Horror fans have known for a while that New Zealand is a treasure trove of undiscovered horror. Now, an obscure cult classic will be getting a stunning return to the limelight, courtesy of Severin Films. The reissue specialists are delivering a remastered version of David Blyth’s Death Warmed Up (1984), a film Alejandro Jodorowsky described as “an apocalypse of slaughter”!
The Severin webstore is also offering bundles with exclusive merch, including limited edition slipcover, art print, sticker, t-shirt, and even a squeezable brain-shaped stress ball! Death Warmed Up will also be reissued with three unique covers. Give them a look-see below, followed by the synopsis, trailer, and special features for the film.
Synopsis:
A kid is hypnotized by a scientist to kill his parents and ends in a mental institution. As a grown-up, he returns to seek revenge over the scientist.
Death Warmed Up stars Michael Hurst, Margaret Umbers, and William Upjohn.
