Severin Films will release standard 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray editions of Gianfranco Giagni's The Spider Labyrinth (1988), starring Roland Wybenga, William Berger, Stéphane Audran, and Bill Bolender. The two releases are scheduled to arrive on the market on May 7.
Description: For more than three decades, the remarkable debut feature - and sole horror film - by award-winning director Gianfranco Giagni has been one of the most elusive Italian horror titles in home video history...until now: When an American professor is sent to Budapest to complete a mysterious research project, he'll become ensnared in a mind-bending web of sexual provocation, occult carnage and arachnidian havoc.
Roland Wybenga, William Berger (FIVE DOLLS FOR AN AUGUST MOON) and Stéphane Audran (FACELESS) star in this "invaluable contribution to '80s Italian Horror" (Screen Rant) featuring unnerving special effects by Sergio Stivaletti (CEMETERY MAN) and an outstanding score by Franco Piersanti (TERRAFERMA), now scanned in 4K from the original vault negative at Cinecittà and presented in 1080p on Blu-ray with over 4 hours of new Special Features for the first time ever!
