Man, almost 2 years since you wrote this and I don't think anyone has made a move to release it in the states.
Doesnt bode well for Region 1 blu of UFO. This region nonsense sucks - what's the point when noone will release something in your own region? Who is it helping?
Word has it Madmen Entertainment Australia have plans to release UFO, but no date yet.

By the way, since the discussion is currently about regions and what discs will play, can anyone tell me how, by just looking at a Blu-Ray or DVD disc and/or cover, what region it was made for? Thanks.
Region marks are on the package labeling, and sometimes the discs themselves. DVD regions are numbers ("0" is regionless, which will play anywhere), and letters are Blu-ray. I don't know if there's any common logo for the region codes—I've seen stylized world globes, circles, a hexagon with a circle in it, etc.
I think the original purpose of region codes was to control when and where a title could be played. (A movie might open in one country first, and others some weeks later.) Now that many movies are released simultaneously in cinema, streaming, and physical home media, region coding seems kinda silly.
I've bought region-free players in the past, but now rip everything into the media center computer. Many titles I will watch a few times, then donate them to the local library. I can always sign them out later if I want to see it again. The only media I can't donate are those from other regions. (Many home users wouldn't have a clue why a disc wasn't playing.)
