Independent U.S. distributors Blue Underground have confirmed that they planning to bring to Blu-ray cult Italian director Lucio Fulci's film Manhattan Baby (1982), starring Christopher Connelly, Laura Lenzi, and Brigitta Boccoli. The release is expected to arrive on the market later this year.
The upcoming release will be sourced from a brand new 2K scan of the original camera negative.
Synopsis: A young girl on vacation in Egypt is given a mysterious charm, causing her archeologist father to be struck blind inside an unexplored pyramid tomb. But when the family returns home to Manhattan, a plague of supernatural evil and sudden violence follows. Can this ancient curse be stopped before it is unleashed on the streets of New York City?
Italian shock master Lucio Fulci combines elements of The Exorcist, The Awakening, Poltergeist, and more in this bizarre horror thriller. Also known as Eye Of The Evil Dead and The Possessed, Manhattan Baby is notable as one of Fulci's final films to be released in America.
