'Nightmare City' Coming to Blu-ray

Posted Dec 12, 2013 at 06:00 AM PST by Steven Cohen

Umberto Lenzi's 1980 zombie movie will arrive on Blu-ray in December.

As previously reported, Raro Video is preparing 'Nightmare City' for Blu-ray on December 31.

Using a new high-definition transfer struck from the original 35mm negative, Umberto Lenzi's zombie shocker 'Nightmare City' stars actor Hugo Stiglitz as a reporter caught in a living, breathing zombie hell. When an airplane comes into contact with radiation from a nuclear disaster it causes the passengers to mutate into scabby-faced humanoids with a compulsion to kill and drink the blood of their victims. As the zombies move into the city and beyond, will anyone or anything be able to stop the wave of bloody death and disease that threatens to decimate mankind?

The Blu-ray will feature 1080p video and an LPCM 2.0 soundtrack, and supplements will include: An interview with Umberto Lenzi; Original English trailer; Original Italian trailer; and A fully illustrated booklet on the genesis and production of the film by Chris Alexander, Fangoria Magazine

Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is $34.95.
