The Bird With the Crystal Plumage

With an already awesome catalogue of output on both DVD and Blu-ray under their belts, the UK’s favourite cult label, Arrow Video, is a genre force to be reckoned with. So if you just can’t keep your mitts off of the quality material they keep firing out, then feast your eyes on some seriously juicy upcoming releases! 23rd May – The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (Blu-ray)

The peaceful Hudson River Valley is about to find itself in the middle of a holocaust or two. Hudson Horror Show III: A Tale of Two Holocausts is a film festival scheduled for May 14, 2011 at the Silver Cinemas South Hills 8 in Poughkeepsie, NY featuring a line-up of five serious heavy-hitters of horror and gore.

The horror DVDs coming out on Tuesday, February 24th are strange. Some good re-issues, some odd new releases, and a helluva lot of indie and Italian stuff I’ve never heard of. But only one or two, sadly, that I would want for my birthday (which is this weekend, FYI)...

The folks over at IGN DVD got a chance to sit down with Italian horror master Dario Argento recently to discuss the DVD release of his latest film, Mother of Tears. Of course the conversation inevitably turned to the current remake trend, and Argento let loose some very disturbing information.
