New Creepshow Special Edition DVD Announced

Michael Felsher has told Fangoria all about his plans for the UK R2 Creepshow DVD due before Halloween this year. Sorry, my American friends.

There's a commentary track from Romero and Savini; a deleted scene in which Ted Danson's severed hand comes after Leslie Nielsen; a retrospective documentary featuring many of the film's contributors.

Felsher also reveals his plans for a documentary on Faces of Death - the original, I assume - and his involvement in the Diary of the Dead DVD. All good stuff.

Say Hello To Dr. Death

A simple, but very well conceived teaser trailer for J T Petty's Faces of Death has popped up online. You may remember the much-banned Faces series of snuff videos, and the ever decreasing spiral of discussion that debated how 'real' their grisly images were. This confusion and controversy forms the backbone of the marketing approach in evidence here, and it seems to be a shrewd angle.

Reportedly, not a single frame has been shot yet, but the film is due in time for Halloween this year. Hopefully that means more news, and soon. I've got my eye on this one, and I think it may well turn out to be something special.
