Scream Factory announced today that it will add three new titles to its Blu-ray catalog: David Schmoeller's The Seduction (1982), Roy Del Ruth's The Alligator People (1959), and Alberto De Martino's The Chosen (1977).
Please note that supplemental features to be included on these upcoming releases have not yet been finalized. They will be announced as the street date for each release approaches.
The Seduction
Synopsis: L.A. anchorwoman Jamie Douglas (Fairchild) has it all: a glamorous career on a top-rated news show, a luxurious house in the hills, and a devoted young fan named Derek (Stevens). But when Jamie rebuffs his romantic advances, Derek becomes a stalker who plays out an increasingly psychotic courtship with the frightened newswoman. Soon he is threatening every part of her life, secretly watching even her most intimate moments. Her tough-talking lover (Michael Sarrazin) can't console her. A by-the-book cop (Vince Edwards) can't protect her. But Jamie is far from helpless ... and ready to fight back with all the weapons at her command. When the smoke clears ... who will survive THE SEDUCTION?
STREET DATE: MAY 21.
The Chosen
Synopsis: Kirk Douglas (The Fury) stars as industrialist Robert Caine, who with his son Angel (Simon Ward) is finally about to realize his biggest dream: a massive nuclear power plant in the Holy Land. But soon, Caine's dream becomes a horrific nightmare as person after person associated with the project meets a violent, gruesome death. When clues to this inexplicable turn of events point to the devil, Caine comes to the terrible realization that he might be linked to the Antichrist ... perhaps even through his unborn child.
Also known as Holocaust 2000 and Rain Of Fire (and previously released in the US on DVD under the name), this riveting thriller in the vein of The Omen "is probably the best made and best budgeted of the Italian occult films of the 1970s" (The Science Fiction, Horror and Fantasy Film Review) and was directed by cult filmmaker Alberto De Martino (The Antichrist, Blood Link and Strange Shadows In An Empty Room).
The release will feature the longer, 102 international cut of the film. The reverse wrap will feature artwork for Holocaust 2000.
STREET DATE: MAY 14.
The Alligator People
Synopsis: A young wife (Beverly Garland, Swamp Women, It Conquered the World) is abandoned by her husband (Lon Chaney Jr., The Wolf Man, Abbott And Costello Meet Frankenstein) on their wedding day. Distraught, she tracks him down to his ancestral home in the bayous of Louisiana, where, amid the swamps and the deadly undergrowth, she discovers a terrible secret. Her husband was saved from death by an experimental medical procedure involving serum derived from alligators ... and now he's developing horrifying side effects. She'll face any danger to help him, but soon discovers her love may not be enough.
STREET DATE: MAY 28.
