It’s been nearly 40 years since Lucio Fulci’s Zombie hit the big screen, and it remains one of the best zombie films ever, in a genre that has become somewhat stagnant over recent years due to complete saturation in TV, film and video games.

Arrow has once again proven its appreciation and attention to detail for genre film, and Torso is absolutely worth adding to your collection, especially if you’re a fan of classic giallo cinema.

Sadly, the Blu-ray release for Hereditary is a bit lacking, containing only a few bonus supplements, although what’s here is good.

There’s a special kind of cheesiness to ’90s horror, and Shadowbuilder is a prime example.
Arrow Video has announced its lineup for September, with new Blu-ray releases of Fred Zinnemann‘s The Day of the Jackal, Dario Argento‘s Deep Red (one of my favorite horror films of all-time), Ted Post‘s The Baby, Peter Fonda‘s The Hired Hand, Tomu Uchida‘s Bloody
