Grindhouse Releasing has set a July 12 street date for the new deluxe 3-disc Blu-ray edition of Lucio Fulci's nightmare classic Cat in the Brain. The movie will be touring theaters all over the U.S. this summer, starting June 2.
Cat in the Brain is a psychological masterpiece in the tradition of such cinematic classics as Psycho, Strait-jacket, Eraserhead and Fellini's 8 1/2. Acclaimed Italian horror maestro Lucio Fulci, director of Zombie and The Beyond, stars in this blood-soaked epic as a director being driven insane by his own movies. Fulci is thrust into an ultra-violent nightmare of death and depravity where murder and madness consume his sanity in a vortex of violence.
Cat in the Brain will be issued in two versions: the standard release, and a special edition for collectors limited to 3,000 copies. The limited version of the Cat in the Brain Blu-ray includes a glow-in-the-dark slipcover and an original portrait of Lucio Fulci created especially for this release. Also, DiabolikDVD is offering a special bundle that includes the Cat in the Brain Blu-ray and the official Lucio Fulci bobblehead from Cult Colletibles. This offer is limited to 500 copies, as these are the last of the numbered Lucio Fulci "Weird Wobbler" bobbleheads.
