Watching DD at a movie theatre never gets old. From the reaction to the funny dialogue from people who've never seen it to the Jet Engine falling and the sound design. Initially I saw DD as a Divx download and was lucky to live near a theatre that re-released it theatrically about a month before the DVD came out.

Mr. Kelly's next film is Southland Tales. As you can click, already there's a spooky website in place. Interesting cast: Sarah Michelle Gellar, Seann William Scottm, Jason Lee, Ali Larter, Tim Blake Nelson, Amy Poehler, Janeane Garofalo and Kevin Smith.
