Severin Films will introduce a brand new 4K restoration of Jess Franco's Faceless at this year's edition of Texas Frightmare Weekend. The new restoration will be introduced by special guest Brigitte Lahaie.
A Blu-ray release of Faceless is expected to be announced later this year.
Official event description: For his 1987 big-budget EuroSleaze classic inspired by EYES WITHOUT A FACE, director Jess Franco brought together an international all-star cast – including Helmut Berger (THE DAMNED), Brigitte Lahaie (THE FEMALE EXECUTIONER), Christopher Mitchum (SUMMERTIME KILLER), Stéphane Audran (COUP DE TORCHON), Caroline Munro (MANIAC) and Telly Savalas – for a glossily depraved tale of disfigurement, dismemberment, horny brutes, Nazi surgeons, Paris discos, face-ripping, throat-stabbing, eyeball-piercing and what may be Uncle Jess' most rewardingly ambiguous ending ever. Anton Diffring (CIRCUS OF HORRORS) and Florence Guérin (CALIGULA & MESSALINA) co-star – with appearances by Howard Vernon (THE AWFUL DR. ORLOFF) and Lina Romay – in this unapologetically graphic shocker, now scanned for the first time in 4K.
