The Boondock Saints will finally be released to theaters (somewhat).

I was at one of the local Regal Cinemas today catching out Hard Candy when, before the flick, the theater aired an advertisement for a screening of The Boondock Saints on Monday, May 22nd at 8pm. Like other theatrical films Regal Cinemas have screened one night only in order to promote an upcoming video release (the two-disc special edition of the film is released the day after), the film will most likely screen in Christie (blah) digital projection.

I am tempted to go see it if I don't have to work late that night, but I can't find any information on the web about this. I am assuming they'll be screening the unrated cut which will be included on the DVD, but the brief ad made no mention about it nor can I find a website.

So, you know, some help would be helpful.

Do you mean the original movie is being screened or the sequel that never got finished because Duffy couldn't keep his mouth shut?

The original movie. It never got a "true" theatrical release (less than five theaters I believe before it ended up at Blockbuster), so this may be the first and last time most will ever get the chance to see it on a large screen.

Last I heard, the sequel was nothing but rumors.

oh, well that's cool. I wouldn't mind seeing it on the big screen. The sequel was definitely suppose to happen. Duffy had a full blown website going with screen tests, photos, etc....

I saw the same commercial at an AMC Theater in Chicago in the last week. I got the impression they were screening the Unrated version, but that might have just been the DVD.
