The 1993 anthology directed by John Carpenter and Tobe Hooper is planned for Blu-ray in November.
As previously reported, Scream Factory will be bringing 'Body Bags' to Blu-ray later this year, and now the date has been set for November 12.
For the first time on Blu-ray™, 'John Carpenter Presents Body Bags' features John Carpenter as a creepy-looking coroner introducing a trilogy of blood-curdling tales: “The Gas Station” (starring Robert Carradine, 'Revenge of the Nerds' and Alex Datcher, 'Passenger 57'), “Hair” (starring Stacy Keach, 'The Bourne Legacy'), and “Eye”(Directed by Tobe Hooper, 'Poltergeist,' and starring Mark Hamill, 'Star Wars'). With special appearances by Deborah Harry ('Scarface'), Sheena Easton ('Miami Vice'), Twiggy, David Naughton ('An American Werewolf in London'), John Agar ('Tarantula'), David Warner ('The Omen') and cameos by notable horror film legends Wes Craven ('A Nightmare on Elm Street'), Tobe Hooper ('Lifeforce,' 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre'), Sam Raimi ('The Evil Dead'), Roger Corman ('House of Usher') and Greg Nicotero ('The Walking Dead'), this pulse-pounding horror collection delivers a fright-filled night of terror to remember.
Specs have yet to be detailed, but supplements will include: Audio Commentary with director John Carpenter and actor Robert Carradine on "THE GAS STATION"; Audio Commentary with director John Carpenter and actor Stacy Keach on "HAIR"; Audio Commentary with producer Sandy King on "EYE" moderated by Justin Beahm; New Interviews with John Carpenter, Producer Sandy King and actors Stacy Keach and Robert Carradine; and Trailer.
Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is $29.93.
