Night Of The Creeps Gets A 4K Blu-ray Release From Scream Factory

Scream Factory is releasing a new 4K Blu-ray edition of Night of the Creeps, one of the best 80s horror films, on March 25!



Article Summary

  • Scream Factory releases Night of the Creeps in 4K Blu-ray on March 25.
  • Includes director's cut, new commentaries, and special features.
  • Features a career retrospective interview with director Fred Dekker.
  • Loaded three-disc set includes extensive behind-the-scenes content.

Night of the Creeps is one of my personal favorite horror films, and in my eyes, completely underrated. Starring Tom Atkins at the height of his genre powers, this tale of a night on campus gone wrong is full of some of the coolest practical effects ever, and they will look glorious in this new 4K Blu-ray presentation from Scream Factory. This loaded three-disc set includes the director's cut of the film, as well as new audio commentaries and special features, leaving no stone unturned so that anything you want to know about this production will be out there. Below is the exhaustive list of features and the artwork for the release, coming on March 25. This looks like it will unseat the original Blu-ray release they did a few years ago as the definitive version to own.

Night Of The Creeps 4K Blu-ray Release Details

Thrill me! When an alien experiment goes awry, it crashes to Earth in 1959 and infects a young college student. Twenty-seven years later, his cryogenically frozen body is thawed out by fraternity pledges … and the campus is quickly overrun by alien creatures whose victims turn into zombies! Fred Dekker's thoroughly enjoyable throwback chiller deftly blends multiple genres and is rightfully hailed as a true cult classic.
