Description
In this shattering
variation on The
Monkey’s Paw, grief-stricken suburban parents (Academy Award nominees John
Marley of The Godfather and Lynn
Carlin of Faces) refuse to
accept the news
that their son Andy (Richard Backus) has been killed in
Vietnam. But when Andy returns home soon after, something may be horribly wrong:
Andy is alive
and well
or is he?
Produced and directed
by Bob
Clark (Black Christmas) and written
by Alan
Ormsby (Deranged), Deathdream became one of the very
first films to
confront the domestic
ravages of the Vietnam
War. More than thirty years later, it remains one of the most
chilling horror films of all time.
Deathdream was released under several different titles, including Dead
Of Night, The Night Walk and The
Night Andy Came Home, and marked
the grisly
debut of gore effects legend Tom Savini (Dawn Of The Dead). Blue
Underground is proud to
present this acclaimed zombie shocker fully restored from a
long-lost negative, as
well as
exclusive new Extras that include two featurettes, audio commentaries with
Ormsby and Clark, a
definitive ad art gallery and more.
