***ANNOUNCEMENT***

Coming on October 13th on Blu-ray in the US from as part of their line: / (1959/1963)!

A Bucket of Blood (1959) with bonus film Dementia 13 (1963) [Special Edition] pairs two influential cult classics from producer Roger Corman in a special edition celebrating the enduring legacy of low-budget American horror. In A Bucket of Blood, meek busboy Walter Paisley unexpectedly becomes the darling of a beatnik art community after a gruesome accident launches his artistic career. As his fame grows, Walter discovers that maintaining his newfound success requires increasingly horrifying acts, transforming this dark satire into one of Roger Corman's defining horror comedies.

Also included is Dementia 13, the feature directorial debut of Francis Ford Coppola, produced by Roger Corman. Set amid a wealthy family plagued by buried secrets, psychological instability, and brutal axe murders, the gothic thriller showcases the emerging filmmaker's command of atmosphere while complementing the satirical horror of A Bucket of Blood. Together, these two cult favorites offer an outstanding double feature that explores ambition, obsession, greed, madness, and murder from two distinct perspectives.

This special edition is loaded with newly produced supplements including the Ballyhoo Motion Pictures documentary Jack Hill on FilmGroup, a full-length audio commentary for A Bucket of Blood by Tom Weaver, a full-length commentary for Dementia 13 by Heath Holland, presentation of A Bucket of Blood in its original 4:3 aspect ratio, new essays by Tom Weaver covering both films, Trailers from Hell segments for each feature, and newly re-imagined theatrical trailers for both films.
