We told you earlier this year that Cinespectral Films was bringing the 1988 movie Elvira: Mistress of the Dark to Blu-ray for the very first time, with the limited edition 3-disc Mediabook set originally set for release in April. Of course, it never came out. And now we’ve got a bummer of an update.
We’ve learned this week that Cinespectral Films is going under, which means the bonus features-packed Blu-ray release of Elvira: Mistress of the Dark is (for now) dying with it.
The soon-to-be defunct company made the announcement on Facebook…
“Unfortunately we have to confirm that the release of ELVIRA on Blu-ray for now is being put on hold. We were forced to face another delay which would have put the release into mid September. Which obviously would have been outside of the purchase protection period for all customers of the first two weeks of pre-order. The general management decided that ALL customers will get their money refunded within the next 7 business days. Once that will be completed we will cease all activities.”
They added, “there is a good chance right now that another German company will release the set in the way it was planned.”
We’ll update you if we hear any further information.
