So, as you know, Scream! Factory came out strong this year, releasing some pretty stellar re-issues of many beloved horror/genre titles. They Live, Halloween II and III, Terror Train, The Funhouse… These are just some of the excellent presentations this division of Shout! Factory has brought us.
It appears Scream! is going even bigger in 2013. The company’s Facebook page made a “super-sized” announcement revealing some of the horror special editions it’s working on. (Psst, Lifeforce! The Fog! Head inside for more…)
