From 1981's An American Werewolf in London to 1985's Silver Bullet, moviegoers had a good number of films featuring full moon howlers to enjoy. Not to be forgotten are The Howling movies (loosely based on the late Gary Brandner's book series) that began in ’81 and continued with ’85's Howling II, and Scream Factory has announced they will release Howling II on Blu-ray for the first time this summer.

Upon its release in 1985, Howling II had multiple titles and it's not known yet which one will be used for the new home media release. The special features and cover art are also unknown at this time, but we'll keep Daily Dead readers updated on further announcements.

From Scream Factory: "1985's HOWLING II will be coming out later on in the Summer! We were not prepared to announce the title at this time but the cat (or, in this case, wolf) was let out of the bag from another source. We have no details at this time and we hope that fans of this cult classic are pleased to see this arrive on Blu-ray for the first time!"
