Special Features announced for Scream Factory's Blu-ray of Wes Craven's CURSED!
Scream Factory has a solid track record of releasing the films of Wes Craven. This Spring, they’ll drop their new collector’s edition of Wes Craven’s “CURSED!”
Not to be confused with “THE Cursed,” the 2005 werewolf film is the next collaboration between Craven and “Scream” writer Kevin Williamson. Notorious to some, the film was recut with new actors and even new roles for existing actors. While it didn’t make our list of the top 5 Wes Craven films, “Cursed” is a major curio for horror fans.
The blu-ray features a brand-new 4k scan of the theatrical AND unrated versions, as well as insights from creature performer Derek Mears, and insights from Patrick Lussier, Craven’s go-to editor for his Dimension years. It releases on May 10, 2022 and is now available for pre-order at Shout Factory for $28.43 USD.
