Synapse Films, with sales and distribution support provided by MVD Entertainment Group, has selected Oct. 19 as the street date for the double-disc special edition 4K Ultra HD launch of director Lamberto Bava's 1985 (1986 domestic) horror tale, Demons, and his 1986 (’87 domestic) follow-up, Demons 2.
Whether it is trapped in a movie theatre or terrorized in a high-rise apartment building, Lamberto Bava found the magic formula for terror in the mid-1980s with these two back-to-back classics … and now they have their 4K Ultra HD debuts as one package.
It is a genre fan delight and Synapse Films knows exactly what is necessary to make this work … loads and loads and loads of bonus features, so let us get right to it.
For Demons, there will be the full-length original cut, presented in both English and Italian, and the shorter U.S. release with alternate English dubbed dialog. There is also a newly-minted commentary track featuring film critics and the hosts of Hell’s Belles, Kat Ellinger and Heather Drain, plus Synapse is also including the vintage commentary track with filmmaker Lamberto Bava, F/X artists Sergio Stivaletti, actress Geretta Geretta (aka: Geretta Giancarlo) and composer Claudio Simonetti.
