Years after a violent and terrifying event from her childhood, Beth (Angela O'Neill, Vicious Lips) embarks on a new life in college. Upon joining a sorority, she gets a strange feeling from the house ... it seems eerily familiar. Plagued by nightmares of a knife-wielding killer, Beth tries to settle in and be one of the girls. But little does she know that her past is coming back to haunt her and her new friends in this '80s slasher classic.
STREET DATE: APRIL 8.
The Hunt 4K Blu-ray

But the elites' master plan is about to be derailed because one of The Hunted, Crystal (Betty Gilpin, Glow), knows The Hunters' game better than they do. She turns the tables on the killers, picking them off one by one as she makes her way toward the mysterious woman (two-time Oscar® winner Hilary Swank) at the center of it all.
STREET DATE: APRIL 22.
Renfield Collector's Edition 4K Blu-ray
Description: In this modern monster tale of Dracula's loyal servant, Nicholas Hoult (Mad Max: Fury Road, X-Men franchise) stars as Renfield, the tortured aide to history's most narcissistic boss, Dracula (Oscar® winner Nicolas Cage). Renfield is forced to procure his master's prey and do his every bidding, no matter how debased. But now, after centuries of servitude, Renfield is ready to see if there's a life outside the shadow of The Prince of Darkness. If only he can figure out how to end his codependency.
