Scream Factory has revealed that it is preparing a Blu-ray release of Mark Robson's film
Isle of the Dead (1945), starring Boris Karloff, Ellen Drew, Marc Cramer, Katherine Emery, and Helene Thimig. The release will be available for purchase on August 20.
Synopsis: A small island off the coast of Greece holds a secret so dreadful, that once you step on its shore, you must remain there forever. General Nikolas Pherides (Karloff) is such a visitor. He came to honor the grave of his wife, and discovers that the entire island has been overrun with a plague - a sickness that drives the victims insane. Soon, Pherides succumbs to the illness. When insanity runs rampant, grave robbery, premature burial and vampires are the unspeakable horrors that await those on the Isle of the Dead.
