Summer may just be getting started, but Scream Factory has been giving genre fans several reasons to look forward to September. They recently announced upcoming Blu-rays for The Evil, The Seventh Sign, and The Bride, and now they've added 1990's Brain Dead—starring Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton—to their September slate:

From Scream Factory: "1990’s BRAIN DEAD featuring a “double Bill” – Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton – is coming to Blu-ray for the first time this September! The cast also includes Bud Cort (Harold and Maude) and George Kennedy (Cool Hand Luke).

The Eunice Corporation is on the ground floor of an exciting growth industry, utilizing a memory re-sculpting technique pioneered by eccentric neurosurgeon Rex Martin (Bill Pullman, Independence Day, The Grudge). It envisions nationwide clinics where anyone can lose the hang-ups of an unhappy childhood, a failed romance or a botched career. At Eunice's "New You" outlets, a simple operation will give customers peace of mind. Or it might leave them brain dead. But when Martin refuses to cooperate with Eunice, he soon finds himself plunged into a surreal existence that intertwines dreams and reality. Has Martin slipped over the edge into madness? Or have corporate profit mongers given him a push, making him the guinea pig in his own experiment? To know the answer is to know true terror! Directed by Adam Simon (TV's Salem) with a story by TV's The Twilight Zone writer Charles Beaumont.

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

National release date is September 11th but if you pre-order directly from us we'll ship it out two weeks early!https://www.shoutfactory.com/product/brain-dead…"
