Scream Factory announced today that it is preparing Blu-ray releases of two catalog titles: William Girdler's The Manitou (1978) and James W. Roberson's Superstition (1982). The two releases will be available for purchase on April 16.
Please note that supplemental features to be included on these releases have not yet been finalized, and will be revealed as the street date approaches.
The Manitou
Synopsis: What surgeons thought to be a tumor growing on the neck of patient Karen Tandy (Susan Strasberg) is actually a fetus growing at an abnormally accelerated rate. But when Karen reaches out to former lover and phony psychic Harry Erskine (Tony Curtis), she discovers that she is possessed by the reincarnation of a 400-year-old Native American demon. Now with the help of a modern-day medicine man (Michael Ansara), Erskine must survive this ancient evil's rampage of shocking violence and forever destroy the enraged beast known as The Manitou.
Stella Stevens, Ann Sothern and Burgess Meredith co-star in this infamous shocker produced and directed by William Girdler (Grizzly, Day of the Animals) from the best-selling novel by Graham Masterton.
Superstition
Synopsis: The victims who died were the lucky ones.
Something horrible is happening at the old house on Mill Road. A series of ghastly accidents has occurred near the site where a witch drowned centuries earlier. But when an alcoholic minister and his family move into the cursed residence, an idealistic young priest (James Houghton) and a cynical police detective (Albert Salmi) start their own investigation into the unexplained violence. Has the daughter of Satan returned for a rampage of vengeance? Will the laws of the Church be strong enough to cast out this demon? And if evil has truly found a new home, is the entire neighborhood headed straight to hell?
