SECOND SIGHT Brings Another French Extreme Classic, INSIDE, to Blu-Ray
The early 2000s were a great time for the horror genre and a lot of the best films came from the French New Extremity wave. These films were known for their visceral and ultra-realistic depictions of brutal violence, often with a nihilistic worldview interlaced with real-life realities of trauma, abuse, and depravity. These films struck a chord with audiences worldwide because of how shocking and transgressive the content was and still is to this day. One of the hallmarks of this film movement is Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo’s Inside. Which is now getting the deluxe treatment by the purveyors of fine horror films in collectible packaging, Second Sight Films.
Releasing February 5, 2024, in a new limited-edition box set (with Standard Version to follow) this is the ultimate version of the landmark French film to own. Take a look at the press release below for more details, and keep your eyes peeled for a review only here at Macabre Daily!
Dare you go Inside Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo’s ‘brutally affecting’ and deeply disturbing French feature? The film is set to strike stomach-wrenching fear into audiences once more, 15 years after its original release in 2007 as Second Sight Films announce a brand-new Inside Limited Edition Blu-ray Box set release on 5 February 2024 complete with a host of fantastic new special features.
Following a car accident that leaves her husband dead, expectant mother Sarah (Alysson Paradis – The Childhood of Icarus) is left to prepare for her impending birth alone while grieving her terrible loss. But when a stranger (Béatrice Dalle – Betty Blue, Night on Earth) turns up at her house on Christmas Eve, things take a terrifying, unimaginably twisted turn… as the deranged intruder will stop at nothing to take her unborn baby.
The Inside Limited Edition box set is presented in a stunning rigid slipcase with new artwork by James Neal and includes a 70-page book with new essays. The special features include: new audio commentaries by Anna Bogutskaya and Elena Lazic, brand new interviews with the writer/directors Maury and Bustillo, and many more.
