Severin will issue standard 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray releases of Bruno Mattei's Hell of the Living Dead (1980), starring Margit Evelyn Newton, Franco Garofalo, José Gras, Selan Karay, and Víctor Israel. The two releases are scheduled to arrive on the market on May 27.
Description: What began as the epic global zombie apocalypse screenplay VIRUS by Claudio Fragasso & Rossella Drudi (SHOCKING DARK, ROBOWAR) became – via the inimitable vision of director Bruno Mattei (CRUEL JAWS, RATS: NIGHT OF TERROR) and a fraction of the original budget – this "gloriously ludicrous" (Confluence of Cult), "compulsively watchable" (Classic-Horror), "infamous zombie-chomp spectacular" (Braineater), now in UHD for the first time in America: When a top-secret biomedical project accidentally unleashes a catastrophic plague, a four-man commando team and a female reporter head into the jungle for an "absolutely insane" (B&S About Movies) experience in gratuitous nudity, grisly stock footage and ravenous hordes of flesh-eating zombies. Margie Newton (THE ADVENTURES OF HERCULES), Franco Garofalo (THE OTHER HELL) and a soundtrack 'borrowed' from Goblin star in "a must for all fans of Italian exploitation" (Cinezilla) – also known as VIRUS, NIGHT OF THE ZOMBIES and ZOMBIE CREEPING FLESH – now scanned in 4K from the original camera negative.
