DVD Drive-In

On June 26, Olive Films will release the 1973 British horror anthology TALES THAT WITNESS MADNESS on both Blu-ray and DVD. The film will be remastered in HD from a 35mm archival print. Stroll down the corridors of a mental asylum, where your mind won’t believe what your eyes see. In the tradition of TALES FROM THE CRYPT and CREEPSHOW… this anthology of pulp horror tales, helmed by the ever-reliable horror master, Freddie Francis (DR. TERROR’S HOUSE OF HORRORS). The film features a quartet of eerie vignettes involving four patients in the care of psychiatrist Donald Pleasance (HALLOWEEN), who’s attempting to justify his strange theories to colleague, Jack Hawkins (THEATRE OF BLOOD). The all-star cast includes Kim Novak, Joan Collins, Peter McEnery and Suzy Kendall. One the same date, Olive Films will also release William Castle’s THE SPIRIT IS WILLING on both Blu-ray and DVD. The Blu-rays on both titles will retail for $29.95 and the DVDs will retail for $24.95.

Sounds good, always up for checking out another anthology film, especially on Blu! I'm curious about that Castle film as well.

I'm hearing mixed things about both, but I'm still willing to pull the trigger on 'em. Films like these just hit a sweet spot for me and I always enjoy them so I'm willing to take the risk.

Definitely excited about Tales That Witness Madness ! I've really wanted a dvd release of this for a long time and now we're getting it on blu ray as well. Now if they can release a Dr. Terrors blu, that would be perfect.
