THE LIVING DEAD AT MANCHESTER MORGUE (2-Disc Special Edition): Blue Underground
The epic zombie shocker returns as you’ve never seen it before!
Two traveling companions, George (Ray Lovelock of AUTOPSY) and Edna (Christine Galbo of THE KILLER MUST KILL AGAIN), come across a small town infested with the “living dead” that are satisfying their cannibalistic hunger on anyone they come across. Discovering that an agricultural machine using radiation waves is at the root of all the havoc, George and Edna fight for survival and their innocence as they are pursued by a relentless detective (Arthur Kennedy of THE ANTICHRIST and FANTASTIC VOYAGE) who is convinced they are responsible for the ghoulish acts of violence plaguing the countryside. All this leads to a gruesome showdown at the Manchester Morgue – an ending that knots a horrifying twist in the lives of all involved!
Also know as LET SLEEPING CORPSES LIE and DON’T OPEN THE WINDOW, this carefully constructed and beautifully photographed tale of the undead roaming the English countryside comes from acclaimed Spanish Director Jorge Grau. Now fully restored and remastered in High Definition from the original camera negative, Blue Underground is proud to present THE LIVING DEAD AT MANCHESTER MORGUE in this 2-Disc Special Edition bursting at the seams with exclusive new extras!
THE CASE OF THE BLOODY IRIS (special edition rerelease): Blue Underground
When two young women are viciously slain in a luxury high-rise, a beautiful young model (Edwige Fenech of STRIP NUDE FOR YOUR KILLER and HOSTEL: PART II) moves into one of their vacated apartments – and soon finds that she is now being stalked by the mysterious killer! The suspects include her ex-husband (a member of a group sex cult), a predatory lezzbian neighbor, the deformed son of a sinister widow, and even the building’s handsome architect (George Hilton of THE KILLER MUST KILL AGAIN) who suffers from a paralyzing fear of blood. Can she expose the masked maniac with a taste for luscious women and depraved murder before she becomes his next victim?
Directed by Giuliano Carnimeo (under the pseudonym Anthony Ascott) and written by Ernesto Gastaldi (screenwriter of such notorious thrillers as TORSO and THE WHIP AND THE BODY), this shocking giallo is also known as EROTIC BLUE and WHAT ARE THOSE STRANGE DROPS OF BLOOD DOING ON JENNIFER’S BODY?
Giallo fans should also check out the Blue Underground special edition rereleases of BLOODSTAINED SHADOW, SHORT NIGHT OF GLASS DOLLS, and WHO SAW HER DIE?, all of which also hit stores 02/26/08.
KEEP THE BLOOD FLOWING!!!
