That's pretty awesome news.

I wonder if the bonus features will also be in HD?

this is going to be an awesome release, but I hope it's not all on one blu ray, because 3 films on one blu ray will kind of suck if they force 3 full HD films on one disc. But I will wait and see on this because the films themselves are great films.

I'm slightly embarrassed to be answering my own question but Severin have confirmed that all three films will be blu. I don't think they've indicated so far whether this will be a single or multi-disk package.

"HD but scanned in 2k from US release prints" so they're saying.

Was the US release of Terror Creatures cut? I can't remember...

[Fundi Guest Find all posts View Profile Close Fundi]

ah this is kind of lame, I remember the European prints having some risque scenes with Barbara Steele at least of one of the films if I remember correctly, and we all KNOW we need all the Barbara we can get damn it!

I'd like to see them release the Italian cuts AND the US versions on individual discs, along with any alternate scenes from European versions, sadly it doesn't look like this will happen, probably licencing and budget put a stop to this, damn shame!

Barbara Steele Gothic Horror Classic

Los Angeles, 6/25/15 - Severin Films today announced the global Blu-Ray premiere of NIGHTMARE CASTLE starring the Queen of gothic horror, Barbara Steele (BLACK SUNDAY).

Directed by Mario Caiano (NOSFERATU IN VENICE), featuring stunning black & white cinematography by Enzo Barboni (DJANGO) and the very first horror score by the legendary Ennio Morricone.

commentary with Barbara Steele, yeah I'm gonna buy this haha

The pre-order price indicates they're going to squeeze all three films onto one disk, so I'm going to wait for reviews of this.

Think i will as well, i notice they haven't specified Italian audio for 'Nightmare Castle', which is a shame. I think i'll stick to my custom subbed torrents for the other two, shame Arrow never got these!
