Dead Mountaineer's Hotel 4K Blu-ray

Deaf Crocodile has detailed its upcoming combo pack releases of Grigori Kromanov's Dead Mountaineer's Hotel (1979). The two releases are scheduled to arrive on the market on March 31.

Description: Police Inspector Glebsky is called to the remote "Dead Mountaineer's Hotel" – a false alarm, as it soon turns out. Glebsky decides to spend the night at the hotel anyway since there is no way to go back after a massive avalanche cuts off the hotel from the outside world, and Olaf, one of the other peculiar hotel guests, is found dead. Soon after, Glebsky's investigation pulls him into a strange place dominated by supernational forces.
