Original ‘Doctor Strange’ from 1978 Brings Sorcery to Shout Factory Blu-ray
The original film adaptation of Marvel’s Doctor Strange came along in 1978, believe it or not, a made-for-TV movie that was actually a pilot episode for a proposed television series.
While we wait for Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Shout! Factory has just released Doctor Strange 1978 on Blu-ray, a website exclusive release!
“Enter a world filled with sorcerers, powerful supernatural forces and bizarre enchantments as the famed Marvel Comics superhero Dr. Strange comes to life to battle the forces of evil.”
Special Features include:
- NEW High-Definition Transfer And Restoration From The Original Film Elements
- NEW Audio Commentary By Pop Culture Historian Russell Dyball And The Panel Jumper Host Cole Hornaday
“A modern hospital may seem worlds apart from the days of ancient sorcerers. But for psychiatrist Stephen Strange (Peter Hooten) and his patient Clea Lake (Eddie Benton), this is where those worlds collide … and the nightmare begins! Nothing Stephen Strange learned in medical school could prepare him for an attack by an evil sorceress from the “fourth dimension,” Morgan le Fay (Jessica Walter), a villainess who plans an invasion of unimaginable evil on Earth. Chosen by an ancient guardian of the spirit world to learn the mystic arts to defeat Morgan and safeguard the Earth, Stephen Strange must take the place of the Earth’s last sorcerer. Come along for a fantastic adventure into the “fourth dimension” with … Dr. Strange!”

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
