We've been covering a good bit of Scream Factory news in the last few months and for good reason. They've already announced an impressive slate of collector's edition Blu-ray/DVD releases and many more are on the way. Their most recent announcement revealed that they will be releasing The Video Dead.
This 1987 direct-to-video zombie movie has gained a cult following over the years, but has not received a proper DVD release in the US. At this time it isn't known whether this will be a DVD release only or Blu-ray as well, but all Scream Factor titles have been available on both formats so far. Expect more information over the next few months, which a release in early 2013.
Here's a brief synopsis and a trailer for those that haven't seen it:"When teenagers Jeff and Zoe find an old T.V. set in their new house, they're not to know that it's haunted; but when a horde of flesh-eating monsters escape through the screen to prey upon a quite suburb, it's up to them to end the bloodshed by forcing the zombies back into their transistorized crypt."
