One of my favorite films of the year and certainly one of the most interesting Hong Kong thrillers of recent years, Soi Cheang's Accident comes to DVD and Blu-Ray in Hong Kong next week.  Both editions are fully English friendly and while the DVD is listed as Region 3 - meaning you would need to have a region free player to view it here in North America - the Blu-Ray, as is the case with all Hong Kong releases, is Region A making it fully compatible with local equipment.

It's been a busy stretch for Asian film releases, actually, with high profile films like Chaw, Mother, Turning Point, Kung Fu CyborgOverheard and Invitation Only all fresh to DVD and some classics - like the entire Bruce Lee catalog! - getting remastered Blu-Ray releases.

Awesome! Any idea when the US version will become available. Shouldn't be too long right?
