Severin Film will release on 4K Blu-ray Fear the Reapers, a box set gathering Joe D'Amato's cult shockers Anthropophagous (1980) and Absurd (1981). The release is scheduled to arrive on the market later this Summer.
The releases will be sold individually, with an option to purchase the slipcase displayed below.
ABSURD
If you thought our 2018 Blu-ray was "batsh*t insane fun" (McBastard's Mausoleum), get ready to experience splatter maestro Joe D'Amato's "top-notch gruesome" (Morbidly Beautiful) follow-up to ANTHROPOPHAGOUS in 4K for the first time ever in North America.
Borrowing heavily from HALLOWEEN, D'Amato unleashes a gut-spewing boogeyman (screenwriter Luigi Montefiori/George Eastman) into suburban America for an "incredibly vicious and unforgiving" (A Slash Above) saga of doomed nurses, butchered babysitters, bio-chemical clergy and some of the most insane splatter scenes in Italian exploitation history.
Edmund Purdom (JULIUS CAESAR, PIECES) and Annie Belle (HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK) co-star in this "'50s creature feature with '80s gore" (The Spinning Image) – also known as ANTHROPOPHAGOUS 2, ZOMBIE 6, HORRIBLE and MONSTER HUNTER – in both its English and Italian Versions, scanned in 4K from the original camera negative with Special Features that include a new archival interview with D'Amato.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
DISC ONE - 4K BLU-RAY
Tourists take a boat to a remote island, where they find that most of the people have disappeared, and something is stalking them. They find a hidden room in the big mansion on a hill, and an ancient diary, which gives them clues to the source of the terror - the Anthropophagus Beast... Starring George Eastman, Tisa Farrow, Saverio Vallone, Zora Kerova, and Serena Grandi. Special Features and Technical Specs:
