Stephen King's 'Needful Things' Announced for Blu-ray

Needful Things

Fraser Clarke Heston's 1993 supernatural thriller will be getting the Blu-ray treatment this year.

In an early announcement to retailers, Kino will be releasing 'Needful Things' on Blu-ray in the coming months.

Welcome to Castle Rock, Maine, a lovely place to live... if you don't mind selling your soul! Oscar nominees Ed Harris (A Beautiful Mind) and Max Von Sydow (Minority Report) head an exceptional cast- including Bonnie Bedelia (Die Hard) and Amanda Plummer (Pulp Fiction)- in this supernatural thriller that's dark, haunting and "a hell of a good scare." (Los Angeles).

Sheriff Alan Pangborn (Harris) has a devil of a problem: Suddenly all the residents of his sleepy little town are dying... to kill each other. But at least business is still booming, especially at a new antique store. The shop's mysterious owner (Von Sydow) has something for everyone, and his prices are always reasonable: just one small favor... oh, and, of course, eternal damnation!

Specs have yet to be revealed, but the release will include a brand new audio commentary by director Fraser Clarke Heston.
