on

Two brand new Blu-rays have been surprise-released by Scream Factory today, and we have to note right off the bat that they’re both limited to just 1,000 copies before they’re gone.

In stock now, Scream Factory heads into the Roger Corman vault with 1988’s Twice Dead and a Double Feature Blu-ray of 1989’s The Terror Within and 1991’s The Terror Within II.

In Twice Dead, “A family moves into a mansion in a crime-ridden urban neighborhood to find that there’s not only a punk street gang roaming the area looking for trouble, but also the ghost of an actor who haunts the mansion! Tom Breznahan, Jill Whitlow, Jonathan Chapin and Todd Bridges star in this haunted house thriller.”

Bonus features include…

  • NEW 2K Scan Of The Best Available Film Elements
  • Audio Commentary With Co-writer/Director Bert Dragin And Actor Tom Bresnahan
  • The Girl Next Door – An Interview With Actress Jill Whitlow
  • Theatrical Trailer

In The Terror Within, “In the aftermath of a chemically induced plague that wipes out most of the world, the only survivors are a small group of scientists trapped in a laboratory 500 feet below the ground in the Mojave Desert. But they are not alone. The Terror Within stars veteran actor George Kennedy, Andrew Stevens and Terri Treas.”

In its sequel, “In a world gone mad, the last human colony struggles to survive underground, beneath a land of nightmarish mutants who seek to destroy them. But when the mutants break inside humanity’s final stronghold, the battle for survival pits the human colonists against their deadly invaders miles below the Earth’s surface. Andrew Stevens returns to the sequel as actor, writer and director. R. Lee Ermey, Burton Gilliam and Stella Stevens co-star.”

Bonus features include…

  • New 2K scan of the first film’s interpositive
