Released in the direct wake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, Wes Craven‘s Deadly Friend is finally getting the Collector’s Edition Blu-ray treatment, Scream Factory announced today.
Deadly Friend comes to Blu-ray for the first time on October 12!
Scream Factory notes, “This will be presented as a Collector’s Edition and will come guaranteed with a slipcover in its first three months of release. The newly commissioned artwork pictured comes to us from artist Colin Murdoch. This art will be front-facing, and the reverse side of the wrap will feature the original theatrical artwork. Extras will be announced on a later date, but we can confirm today that there will be a new HD transfer of the film (same runtime & content as the prior “Twisted Terror” DVD) and interview with actress Kristy Swanson!”
The company also explains, “We anticipate being asked if we found any alternate footage from the film (as seen in the original theatrical trailer) or Craven’s more milder original feature-length cut. Unfortunately, we could not locate any lost footage after investigating. Sorry, we tried. As fans of the film ourselves we wanted to see that too!”
In the 1986 film, “After his friend is killed by her abusive father, the new kid in town attempts to save her by implanting a robotic microchip into her brain.”
