Both 1980’s Satan’s Slave and 2017’s remake Satan’s Slaves are currently streaming on Shudder, and we’ve learned today that the latter film is soon headed to DVD & Blu-ray.

RLJE Films has picked up select rights to Satan’s Slaves from Shudder, and they’ll be releasing the Indonesian horror film on August 4, 2020 on both DVD and Blu-ray.

In Satan’s Slaves, written and directed by Joko Anwar (“Halfworlds”), “After Rini’s mother dies from a mysterious illness, her ghost begins to appear throughout the house. Terrorizing the family, she lurks the hallways and calls out to them at night. To protect her little brothers, Rini traces back the roots of the evil and discovers the horrifying truth. Their mother has made a deal with the devil, and she has not returned to visit…she wants to take one of them with her.”

The horror film stars Tara Basro (A Copy of my Mind), Bront Palarae (Belukar), Dimas Aditya (Dear Love), Endy Arfian (Malik & Elsa) and newcomer Nasar Anuz.
