The delightfully original story and instant holiday classic garnered sensational ratings when it premiered on ABC in November of 2007, drawing by far the night's highest ratings among adults ages 18-49 and averaging 22.7 million viewers. Featuring the voices of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz and Antonio Banderas, SHREK THE HALLS lets fans join in on the fun as Shrek celebrates his first Christmas with his new family and learns some important lessons about the spirit of the season.

Just when Shrek thought he could finally sit back, relax and enjoy his happily ever after with his new family, the most joyous of all holidays arrives. It's Christmas Eve, and everyone is filled with holiday cheer, except for Shrek. He isn't exactly the picture of yuletide joy, but for the sake of Fiona and the kids, he tries to get into the spirit of things as only an ogre can. Unfortunately, everyone seems to have their own ideas about what Christmas is all about, so when Donkey, Puss In Boots, Gingy and the whole gang try to join in on the fun, Shrek's plans for a cozy family celebration end up spiraling into one truly unforgettable Christmas.

The DVD will be available as a single disc in either full screen or widescreen, as well as in a special two-pack with SHREK THE THIRD and in limited edition holiday packages featuring Holiday Shrek, Holiday Puss, Holiday Donkey or Gingy plush characters.

--"The Twelve Days of Christmas" Sing-Along -- Join along and watch the entire MADAGASCAR gang as they celebrate the holidays in style with their own take on the "Twelve Days of Christmas."
