And, in case you missed it in theaters, you won't have to wait long to bring the undead mayhem of the World War II horror movie into your own living room.
Initially reported by ComingSoon.net, Paramount Home Media Distribution will release Overlord on Digital beginning February 5th, followed by a 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD release on February 19th. We have the official press release with full details, as well as a look at the cover art.
From the Press Release: "HOLLYWOOD, Calif. – Produced by J.J.

Embraced by critics, OVERLORD is Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes and was hailed as “wonderfully tense and truly exhilarating” (Jonathan Barkan, Dread Central).
