Scream Factory will take viewers to the underworld this summer with their newly announced Blu-ray/DVD release of Can Evrenol’s Baskin. While special features for the combo pack have yet to be revealed, Baskin fans can look forward to seeing it hit shelves on August 9th and can take a look at the familiar cover art right now:
From Scream Factory: "We are proud to announce that we have a new (and rather grisly) IFC Midnight film planned for release on Blu-ray & DVD this Aug. Brace yourself for BASKIN.
A five-man unit of cops on night patrol get more than they bargain for when they arrive at a creepy backwater town in the middle of nowhere after a call comes over the radio for backup. Entering a derelict building, the seasoned tough guys and their rookie junior, who's still haunted by a traumatic childhood dream, do the one thing you should never do in this kind of movie: they split up. They soon realize they've stumbled into a monstrous charnel house and descend into an ever-more nightmarish netherworld where grotesque, mind-wrenching horrors await them at every turn. But things aren't what they seem in this truly disturbing, outrageously gory, and increasingly surreal film whose unpredictable narrative slippages pull the carpet from under your feet and keep you guessing right up to the final moment. A wildly original film that reconfirms Turkey as the breakout national cinema of the moment.
