‘Prom Night’ DVD/Blu-ray Sales Art
Today DVD Active posted the sales sheet for Sony Home Entertainment’s Prom Night DVD release, which features the DVD cover art for all three releases. The unrated edition is only a minute longer, so big whoop. As well as a 2.40:1 anamorphic widescreen presentation and English Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround track, the discs will include commentary with Director Nelson McCormick, Brittany Snow and Johnathon Schaech, deleted scenes with optional commentary, an alternate ending, 4 featurettes (A Night to Remember: The Making of Prom Night, Profile of a Killer, Gothic Spaces: Creating the Pacific Grand Hotel, Prom Night Photo Album: Real Prom Stories from the Cast), and a gag reel. A Blu-ray release will also be available for $38.96 with an additional storyboard track.
Are you ready to go back?
After a record-breaking box office run and an extended cut re-release, A24 and director Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is heading home to Digital.
Backrooms will be available to rent or buy this Tuesday, July 14.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars in Backrooms as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire, who discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Will Soodik wrote the screenplay.
I wrote in my review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
