Scream Factory recently gave horror and sci-fi fans a lot to look forward to with their Comic-Con announcement of upcoming Blu-ray titles, and they now have a big update on one of the most anticipated of the bunch: a Collector's Edition Blu-ray of Misery.

On Facebook, Scream Factory unveiled Joel Robinson's new Blu-ray cover art for the 1990 adaptation of Stephen King's Misery, and they also revealed that a new 4K film transfer is in the works and that the special features will include a new interview with director Rob Reiner.

Due out on November 28th, additional special features for the Misery Collector's Edition Blu-ray will be announced in September, and we'll be sure to share them with Daily Dead readers.

From Scream Factory: "Hot off our announcement at Comic-Con is some more news on the project that’s sure to interest every “cockadoodie” fan of this classic Stephen King-based thriller! ;-)

- National U.S. & Canada Release date: 11/28/17.

- The release will be branded as a "Collector's Edition" that will come with a slipcover (guaranteed for three months after its original release date)

- The newly-commissioned and conceptual artwork pictured (we all know THAT scene < shudder >) comes to us from artist Joel Robinson (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Tales from the Hood, Ginger Snaps). The reverse side of the wrap will showcase the original theatrical poster art design.

- Bonus features and specs are still in progress and will be announced sometime in Sept. We can confirm though that we will be doing a new 4K film transfer and we have a new interview with Director Rob Reiner already!
