Five years after changing the game with Friday the 13th, Sean Cunningham directed The New Kids, an ’80s gem finally being released onto Blu-ray this year by Mill Creek.

Paying homage to its ’80s arrival, the Blu-ray will feature retro VHS packaging!

In The New Kids:

“Abby McWilliams’ nightmare begins when she attracts the unwanted attention of teenage psychopath Eddie Dutra. Turned down for a date, Eddie destroys Abby’s home, vandalizes her uncle’s car and nearly stomps her brother to death. But it’s only when he kidnaps Abby from the school dance, that Eddie shows his true feelings. Fueled by cocaine and armed with a shotgun, Eddie’s lust turns to uncontrollable rage, as he takes Abby on a date from hell, in this terror-packed thrill-ride from the director of Friday the 13th.”

James Spader, Lori Loughlin, Shannon Presby and Eric Stoltz star in the film.

Blumhouse and Lionsgate’s horror movie Imaginary is now available on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital from Lionsgate, in the wake of the film scaring up $39 million at the box office.

To whet your appetite for the home video release, Lionsgate has provided Bloody Disgusting with an exclusive clip from the bonus features package, which takes you into the Never-Ever, a land of pure imagination where monsters roam free. This is a horror movie, after all.

“The Never-Ever set was a really fun set to conceive with [director Jeff Wadlow],” production designer Meghan Rogers recalls. “We really had to kind of think outside the box.”

The team built a real practical set and augmented it with visual effects to “make it seem a little bit more fantastical.” See how the Never-Ever came to life in the exclusive clip below.

DeWanda Wise (Jurassic World Dominion) stars in Imaginary

“Jessica moves back into her childhood home with her family. Her youngest stepdaughter Alice develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey she finds in the basement. Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and become increasingly sinister. As Alice’s behavior becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes only to realize Chauncey is much more than the stuffed toy bear she believed him to be.”

The film also stars Tom Payne, Taegen BurnsPyper BraunVeronica Falcon, and Betty Buckley. The screenplay is by Jeff Wadlow & Greg Erb & Jason Oremland.

Blumhouse’s Jason Blum will produce, with Jeff Wadlow (Cry Wolf, Kick-Ass 2, Truth or Dare, Fantasy Island, The Curse of Bridge Hollow) producing and directing.
