FEED YOUR FEAR! Halloween Blu-ray from Fox!

Psychopaths, Cannibals And Killer Dolls Come To Life Like Never Before As The Latest Selection Of Bloodcurdling Classics Arrive On Blu-ray Disc September 15 From Twentieth Century Fox And MGM Home Entertainment


LOS ANGELES, CA – This Halloween… make a play date with Chucky, join a book club with Annie, have an old friend for dinner with Hannibal, or go camping with Three-Finger. Twentieth Century Fox and MGM Home Entertainment unearth a selection of frightening film favorites in haunting high-definition when CHILD’S PLAY, MISERY, HANNIBAL LECTER ANTHOLOGY, WRONG TURN and WRONG TURN 2 arrive on Blu-ray Disc (BD) September 15.

First, Chucky goes high-definition when the soul of a serial killer who isn’t ready to die uses his voodoo skills to inhabit an innocent looking doll in CHILD’S PLAY. From the Director of Fright Night, this “clever, playful” (The New York Times) thriller with “excellent special effects” (Leonard Maltin) and heart-pounding suspense takes playtime to a new level of terror on stunning BD + DVD Combo! The high-def horrors continue in the heart stopping, Academy Award®-winning, MISERY, also on BD + DVD Combo. Adapted from a Stephen King story by Oscar®-winning screenwriter William Goldman (All the President’s Men) and directed by Rob Reiner (A Few Good Men), this chiller follows maniacal fan, Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates; Titanic), as she “rescues” famed novelist Paul Sheldon (James Caan; The Godfather) from a car accident and holds him hostage. What follows is an epic physiological thriller that portrays “a Hitchcockian kind of cat-and-mouse” (The New York Times) game played between two cunning minds.

Witness the birth of evil in spine tingling clarity, as the eerie and intense HANNIBAL LECTER ANTHOLOGY captures MANHUNTER, THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS and HANNIBAL together on stunning Blu-ray Disc for the first time. MANHUNTER, the intense thriller from writer-director Michael Mann (Heat, Public Enemies), first introduced the world to the cunning, unforgettable serial killer, Dr. Hannibal Lecter. The psychological horror continues in THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS with Oscar® winner Anthony Hopkins (The Elephant Man, Nixon) as the sophisticated murderer, alongside Oscar® winner Jodie Foster (Maverick, Contact) as FBI agent Clarice Starling, who liaisons with the killer in order to solve a murder case. Lastly, Hopkins is “perverse perfection” (Rolling Stone) in his reprisal of the role of Dr. Lecter in HANNIBAL, as he comes out of hiding to draw FBI agent Clarice Starling (Julianne Moore; Boogie Nights) into a high-stakes battle that will test her strength, cunning and loyalty.

Finally, the cannibalistic carnage continues as the WRONG TURN and WRONG TURN 2: DEAD END make their graphic Blu-ray Disc debut. The indescribable nightmare depicts the fight for survival against a family of hideously deformed inbred cannibals who plan to ruthlessly butcher everyone.
