House by the Cemetery (Arrow Video) Limited Edition Blu-ray

You may have just mortgaged your life!

Shock gore master Lucio Fulci’s The House by the Cemetery is one of the finest typically single-minded exercises in zombie terror. Its just a shame no-one told the Boyle family who move into a gothic style house (by a cemetery) with a bloody past and a guts spraying future, what is yet to come! You’d think they’d twig given the basement door is nailed shut that they should get the hell out. Instead they stay long enough to discover their zombified non rent-paying lodger, the cellar-dwelling, flesh-hungry Dr Freudstein and boy is he pissed!

Just had an email from hmv saying shipped,now just read this on arrows facebook page:(

I suppose they mean disc 2 with the special features.

Unfortunately we have bad news on this gloomy Monday. The Limited Edition House by the Cemetery was incorrectly packed by our manufacturer meaning that they put the wrong DVD disc inside the package and we are having to recall the stock and have it re-packed. This will have a knock on effect on the release date, meaning it will now arrive on June 4th, hopefully earlier. We're absolutely furious with our manufacturer after the slipbox printing problems so we're going to seriously kick their asses about this. Please accept our sincerest apologies and hope you will bear with us.
