Scream Factory will make this Halloween season one to remember for many horror fans, as they have just announced a Collector's Edition Blu-ray of William Peter Blatty’s The Exorcist III.

Due out on October 25th, The Exorcist III Collector's Edition Blu-ray will feature a long list of yet-to-be-revealed bonus features, as well as a Director's Cut of the film that Scream Factory is taking extra care to put together:

From Scream Factory: "You’ve heard the rumors for months…and they’re all true! William Peter Blatty’s cult favorite THE EXORCIST III will be bearing its cross on a 2-disc Collector’s Edition Blu-ray set from us on October 25th.

Extras (of which there are tons of) are underway and will be announced at a date in Late Summer / Early Fall. The newly-designed front-facing artwork you see here is final (not pictured is the reverse wrap image which will showcase the original theatrical poster art.) Early pre-order now directly from us @ https://www.shoutfactory.com/…/the-exorcist-iii-collector-s… and receive a free 18" x 24" poster of the new art (while supplies last) plus early shipping!

We know that the biggest question you might have is: Will there be a “Director’s Cut” of the film? The answer is yes—but with some caveats. We are working on putting together a version that will be close to Blatty’s original script using a mixture of various film and video tape sources that we have been provided with. This is still a work in progress and we will update you with more details at the time we announce the full list of bonus materials."
