THE WORLDWIDE UHD PREMIERE
2-DISC COLLECTION INCLUDES 3+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES
The third feature by director Michele Soavi - his second collaboration with producer/co-writer Dario Argento - has been called "deranged" (We Are Cult), "disturbing" (Blu-ray.com) and "long overdue for reevaluation" (Bloody Disgusting). Now it can be experienced like never before: As a global satanic cabal grows in ferocity, an unwitting young schoolteacher (Kelly Curtis - sister of Jamie Lee - in her sole genre role) is chosen to deliver the ultimate evil. Herbert Lom (COUNT DRACULA), Mariangela Giordano (BURIAL GROUND) and Giovanni Lombardo Radice (THE HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK) co-star in "a nightmarish fever dream from a visionary filmmaker" (Good Efficient Butchery), scanned in 4K from the original negative with over 3 hours of Special Features - including new interviews with Soavi and Argento - for the first time ever.

Press Quotes
It's long overdue for re-evaluation... Soavi's third feature is offbeat Italian horror that will linger in your mind for days after you watch it.
—Bloody Disgusting
★★★★ It feels at times like an Italian HALLOWEEN.
—Horror DNA
It unfolds like a hazy nightmare... Soavi riffs on everything from '80s splatter to ROSEMARY'S BABY to raise Hell in signature Italian manner.
—Oh, The Horror!
Impressive and imaginitive... Soavi's third film comes packed with plenty of hallucinatory, Jodorowsky-esque charms.
—Mondo Digital
Soavi's films constitute the last gasp of greatness from the golden age of Italian horror.
—Good Efficient Butchery
Michele Soavi's cult-conspiracy masterpiece... Its depth makes it so there's something new to realize every time you re-watch it.
—At The Mansion Of Madness
Undeniably stylish... The imagery is imaginative and disturbing. It's surprising that Kelly Curtis didn't join Jamie Lee in the Scream Queens category.
—Blu-ray.com
A fascinating work of horror art... Had Soavi continued to make horror films, he would likely be considered on par with Argento, Fulci and Bava as one of the greats.
—Rock! Shock! Pop!
It's ROSEMARY'S BABY on LSD... Jam-packed with moments that are memorably deranged, this is one of the weirdest films you'll ever see.
—We Are Cult
