Scream Factory is taking Norman Bates fans back to where it all started this summer with their newly announced Blu-ray release of Mick Garris' Psycho IV: The Beginning, starring Anthony Perkins.

Scream Factory has slated their Blu-ray of Psycho IV: The Beginning for an August 23rd release. Bonus features are underway and will be revealed early this summer. Stay tuned to Daily Dead for more updates, and take a look at the official announcement and cover art below:

From Scream Factory: "This Summer stay out of the showers! “Norman Bates” is back in PSYCHO IV, which is headed to the Blu-ray format on August 23rd.

A seemingly rehabilitated Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins) is drawn to a late night radio show where the host (CCH Pounder) encourages him to share his views on the topic of matricide. Reliving his childhood, Norman recounts his trials of a young boy (Henry Thomas) living with his widowed schizophrenic mother (Olivia Hussey). These haunting memories are more than just disturbing visions of the past; they threaten to rekindle his killing urge in this spine-tingling thriller directed by Mick Garris (The Stand, Masters of Horror).

Extras are in progress and will be announced sometime later on in the early Summer time period. Pre-order now @ https://www.shoutfactory.com/…/film…/psycho-iv-the-beginning"
