Gorgeous Exterior Art for The Amityville Horror Trilogy:

[Show spoiler]

***EXCLUSIVE KEY ART REVEAL!***

Check out the new blood-red key art for our upcoming Blu-ray set of THE AMITYVILLE HORROR TRILOGY designed by artist James Rheem Davis. Films in the set will include The Amityville Horror, Amityville II: The Possession and Amityville 3D (in 2D and Blu-ray 3D presentation for the first time)

This art will be on the slipcase. Although we can't show you them yet, the plan is to have the original theatrical key art for each of the film on the three separate blu-ray cases that will be inside of the case. We'll share those later.

Look for more details on extras and exact street date later on this Summer.

Masterpieces as well.

There's some great original art that should take up all of the cover space

Agreed - its just such an obvious choice...it sucked that MGM never got it on out their MOD line and I am very much hoping SF will release it because this is the one and possibly last chance of any studio release of it in the USA in a beautiful widescreen 97 minute presentation. Even Jeff himself said its highly requested.
No its not a great film but the monster is cool (played by Kevin Peter Hall) , has Jack Palance and Martin Landau playing Fred Dobbs of all names. The films' plot inspired Predator to some degree. I find it highly entertaining...and it has some gore and gooey pancake monsters...you cant beat that !!
I know for a fact that this would be a top seller. It would easily go into Amazons top 100 list...

from FB, regarding the new Vincent Price set:

With 6 titles in that set we can't do individual cases (as it will not have six separate cases) but we do have a 24-page book planned for that set which will showcase the artwork there.

+1; The Beast Within is a good movie. Hey, with their releases of the Elviria series and MST3K Shout would be a good candidate to go after some of the Joe Bob Briggs Monster-vision, etc footage that would be a great supplement to The Beast Within.

[WildWestWar]

Scream Factory still hasn't officially announced their upcoming release of Dead Shadows.
Maybe this it it?

[benderal]

I asked this in the Shout Factory thread, so I thought I'd ask here. What are the chances of there being a release of Split Second with Rutger Hauer?

[KenHurd]

Scream Factory just announced The Beast Within and Crawlspace for later this year!

[RandyK]

I get excited with Scream announcements even though most of these films i've never heard of. I love horror so much and am always willing to check out new films.

Scream is great!

[PhantasmFan]

Looking forward to both of these

[NoirFan]

The Beast Within is ubersleazy, but the performances are solid and there is a decent amount of atmosphere. Still haven't seen this Crawlspace, but it looks like I will be soon. Hopefully the extras will have some colorful stories about crazy Kinski.

[Frightener22]

Pretty *****in announcements! "The Beast Within" is a hoot and I've actually never had the chance to see "Crawlspace" so that Blu-ray will be a welcome addition to the collection

[CrazyHorse42]

I'm up for both of these. I was thinking about importing the German Crawlspace Blu, but I'll wait for Scream's now.

[sethdlh]

A very cool announcement! I'm all for more insane Kinski on blu!

[BarnDoor]

Crawlspace is very good for the most part, with a great performance by Kinski, though it is let down by a terribly anticlimactic ending. The film really deserved better.

The Beast Within is an underrated one.

[Thomas Veil]

Congrats to those who like them! I'll probably skip both as I can't stand Klaus Kinski and I'm not really into the plots of either one. Both are the type that I would have to take a shower after watching to get the sleeze off me.lol I was hoping for more Shocker, Cat People, Village of the Damned variety.

It's good though they have all sorts of titles for different tastes.

[WesReviews]

Godzilla 1985's rights a mystery? Hmmm. Interesting.

I was under the impression that Anchor Bay had them, but couldn't release that title due to Toho.

[Member-222782]

Love that original BEAST WITHIN art! I hope Scream uses it. Looks like a hardcore slasher flick - very grindhouse-y. I think I saw Crawlspace once on one of those double feature packs but don't remember much about it.

I totally agree. The Beast Within is a fun film, never seen Crawlspace but looking forward to checking it out.
