It looks like Lars von Trier's bitter pill, Antichrist, will see a gorgeous release on DVD and blu-ray from the Criterion Collection November 9. For those of you who haven't seen the film, we reccomend it with a caution that it's not for the faint of heart or the skeptical of arthouse.

Disc Features include:


- A new, restored high-definition digital transfer, approved by director Lars von Trier and supervised by director of photography Anthony Dod Mantle (with DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition).

- Audio commentary by von Trier and professor Murray Smith

- Video interviews with von Trier and actors Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg.

- A collection of video pieces delving into the production of Antichrist, including interviews with von Trier and key members of his filmmaking team as well as behind-the-scenes footage.

- "Chaos Reigns at the Cannes Film Festival 2009," a documentary on the film’s world premiere, plus press interviews with Dafoe and Gainsbourg

- Three theatrical trailers

- A booklet featuring an essay by film scholar Ian Christie
