Get into "some trouble of a SeRRious nature"

You will believe a moron can fly. The award-winning first film from Shi creator Billy Tucci is finally available on both DVD and VHS in PREVIEWS Exclusive Editions! Don't miss this hilarious tale detailing WW2's final days, one unfortunate Corsair fighter plane, and the hillbillies who are determined to fly it!

After delighting film festival and comic convention audiences around the country, Billy Tucci's award-winning short film some trouble of a SeRRious nature is now exclusively packaged for PREVIEWS customers in two versions, a "Deluxe Diamond DVD Edition" and "Deluxe Diamond VHS Edition."

"Some days it seemed like we'd never pull it off," said writer-director Tucci, "but we persevered, learned a lot and created a film that's made a lot of people laugh. It was an incredibly rewarding process, and I look forward to doing it again very soon."

The DVD edition features an "Extended Director's Cut" with commentary, deleted scenes, a memorial mini-documentary on late star (and pilot) Joe Tobul, Special Effects, pages from the comic book, "Comic book Celebrity Auditions" and more!

Likewise, the VHS edition includes the "Extended Director's Cut," a memorial mini-documentary for Joe Tobul, and behind the scenes special effects.

Both editions come in full-color shrink-wrapped plastic cases and retail for $24.99. The DVD version is limited to 5,000 copies and is signed and numbered by writer-director Billy Tucci.

As a added bonus offered exclusively to Diamond customers is a free DVD copy of Any Damn Fool, an hour-long documentary on the making of some trouble of a SeRRious nature which irreverently chronicles the trials and tribulations of a first-time filmmaker and his torrid production schedule from the film's earliest inception as a 1946 hoax letter to its award-winning debut at the Long Island International Film Expo. Any Damn Fool includes a candid look behind the scenes, production footage, special effects and interviews with the films cast and crew. It's a genuine "must-have" for any fan of comics, film or filmmaking. One copy of this DVD is free to all Diamond retailers for every 10 copies of the Deluxe Diamond DVD Edition of some trouble of a SeRRious nature.
