Last summer, Kino Lorber had horror and sci-fi fans making sure there there was nothing wrong with their computer screens when they made the big announcement that the entire Outer Limits TV series was heading to Blu-ray and DVD, and now they've revealed the box set packaging, release date, and special features for the first season of the beloved anthology series.

Featuring new HD masters, Kino Lorber's Blu-ray and DVD release of The Outer Limits Season 1 will arrive on March 27th. All 32 episodes of the first season (which originally aired from September of 1963 to May of 1964) will be included, along with a 40-page booklet and 24 audio commentaries from notable film historians and creative minds such as David J. Schow and Reba Wissner.

To learn more, we have the full release details and a look at the box set below (via Facebook). Kino Lorber's Blu-ray and DVD release of the second season of The Outer Limits is expected to arrive sometime this year, and we'll be sure to keep Daily Dead readers updated when more details are announced.

    Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.

    When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
