*Updated with bonus features* With the power to turn normal parents into psychopaths out to kill their children, the antique mirror known as the Lasser Glass in Oculus is a formidable foe. But one woman has survived its wrath, and she's set on deciphering the Lasser Glass' ancient evil and clearing the name of her brother, who did time for the mirror's cutthroat crimes. Before the summer's over you'll be able to watch this psychological horror movie from the comfortable confines of your own couch cushions.

On August 5th, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release director Mike Flanagan's Oculus to Blu-ray and DVD, with a UV digital copy and iTunes digital copy bundled with the Blu-ray:

“Ten years ago, tragedy struck the Russell family, leaving the lives of teenage siblings Tim and Kaylie forever changed when Tim was convicted of the brutal murder of their parents. Now in his 20s, Tim is newly released from protective custody and only wants to move on with his life; but Kaylie, still haunted by that fateful night, is convinced her parents’ deaths were caused by something else altogether: a malevolent supernatural force­­ unleashed through the Lasser Glass, an antique mirror in their childhood home. Determined to prove Tim’s innocence, Kaylie tracks down the mirror, only to learn similar deaths have befallen previous owners over the past century. With the mysterious entity now back in their hands, Tim and Kaylie soon find their hold on reality shattered by terrifying hallucinations, and realize, too late, that their childhood nightmare is beginning again…"
