Throughout the month of October, the folks at Scream Factory gave horror hounds plenty of treats with a slew of new Blu-ray title unveilings and now they are kicking off December with another gift for fans: two new title announcements and updated release dates for a bunch of Blu-rays, including the long-awaited Collector's Edition of Dog Soldiers and the Blacula / Scream, Blacula, Scream double feature.
Scream Factory plans to release the delayed Collector's Edition Blu-ray of Dog Soldiers on March 10th, while Blacula / Scream, Blacula, Scream is scheduled to come out on Blu-ray on March 3rd.
In addition to their Italian exploitation double feature of Exterminators of the Year 3000 and Cruel Jaws (slated for a March 3rd Blu-ray release), Scream Factory is bringing the Tom Sizemore-starring Dark Haul to Blu-ray on March 10th. We have Scream Factory's official announcement with full details and a look at the newly announced titles' cover art:
"Good afternoon/evening everyone! Now that the Thanksgiving break is over, we wanted to start off the month and week right by sharing with you several updates on some of our upcoming 2015 releases that have been previously announced—and even reveal some more films too! So without further ado...
- PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (2/17): Extras will be announced sometime this month.
- NEW YEAR'S EVIL (2/24): Extras to be announced on, you guessed it, New Year's Eve 12/31.
- **NEW TITLE ANNOUNCE** On March 3, we present a double feature of two notorious Italian-made exploitation films that are about as cheesy, entertaining and “rip-offish” as it gets: 1983’s EXTERMINATORS OF THE YEAR 3000 and 1995’s CRUEL JAWS will be paired together, both for the first time on the blu-ray format. Pre-order now@ https://www.shoutfactory.com/…/exterminators-of-the-year-30… and receive it two weeks early!
- **NEW TITLE ANNOUNCE** On March 10 we will unleash the action-packed creature feature film DARK HAUL – which recently premiered on the Syfy network - on both Blu-ray and DVD. The film stars Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down), Evalena Marie (Remains), Rick Ravanello (The Cave, Hart’s War), Anthony Del Negro (Deep in the Darkness), Adrienne LaValley (Insidious) and Kevin Shea (Dead Souls).
