NEW YORK, NY - FEBRUARY 27, 2014 - Kino Lorber and Redemption are proud to announce the Blu-ray release of The Flesh & Blood Show by the celebrated cult horror filmmaker Pete Walker. Kino Lorber and Redemption are pleased to release this film in a deluxe Blu-ray edition, mastered in HD from the original 35mm negatives and packed with special features (including a special 3D sequence) that will make this release a welcome addition to horror fans' collections. THE FLESH & BLOOD SHOW will come to Blu-ray on March 18th, with an SRP of $24.95. Special features on THE FLESH & BLOOD SHOW include: "Flesh, Blood, and Censorship," an interview with Pete Walker, by Elijah Drenner; 3-D sequence (10 min.) in the stereoscopic format (requires 3-D television system); 3-D sequence in the anaglyph format (requires red/blue 3-D glasses, not included); and the original theatrical trailer. Known for his films that blend elements of horror and exploitation, British director Pete Walker's long career in the horror genre spans over forty years. Lurking beneath the blood-soaked of his unabashedly tawdry films is the director's sly sense of humor. A former stand-up comic, Walker laced his films with clever wordplay, and took great pleasure in using his scripts to skewer figures of religious and political authority (especially those who dared to impose their sense of morality upon others). Kino Lorber and Redemption have previously released four of Walker's films on Blu-ray and DVD: House of Whipcord, Die Screaming, Marianne, The Comeback, and Schizo, and are proud to continue to bring the works of this unique director, whose films are ripe for re-discovery, to fans in high-quality HD transfers that do justice to his distinctive visual style. THE FLESH & BLOOD SHOW Billed as "An Appalling Amalgam of Carnage and Carnality," Pete Walker's THE FLESH AND BLOOD SHOW is an homage to the blood-spattered, sex-smeared theatre known as the Grand Guignol. Still haunted by an especially tragic production of Othello, a seaside theatre reopens its doors as a groovy musical revue, only to have several of its performers fall victim to the deadly curse. Newly mastered in HD from the original 35mm negative, this special edition includes a newly-filmed interview with Walker, as well as the legendary 3-D sequence, presented here in both the stereoscopic and anaglyph formats (as well as conventional 2-D).
