The MVD Rewind Collection has detailed its upcoming 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray releases of Wes Craven's
Swamp Thing (1982), starring Adrienne Barbeau, Louis Jourdan, Ray Wise, David Hess, and Nicholas Worth. The two releases are scheduled to arrive on the market on July 25.
The label has also announced that it is launching a new line, 4K LaserVision Collection, which will have its own line look, design, and number sequence.
Description: On the verge of a breakthrough in his quest to wipe out world hunger, altruistic botanist Dr. Alec Holland (Ray Wise) is placed under the protection of special government agent Alice Cable (Adrienne Barbeau). Mad outlaw scientist Anton Arcane (Louis Jourdan) wants to steal Holland's research for his own nefarious ends, but an unforeseen accident during the heist turns Holland into the Swamp Thing, an enormous plant-like creature that fights back against Arcane's henchmen to save Cable.
