Underwater Kristen Stewart

It may not have been a box office hit but William Eubank‘s Underwater was at least embraced by many horror fans who saw it in theaters, yours truly included. I’ve got a feeling the deep sea creature feature will be winning over even more fans once it arrives on home video, and today we’ve learned that the wait for the digital and physical release is almost over.

Underwater will be hitting Digital and Blu-ray on April 14, 2020.

Special Features include:

  • Alternate Ending With Optional Commentary (Digital Only)
  • Deleted Scene With Optional Commentary: “Rock Garden”
  • Extended Scenes With Optional Commentary: “Crew Suit Up,” “Gantry Exit,” “Baby Clinger,” “Midway Station,” “Ocean Floor Walk” and “Smith Departure”
  • Featurettes: “Real Bunny Montage,” “Making Underwater: Design, Production, Creature & Visual Effects”
  • Feature Audio Commentary by William Eubank, Jared Purrington and Phil Gawthorne

‘Hollywood Dreams & Nightmares: The Robert Englund Story’ Slashes into VHS from Lunchmeat!

ollywood Dreams & Nightmares: The Robert Englund Story

The SCREAMBOX Original documentary Hollywood Dreams & Nightmares: The Robert Englund Story is now streaming on SCREAMBOX, and it’s next coming to VHS!

A limited edition of only 50 copies worldwide, the VHS copies of the Englund documentary will go up for grabs on Saturday, April 27 at 12pm EST on Lunchmeat’s official website.

Josh Schafer of Lunchmeat explains, “With so many of Englund’s works being seen and familiarized on videotape, it only felt right to offer fans and collectors the opportunity to experience this fantastic doc on VHS. We all know the Freddy movies just feel different on videocassette, and we wanted to bring that feel to this film for those who want it.”

“Since first donning a tattered fedora and a glove of eviscerating blades in 1984, Robert Englund has become a beloved horror icon. His portrayal of Freddy Krueger is without doubt a moment as visceral to the horror genre as Chaney’s werewolf or Karloff’s groundbreaking realization of Frankenstein’s monster. However, few realize the depths of Englund’s true power as a character actor away from the latex mask and iconic red and green sweater.

“A classically trained actor and director, Robert Englund has become one of the most revolutionary horror icons of our generation.. This unique and intimate portrait captures the man behind the glove and features interviews with Englund and his wife Nancy, Lin Shaye, Eli Roth, Tony Todd, Heather Langenkamp, and more.

“This is the quintessential documentary on the man who didn’t just bring Freddy Krueger to horrific and historic life on-screen and beyond, but has created a fantastic career as an elite actor and entertainer.”

Selling for $30, the VHS is presented in native widescreen format & duplicated in NTSC, housed in full-color slipcase and pressed on black videocassettes with silver foil face and side labels.

The VHS release is presented in partnership with Cineverse, Bloody Disgusting, and Screambox, in association with Dead Mouse Productions and Cult Screenings U.K.
