now sitting at the top of my queue. I think my favorite part of the review is the last paragraph:
However, the ultimate source of horror is arguably the narrative structure itself, which effectively plays games with the viewer. The main problem with this approach is that it invites so much suspicion that many will see the film's major twist in advance. Regardless, in the end, Surveillance's unique approach turns the mystery genre upside down and shakes it hard, breaking bones.
