Arrow Video, with domestic sales and distribution expertise
provided by MVD Entertainment Group, has tabbed June 20 as the street date for
a new 4K restoration of iconic filmmaker Dario Argento’s 1970 giallo/horror gem, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage.
Presented in this Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack are both the
original Italian language track (with English subtitles) and the English-dubbed
domestic theatrical release version.
Bonus features for this twisted murder mystery — where even
the first-hand witness (played by Tony Musante) might not have seen what he
thought he saw — includes a newly-prepared commentary track featuring giallo-genre expert, Troy Howarth, the
author of “So Deadly, So Perverse: 50 Years of Italian Giallo Films.”
Other bonus nuggets include a new video session with
writer/director Dario Argento, a newly-minted video session actor Gildo Di
Marco, an analysis of the film by critic Kat Ellinger (editor in chief of Diabolique
Magazine) and the featurette titled “The Power of Perception.”
The Limited Edition slip case packaging also includes a
60-page booklet (illustrated by Matthew Griffin) and featuring analysis by Michael
Mackenzie, Howard Hughes and Jack Seabrook.
