The Seduction Blu-ray: "Morgan Fairchild (The Initiation of Sarah) is a news reporter terrorized by an obsessed admirer (played by Andrew Stevens, The Fury) in 1982’s steamy and deadly thriller THE SEDUCTION. Coming soon to Blu-ray for the first time on May 21st!

L.A. anchorwoman Jamie Douglas (Fairchild) has it all: a glamorous career on a top-rated news show, a luxurious house in the hills, and a devoted young fan named Derek (Stevens). But when Jamie rebuffs his romantic advances, Derek becomes a stalker who plays out an increasingly psychotic courtship with the frightened newswoman. Soon he is threatening every part of her life, secretly watching even her most intimate moments. Her tough-talking lover (Michael Sarrazin) can't console her. A by-the-book cop (Vince Edwards) can't protect her. But Jamie is far from helpless ... and ready to fight back with all the weapons at her command. When the smoke clears ... who will survive THE SEDUCTION?

Directed by David Schmoeller (Tourist Trap, Crawlspace) and produced by Irwin Yablans (Halloween) and Bruce Cohn Curtis (Hell Night).

Extras are in progress and will be announced on a later date.

The Chosen Blu-ray: "The end of the world is near (sort of). 1977’s apocalyptic thriller THE CHOSEN is arriving on Blu-ray for the first time on May 14th.

Kirk Douglas (The Fury) stars as industrialist Robert Caine, who with his son Angel (Simon Ward) is finally about to realize his biggest dream: a massive nuclear power plant in the Holy Land. But soon, Caine's dream becomes a horrific nightmare as person after person associated with the project meets a violent, gruesome death. When clues to this inexplicable turn of events point to the devil, Caine comes to the terrible realization that he might be linked to the Antichrist ... perhaps even through his unborn child.

Also known as Holocaust 2000 and Rain Of Fire (and previously released in the US on DVD under the name), this riveting thriller in the vein of The Omen "is probably the best made and best budgeted of the Italian occult films of the 1970s" (The Science Fiction, Horror and Fantasy Film Review) and was directed by cult filmmaker Alberto De Martino (The Antichrist, Blood Link and Strange Shadows In An Empty Room).

Our version is the longer, 102 international cut of the film. The reverse wrap will feature artwork for Holocaust 2000.
