From D's co-star Melanie Zanetti:

That's fast! This one got snapped up quickly...

[Jox]

Not that fast (filming wrapped early July), it's just the release of it (which usually takes at least 6 months from total completion of the film usually (and this one was completed only weeks ago). IF THIS RELEASE GETS CONFIRMED...

[Jox]

Can't confirm this one either because I haven't found a reliable link yet but it seems BOTD will be released this month as well, on April 25th (theatrical?)...

With the horror/zombie element, this one actually could get a wide following, as horror can sometimes if not often be more successful than plain action these days. And it seems the "Dolph shooting down zombies" pitch kinda get people exited, like as if he was to star in DOOM or DUKE NUKEM...

Oh sorry, in Russia...!

Is the film released in some areas or has there been screenings?
Currently has a 4.5 score on IMDB based on 11 user ratings.

There is also one review linked. My understanding in German is limited but from what I gather this one could easily be fake:

It was screened for cast and crew. I thought it was released in Kuwait and Oman this week but apparently it's not. The producer told me it's not been delivered yet. Yet it's programmed in some theaters in Moscow by the end of the month... This review sounds fake.

The review on our blog http://filmchecker.wordpress.com isnt a fake. We get a copy by the german publisher "Sunfilm". This publisher will release the movie in germany in summer/autumn. The reason for getting the copy was, that the publisher will take a citation of us for the upcoming blu-ray cover!

Any hints at who might be picking this up in the UK. I might try and nab myself a screener for it.

[Jox]

Nope... don't know who picked it up in the US either, don't know about any distributors except for the ones listed on IMDB. As I said the producer told me it was not even delivered so I don't know what that is about.

Interesting thanks.

Apparently Germany should probably be the first territory to release it, likely in the fall I'm told.

I'm guessing that the UK release should be handled by either Anchor Bay or Lionsgate. They handle most of Dolph's output for the last few years, aside from Stash House... but that was down to G2 films doing a deal for the After Dark series, I believe.

[Jox]

I bet on Anchor Bay, they love that horror-ish stuff.
