Following the huge success of The Return of the Living Dead, Second Sight Films is now bringing the wonderfully warped Basket Case - The Trilogy to special edition Blu-ray and DVD for the first time. Best known for being one of the essential repeat rentals for any self-respecting horror fan in the early 1980's, Frank Henenlotter's cult classic and the glorious psychotic sequels it spawned are now collected together in one of the most twisted and enjoyable horror trilogies ever made.
This bumper release will hit the streets on 22 October 2012 as a limited edition three-disc steelbook and special edition DVD, complete with newly commissioned bonus material produced by bonus feature specialists Severin Films, and the best part is: THE DISC IS REGION FREE!!!
