Meanwhile, we also have a new Blu-ray review for you today: Tim has taken a look at Todd Holland’s The Wizard (1989) on the format from Shout! Factory—the disc streets on 3/24. Enjoy!
Speaking of that, Scream Factory has just announced their 4/21 Blu-ray release of Terence Fisher’s The Curse of the Werewolf: Collector’s Edition. The 1961 Hammer Films classic stars Clifford Evans, Oliver Reed, Yvonne Romain, and Catherine Feller.
The 2-disc set will include a new 4K scan from the original interpositive, new audio commentary (with actress Yvonne Romain, special makeup effects artist Mike Hill and composer Leslie Bricusse), a second new audio commentary (with author/film historian Steve Haberman and filmmaker/film historian Constantine Nasr), 2 new featurettes (The Men Who Made Hammer: Roy Ashton and Serial Killer: Benjamin Frankel, Serialism and The Curse of the Werewolf), 3 previously released featurettes (The Making of The Curse of the Werewolf, Lycanthropy: The Beast in All of Us, and Censoring the Werewolf), the theatrical trailer, Trailers from Hell commentary by John Landis, a radio spot, and a still gallery. You can see the artwork on the right.
All right, gotta get back to work on 1917. Stay tuned...!
