DVD Easter Eggs
There's more to DVD movies these days that just the film and featurettes. Moviemakers are increasingly hidding bits of amusing or wacky material that you can only find by snooping around. They're usually activated with some remote control trickery at certain points during the film.
They are called 'Easter Eggs' and these hidden gems can be found by hunting out the specified remote control sequences that can be found on the websites listed in this section. Happy egg hunting!
Mark's Region 2 DVD Easter Eggs This may not be the biggest repository of DVD easter eggs, but its a great place for UK egg hunters to turn to to be sure of accessing eggs that are available to region 2 viewers. mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/reg2dvd_eastereggs/ DVDEasterEggs.com With almost 500 films in its database and an ever-growing list of contributions from hardcore egg hunters, this should be your first stop for all egg hunting. The database of film titles is somewhat US-centric though, so you may find that not all eggs are available on UK region 2 DVD's. www.dvdeastereggs.com/showTitles.php DVD Review From the DVD review team, a collection of some 800 DVD easter eggs makes this a site worth visiting.
