Elijah Wood and Rainn Wilson Star in the Fresh and Original Horror-Comedy on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD December 1st. 

School lunches will forever be tainted after the disturbing and hilarious "Cooties" arrives on Blu-ray (plus Digital HD), DVD (plus Digital) and Digital HD December 1 from Lionsgate Home Entertainment. The film is currently available On Demand. From the twisted minds of the writer of Insidious and co-creator of “Glee,” the film stars a witty ensemble cast including Elijah Wood ("The Lord of the Rings" trilogy), Rainn Wilson (TV’s “The Office”), Alison Pill (HBO’s “The Newsroom”), Jack McBrayer (TV’s “30 Rock”), Leigh Whannell ("Saw"), Nasim Pedrad (TV’s “Saturday Night Live”), with Ian Brennan (TV’s “Scream Queens”), Jorge Garcia (TV’s “Hawaii Five-0”) and Kate Flannery (TV's "The Office"). Filled with unexpected laughs and unapologetic thrills, the ridiculously entertaining horror-comedy was a Sundance Film Festival premiere hit! 

When a cafeteria food virus turns elementary school children into little killer savages, a group of misfit teachers must band together to escape the playground carnage. The film stars Elijah Wood, Rainn Wilson, and Alison Pill as teachers who fight to survive the most unruly students ever on the worst Monday of their lives!

The Cooties home entertainment release includes an audio commentary with the cast and crew, two behind-the-scenes featurettes, deleted and extended scenes, an alternate ending and gag reel. The Cooties Blu-ray and DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $19.98 and $19.99, respectively.
