October 25th 2016
Halloween is less than a week away and today brings more horror to add to the library. Starting off our horror filled bluray Tuesday is Scream Factory's release of The Exorcist 3 with a new scan and bonus material. Severin releases Burial Ground with a new scan and bonus material as well. Burial Ground is a blind buy this week but I'm looking forward to checking out. Vinegar Syndrome is on a role this week releasing not one but four titles out for the first time on bluray: Deathrow Gameshow, Hobgoblins, Nightmare Sisters and double feature of Murder Weapon / Deadly Embrace. All four of these I'm unfamiliar with but sound super interesting. If anyone has seen this let us know what you think of them. Emma Roberts' (Scream Queens and American Horror Story) new thriller Nerve hits shelves today and is one of the two newest releases today. The newest big studio release film out today is David Sanberg's creepy and effective Lights Out, which also is produced by James Wan. Definitely a must buy this week for me, sadly no slip cover for this awesome release for those collectors like me that love a cool slipcover. Besides that I highly recommend checking this out. If you missed it we did review this title, you can check it out here. So what will you be buying, renting or skipping this week? Let us know in the comments and check out our Facebook and Instagram pages.We love the conversations and talking all things horror. Happy Halloween! Until next week.

decapitated and savagely crucified. It's just the beginning of a
nightmare series of bizarre religious murders. The brutal murders bear the hallmarks of the infamous Gemini Killer…who
died in the electric chair fifteen years earlier. But when a psychopath

horrifying truth that he cannot explain…and that will shake him to the
core.
