Blue Underground has provided a promotional trailer for the recent 4K restoration of Harry Kümel's film Daughters of Darkness 4K (1971), starring Delphine Seyrig, John Karlen, Danielle Ouimet, Andrea Rau, and Paul Esser. The restoration will be released on 4K Blu-ray in the Fall.
Complete technical specs and supplemental features to be included on the upcoming release have not yet been finalized.
Synopsis: International screen icon Delphine Seyrig (Last Year at Marienbad) stars as Elizabeth Bathory, an ageless Countess with a beautiful young "companion" (Goth goddess Andrea Rau) and a legendary legacy of perversion. But when the two women seduce a troubled newlywed couple (French beauty Danielle Ouimet and John Karlen of Dark Shadows and Cagney & Lacey), they unleash a frenzy of sudden violence and depraved desire that shocked both art house audiences and grindhouse crowds worldwide.
Co-written and directed by Harry Kumel, Daughters of Darkness remains one of the most exquisitely mesmerizing adult horror films ever made. Blue Underground is proud to present the Director's Cut of this classic psychosexual shocker newly remastered in High Definition and packed with Extras, including brand new interviews with Harry Kumel, Danielle Ouimet, and Co-Writer/Co-Producer Pierre Drouot.
