Synapse Films has released a number of Hammer horror classics on Blu-ray/DVD and they'll be giving us Hands of the Ripper in July. Take a look at the official cover art and bonus features that will be included.

"A series of murders occur that mirror those committed by the Whitechapel Ripper. Through his experiments with early psychoanalysis Dr John Pritchard discovers a deadly violence in one of his young female patients. As he delves into the recesses of her schizophrenic mind he uncovers that Anna is possessed by her dead father's spirit, willing her to commit acts of gruesome savagery over which she has no control. But the most chilling revelation of all is the identity of her father... Jack the Ripper himself."
