and two foreign '70s cult horror pics, 'Night of the Werewolf' and 'Vengeance
of the Zombies.'
"With the immediate consumer excitement and demand for HD-DVD players, we're
excited to be one of the first suppliers out of the box with HD programming,"
Ed Goetz, president of BCI, told HMR.
BCI has not yet announced full specs or exact release dates for its first HD-DVD
titles, though retail price will be $24.95 each.
