With Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday, New Line Cinema took over the Friday the 13th franchise. The results are pretty bizarre. The film was released with a new 2K scan in the deluxe box set from Shout! Factory.
Featuring an introduction from film scholar and author Troy Howarth!
Suspiria remains one of the most beautifully shot horror films. An absolute artistic triumph from Dario Argento and one of the best films ever made.
The Dead Zone is a fantastic film by David Cronenberg from the mind of Stephen King. The Blu-ray by Paramount is visually unsatisfying, which is a shame.
