Scream Factory wasted no time kicking their week into high gear, as today they announced six upcoming Blu-ray releases that are sure to scratch the cult horror and sci-fi itch for home media collectors.

Coming to Blu-ray this summer from Scream Factory are Alienator, Vicious Lips, The Bat People, The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake, The Man From Planet X, and Windows. Specific release dates and special features have yet to be announced, and you can be sure that we'll keep Daily Dead readers updated on all six of these releases.

From Scream Factory: "Some of you may remember last year that we asked you to vote on some obscure titles we had existing rights on and if you wanted to see them come to the Blu-ray format. Since then we already announced several from that list and now we can confirm that we have even more planned for Summer of 2017 as well:

THE MAN FROM PLANET X (1951)
THE FOUR SKULLS OF JONATHAN DRAKE (1959)
THE BAT PEOPLE (1974)
VICIOUS LIPS (1986)
ALIENATOR (1990)

No confirmed street dates or website pre-order links have been assigned yet, but we’ll let you know as soon as they’re available"

From Scream Factory: "The controversial (for its time) NYC-based stalker thriller WINDOWS is pVisit Sitelanned for a Blu-ray release for the first time this Summer!

The film has an interesting backstory: Released by United Artists, it was the first theatrical release of the 80s. It stars Talia Shire (Rocky) and Elizabeth Ashley (Coma), scored by Oscar-Winner Ennio Morricone and was directed by Gordon Willis (Cinematographer of The Godfather amongst other fine credits). It was also embroiled in some public uproar due to its subject matter, joining other such NYC-based early 80s films such as Cruising, Dressed to Kill, The Fan and Maniac.

More details (street date, extras--if anyone is willing to discuss this film publicly, etc) will be revealed at a later date."
