British label 88 Films has detailed three upcoming Blu-ray releases: Bewitched (1981), Watch Me When I Kill (1977), and The House on Sorority Row (1983).
The House on Sorority Row
Synopsis: Synopsis: Flirtatious young sorority sisters who are days away from graduation set out to throw one last decadent celebration. Unbeknownst to them, the strict matron of their house hides a horrendous secret thought long buried. A gruesome accident is witnessed by a hideous fiend, hidden within the once nurturing dwelling, which triggers a rampage of death and destruction. Before the end, the peril faced by this sisterhood will push them to the brink of annihilation. And rivers of blood will drown all who enter...The House on Sorority Row. Starring Harley Jane Kozak, Kate McNeil, Eileen Davidson, Mark Rosman, and Michael Kuhn.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Watch Me When I Kill
Synopsis: Antonio Bido, the man who won understandable cult acclaim with his stylish stalker-thriller The Bloodstained Shadow (1978), helmed one of the defining giallo shockers in 1977's nightmarish Watch Me When I Kill. For fans of yellow-peril, golden age, Italian black-gloved killer mayhem, it does not get any better than this suspenseful murder-mystery which follows an animalistic, knife-happy maniac as he cuts and drowns his victims to prohibit a historic secret emerging. Exactly why the dead bodies are piling up confuses the authorities - but the reasoning behind this sudden slash 'em up activity proves both jarring and jaggedly horrible. And look out for an appearance from legendary Italian genre veteran Paolo Malco (The House by the Cemetery) and a sizzling soundtrack from art prog-rockers Trans-Europe Express. Starring Franco Citti, Fernando Cerulli, Giuseppe Addobbati, Gianfranco Bullo, Jill Pratt, and Corrado Pani. Cinematography by Mario Vulpiani (Marco Ferreri's La Grande Bouffe, Dillinger Is Dead).
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Bewitched
Synopsis: n 1972 the Shaw Brothers unleashed one of their most colourful and chaotic horror movies in THE BRIDE FROM HELL. Directed by Chou Hsu-Chiang, who had earlier had a spooky success with another classic Hong Kong creeper THE ENCHANTING GHOST (1970), this slow-burning suspenser has a luckless lad hitched to the woman of his dreams... who just happens to have a few surprising links to the Netherworld. What follows is a tale of possession, demons, magic and mysticism - in this hugely influential precursor to such later Far Eastern frighteners as SPOOKY ENCOUNTERS and THE BRIDE WITH WHITE HAIR. Now finally available in an edition that should appease all Hong Kong horror buffs, THE BRIDE FROM HELL is a heady marriage of frights and fantasy femmes. Prepare to be seduced by this beautiful Blu-ray restoration of an all time shock sensation!
