Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will release the Peter Jackson-produced District 9, on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on December 29 everywhere else, but Kiwis get the chance to return to South Africa on December 16 under a special exemption deal.
The US$114 million-grossing film, which is nudging $2.5 million at the local box office, will help cap off a fourth quarter already packed with a number of blockbusters, including Transformers 2, Up and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
