Scream Factory Announces Two Wes Craven Classics And An Italian Double Feature
Scream Factory has announced three upcoming Blu-Rays that will appeal to the ultimate in horror collectors! Coming this August we’ll be seeing two Wes Craven classics: The People Under The Stairs and The Serpent And The Rainbow. We’ll also be seeing an Italian double feature, which includes Metamorphosis and Beyond Darkness. Pre-order links will go up next month for all three titles.
I remember seeing The Serpent and the Rainbow years ago but honestly don’t recall whether or not I liked it. Wasn’t there some kind of spirit animal face off at some point? Readers, if you think I need to revisit the film, let me know!
Our “Summer of Fear Part 2” line-up continues to increase with our plans to release Wes Craven’s fascinating and weird (in the best way possible) cult favorite THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS in an all-new Collector’s Edition release!
Our “Summer of Fear Part 2” line-up increases further with news that we will be releasing Wes Craven’s terrifying 1988 voodoo chiller THE SERPENT AND THE RAINBOW in an all-new Collector’s Edition release!
Our “Summer of Fear Part 2” lineup continues to roll out with more retro Italian-made horror films both coming to blu-ray for the first time! 1990’s “mad science” film METAMORPHOSIS will be doubled-billed with the 1990 haunted house-themed BEYOND DARKNESS (and from the Director of Troll 2!) for a planned late August release.
One of my personal favorite horror movies of all time, 1987’s gateway horror classic The Gate is opening back up on May 14 with a brand new Blu-ray SteelBook release from Lionsgate!
The new release will feature fresh SteelBook artwork from Vance Kelly, seen below.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
