In Memorium on DVD: "Before Paranormal Activity, and listed on Blumhouse's website as one of “13 Lesser-Known Found-Footage Horror Films We Dare You to Watch," the ground-breaking 2004 horror feature In Memorium finally makes its OFFICIAL DVD release:

Two months after a grim diagnosis, struggling filmmaker Dennis Wade decides to document his final days. Still free from symptoms, he and his girlfriend Lily sublet a house and install motion-triggered security cameras throughout. The following night, the mounted cameras capture a sinister presence in one of the empty rooms. The next morning, Dennis's illness begins to advance at an inexplicable rate.

Featuring rarely seen disc-face artwork adapted from the film's inception poster design, this official DVD includes English subtitles, Writer/Director commentary, and the film's original 2004 trailer."
