Special Features:
The Haunting of Julia 4K Blu-ray
Description: Magnus and Julia Lofting (Keir Dullea, Black Christmas, and Mia Farrow, Rosemary's Baby) suffer a tremendous shock one morning when their daughter Kate (Sophie Ward, The Hunger) begins choking. Unsure what to do, Julia attempts a tracheotomy, inadvertently causing Kate's death. The tragedy sends Julia to a hospital to recover, but when Magnus asks that she come home, she prefers to buy a new house in London to live alone. Magnus begins pondering Julia's fragile sanity, while Julia becomes convinced that her house is haunted by the spirit of a little girl. A supernatural fable based on the novel Julia by Peter Straub, The Haunting Of Julia is brimming with haunting imagery and chilly atmosphere. Contains a reversible art wrap featuring the original theatrical poster artwork for the film under the title FULL CIRCLE.
STREET DATE: APRIL 18.
Endangered Species
Description: The Colorado prairie has become a graveyard. Mutilated cattle, their organs surgically removed, litter the high country. Is this the gruesome work of a Satanic cult? Of extraterrestrials? Of conspirators who arrive and leave in mysterious black helicopters? The locals are terrified – and it falls to their new sheriff (JoBeth Williams, Poltergeist) and a troubled cop (Robert Urich, Spenser: For Hire) to unravel an eerie skein of deception and danger to discover the stunning truth. This paranoia-fueled thriller from writer/director Alan Rudolph (Welcome To L.A., Afterglow) boasts a stellar supporting cast and spectacular, spooky cinematography that pulls viewers deep inside the mystery. And here's the scariest thing of all: Endangered Species took its inspiration from real-life events.
STREET DATE: APRIL 18.
Bless the Child
Description: Kim Basinger leads an impressive cast in Bless The Child – a riveting supernatural thriller filled with spine-tingling chills and white-knuckle suspense.
Basinger stars as Maggie O'Connor, a single woman whose life revolves around her career – until the surprise appearance of her sister Jenna (Angela Bettis) and Jenna's newborn baby, Cody. When Jenna suddenly disappears, Maggie is left to raise Cody (Holliston Coleman) by herself. But years later, when Jenna returns with a mysterious cult leader (Rufus Sewell), Maggie discovers that the child possesses extraordinary powers ... powers that the forces of evil have waited centuries to control. Also starring Jimmy Smits, Christina Ricci, and Ian Holm, Bless The Child will thrill you from the cradle to the grave.
STREET DATE: APRIL 11.
Envy
Description: Tim (Ben Stiller) and his best friend Nick (Jack Black) always share and share alike — until Tim turns down a chance to invest in Nick's latest crazy invention. Now Nick is raking in millions while his buddy is green with Envy. Enter a cagey and conniving vagabond (Christopher Walken) who's got a plan to turn the tables and steer a little profit for himself. Rachel Weisz and Amy Poehler also star in this hilariously dark comedy from acclaimed director Barry Levinson (Tin Men; Good Morning, Vietnam; Rain Man).
STREET DATE: APRIL 4.
New Gods: Yang Jian
Description: Enter the New Gods universe where Chinese mythology is reimagined in a wildly original, steampunk-inspired world. Light Chaser Animation (White Snake, New Gods: Nezha Reborn) presents a timeless, high-flying adventure featuring one of the most legendary mythic figures.
Thirteen years after Yang Jian imprisoned his sister, the once-powerful hero also known as Erlang Shen now scrapes by as a poor bounty hunter. When a mysterious woman hires him, Yang Jian soon finds himself chasing down a familiar figure. He must stop Chenxiang, his long-lost nephew, who searches for a powerful, but dangerous artifact. As Yang Jian confronts his past, he must face treacherous vigilantes seeking to bring catastrophic destruction.
