Tuesday, August 14 releases -
Acts of Death: Lionsgate Rehearsals can be a killer! Baxter University's theater group has a secret club that "initiates" young freshmen girls. When one initiation gets out of hand, a beautiful actress dies a tragic and horrific death. Too scared to confess their crime, the group tries to get away with the murder. But the next night, when the group stays late for rehearsal, it becomes apparent that someone wants them to pay for their actions. How many will die before the final curtain comes down on these killers? Carved (a.k.a. The Slit-Mouthed Woman): Tartan Legend holds that 30 years ago, a suburban town was terrorized by the spirit of a woman whose beautiful face had been grotesquely disfigured by a jealous husband. Roaming the streets wearing a long coat and surgical mask, the spirit would approach her young victims and, while removing the mask, ask if she was pretty. The victim’s response would almost always lead to their violent death. Now, one by one, children are disappearing again. As teachers and officials desperately begin to investigate, a panic begins to build as the woman’s spirit returns for some unfinished business and the town's dark secrets are exposed. The Empty Acre: Cinema Epoch Beth and Jacob have a normal life, a healthy son, and a farm with a secret: a field where nothing lives. Cattle that stray too near die. Townspeople disappear in the night. And every day the dead acre grows larger. Then one night, Beth and Jacob's infant son is taken from them. What follows is a frantic search for their child. Graveyard of Honor: Animego Rikuo Ishimatsu is a lowly dishwasher who unknowingly saves the life of a Yakuza Oyabun and quickly rises to a position of power in his gang. Loyally supporting his Oyabun and his brother gangsters, Ishimatsu wreaks havoc on anyone who stands in their way, inevitably earning himself a trip to the slammer. Not necessarily horror, this 2002 Takashi Miike film still deserves a bloody good look. Grindhouse Universe: Ban 1 From the Creators of 42nd Street Forever comes GRINDHOUSE UNIVERSE. This is the all new Ban 1 Productions cult trailer DVD! With over 2 1/2 hours worth of exploitation excellence and extra features including Audio Commentary by cult film journalist David Hayes, Vintage theater product ads Cult film aficionado’s this might just be your holy grail…but don’t miss out, this is a special limited issue of only 1000 DVDs. Halloween: Anchor Bay Do you really need me to tell you what HALLOWEEN is about? And, seriously, do you really need another re-release from the crew at Anchor Bay? Masters of Horror: Valerie on the Stairs: Anchor Bay It is called Highberger House, a place for unpublished writers to live and work without distractions while they continue to pile up rejection letters. But this building is haunted by more than just the specter of failed authors: There is the ghost of a beautiful woman in the hallways who cries out in fear and desire. And there is a beast in the walls that owns her body and soul, and now fiends for the blood of his creators. Masters of Horror: We All Scream For Ice Cream: Anchor Bay William Forsythe of THE DEVIL’S REJECTS stars as Buster The Clown, a mentally challenged man who sells ice cream his Cheery Tyme truck until a cruel prank by a bunch of neighborhood boys goes horrifically wrong. A generation later they’re all grown men with families, but the crime of their past may now be trolling for their children: Buster and his truck have returned for sweet revenge, and every frozen treat will bring its own taste of Hell. Savage Harvest 2: October Blood: Elite Tyge Murdock, a successful director of low-budget horror films, has been chasing monsters his whole life. When an actor is accidentally killed on the set of his latest production, Tyge returns to his hometown to reassess his life. But all new nightmares await him there... The crew at Wicked Pixel cinema bring a sequel (of sorts) to there 1994 DIY flick SAVAGE HARVEST. The Severed Head Network: Elite This compilation contains short films from America's most controversial cult filmmakers, Including: FAITH IN NOTHING is a fever-dream of eroticism and haunting beauty. VOMIRE is a sucker-punch of expressionistic imagery about angels, sex, and meat. SATISFACTION explores the intense relationship between an abused woman and her one-night-stand. It’s more, more, gore, gore from the Wicked Pixel gang. Eight short film to get your juices…err….flowing. Splatter Farm: Camp Motion Pictures Teenage twins Alan and Joseph are sent to spend time at their aunt's farm. Little do they know that Aunt Lacy has an unhealthy obsession with her deceased husband, whose body she keeps in her home, and her handyman is a serial killer who dismembers his victims and stores their body parts in the barn. Another Shot-on-video DIY epic from the fine folks at Camp Motion Pictures. This 1987 flick is from John Polonia who is helming SPLATTER BEACH the upcoming Misty Mundae film. It’s nice to see that after 20-years, John can still work the word “Splatter” into his film tiles. Vacancy: Sony Pictures When David and Amy Fox's car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, they are forced to spend the night at the only motel around, with only the TV to entertain them... until they discover that the low-budget slasher videos they find in their room were all filmed in the very room they're sitting in. It’s like SAW meets PSYCHO meets ON THE LOT, or something...

FROM BEYOND: UNRATED DIRECTOR'S CUT and THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD: COLLECTOR’S EDITION Two Gory Horror Masterpieces Arrive On DVD September 11 From MGM Home Entertainment. Los Angeles, CA - Two iconic splatter classics that were pioneers in the horror genre make their way to DVD when From Beyond Unrated and The Return Of The Living Dead Collector’s Edition arrive on September 11 from MGM Home Entertainment. Just in time for Halloween, these 80s cult classics represent some of the most dark and original content created and started a new trend in black comedy. Based on the short story of the same name by legendary writer H.P. Lovecraft, comes a science-fiction experiment gone horribly wrong in From Beyond. Starring horror legend Jeffrey Combs (Re-Animator, The Frighteners) and shot by cult director Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator, Dolls), From Beyond Unrated is available for the first time on DVD and includes all new featurettes, a photo-montage and the original Director’s Unrated Cut. From Beyond Unrated Director's Cut specs - H.P. Lovecraft’s classic tale of suspense became “a grisly amalgam of sex, shock and satire” (Newsweek) in the hands of the creators of Re-animator. And now, armed with shocking never-before-seen footage and special features and on DVD for the first time, this “bloody good entertainment” (Time) has evolved into one of the most gruesomely riveting film experiences of all time! The Resonator, a powerful machine that can control the sixth sense, has killed its creator and sent his associate into an insane asylum. But when a beautiful psychiatrist becomes determined to continue the experiment, she unwittingly opens the door to a hostile parallel universe…and to the deviant behavior within the human psyche. With its victims becoming creatures who feed on – and become aroused by – human brains, the Resonator is the ultimate man-made monster. And now something’s gone horribly wrong and no one can turn it off! From Beyond - Special Features: • "The Director’s Perspective" featurette • "The Editing Room: Lost and Found" featurette • Interview With Composer • Photo Montage • Storyboard To Film Comparisons w/introduction • Deleted Scenes: o Appearance of Dr. Pretorus o Death of Bubba o Hospital Escape o Katherine Frees Herself Writer/director Dan O’Bannon (Alien, Lifeforce) puts a hilarious spin on the zombie movie with The Return Of The Living Dead. Considered one of the most bizarre yet incredibly funny horror films in its time, The Return Of The Living Dead helped launch the career of scream queen Linnea Quigley (Sorority Babes In The Slime Ball Bowl-O-Rama, Vice Academy) and is a true punk rock zombie comedy. The Collector’s Edition DVD comes in collectible glow in the dark packaging and features audio commentary from cast, crew and the undead, behind-the-scenes featurettes, an 80s horror film retrospective hosted by the mistress of the night herself, Elvira and of course, zombie subtitles. The Return Of The Living Dead: Collector's Edition specs - Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the cemetery, those brain-eating zombies are back and hungry for more tasty mortals. A fiendish mix of outrageous humor and heart-stopping terror, The Return of the Living Dead is a veritable smorgasbord of fun (LA Herald-Examiner) filled with skin-crawling jolts, eye-popping visuals and relentless surprise! On his first day on the job at an army surplus store, poor Freddy unwittingly releases nerve gas from a secret U.S. military canister, unleashing an unbelievable terror. The gas re-animates a corps of corpses, who arise from their graves with a ravenous hunger for human brains! And luckily for those carnivorous cadavers, there is a group of partying teens nearby, just waiting to be eaten! The Return Of The Living Dead - Special Features • Cast, crew and undead commentary • "Remembering The Dead: Cast Recollections" featurette • "From The Underground: The Rise of Horror in the 80s" featurette • Zombie subtitle stream. Both From Beyond Unrated and The Return Of The Living Dead Collector’s Edition are available for the suggested retail price of $19.98 U.S. / $25.98 Canada. Prebook is August 15, 2007.

Going by the critics...they are supposed to be damn good. Night Watch was pretty decent...so the sequel should be, too.
Prom Night - October 2nd, 2007. (Retail - $6.99) {Echo Bridge Home Entertainment will release a new widescreen edition of the Jamie Lee Curtis slasher. No word yet if it'll be a proper anamorphic transfer this go-around, but one can always hope. Now, granted Prom Night isn't the best of the era, but any DVD that RETAILS for less than the cost of a damn McDonald's Angus Third Combo can't be worth much.}
