AFTER MIDNIGHT
Release Date: 8th June 2020 (U.K. Release Only)
Format: Blu-ray
Directed by: Jeremy Gardner, Christian Stella
Prepare to be overwhelmed by a mind-bending horror with heart-wrenching emotional clout, from the film-makers behind cult genre hits THE BATTERY and Tex Montana Will Survive!
Imagine an H.P Lovecraft story directed by Richard Linklater, or a mumblecore version of Cellar Dweller, and you’re somewhere close to AFTER MIDNIGHT – a creepy, captivating and truly unnerving experience that’ll have you praying for daylight.
Expertly directed by Jeremy Gardner (who also takes the lead role) and Christian Stella (creators of cult favourites THE BATTERY and Tex Montana Will Survive!), and co-produced by the team behind Spring and The Endless, AFTER MIDNIGHT is a slow-burning, genre-bending gem about breaking up, moving on and facing your monsters-both real and imaginary.
Emotionally involving and unexpectedly moving, thanks to wonderfully understated performances from Gardener and Brea Grant, and beautifully filmed, with a haunting and affecting musical score, AFTER MIDNIGHT really is something else – a film with heart and soul, a good few laughs, not to mention knockout scares.
Eerie, ominous and intimate, fans of rustic thrillers like It Comes At Night, Blue Ruin and A Quiet Place will want to stay up late for this one.
Synopsis:
Ten years into his small-town romance with Abby, bartender Hank wakes up alone in an empty home with nothing but a cryptic parting note for company. As Hank drinks himself into heartbreak and depression, Abby’s sudden departure soon becomes the least of his concerns as a mysterious monster starts clawing at his door on a nightly basis.
As the threat outside his door intensifies, Hank calls on Abby’s police officer brother Shane and best friend Wade for help. With no trace of the monster – and his behaviour becoming more erratic – his friends remain unconvinced of the creature lurking outside, and Hank slips further into his own paranoia and loneliness.

DREAM DEMON
Release Date: 22nd June 2020 (U.K. Release)
23rd June 2020 (U.S.A./Canada Release)
Format: Blu-ray
Directed by: Harley Cokeliss
A young bride-to-be’s anxieties over her upcoming wedding take on a horrifying, demonic form in this underseen 1988 “rubber reality” shocker from director/co-writer Harley Cokeliss (Black Moon Rising), starring Timothy Spall and Jemma Redgrave.
As her marriage to decorated war hero Oliver draws near, well-heeled Diana moves into her sprawling new London home where she starts to experience strange and terrifying nightmares. But are these blood-curdling night terrors merely the symptom of an unsettled mind, or the sign of something far sinister at work? Hounded by a pair of sleazy journalists (Timothy Spall and Jimmy Nail), Diana soon crosses paths with American tourist Jenny, who appears to have a strange connection to the foreboding house and its sinister past.
Long dormant on home media since its original VHS release, Dream Demon – a terrific blend of psychological horror and late 80s practical gore effects – has at long-last been stirred from its analogue slumber and arrives on Blu-ray, newly-restored from the original camera negative and in a brand new Director’s Cut!

DJANGO (Limited Edition Blu-ray)
Release Date: 30th June 2020 (U.S.A./Canada Release)
Format: Blu-ray
Directed by: Sergio Corbucci
In this definitive Spaghetti Western, Franco Nero (Keoma, The Fifth Cord) gives a career-defining performance as Django, a mysterious loner who arrives at a mud-drenched ghost town on the Mexico-US border, ominously dragging a coffin behind him. After saving imperilled prostitute Maria (Loredana Nusciak), Django becomes embroiled in a brutal feud between a racist gang and a band of Mexican revolutionaries…
With Django, director Sergio Corbucci (The Great Silence) upped the ante for sadism and sensationalism in Westerns, depicting machine gun massacres, mud-fighting prostitutes and savage mutilations. A huge hit with international audiences, Django’s brand of bleak nihilism would be repeatedly emulated in a raft of unofficial sequels. The film is presented here in an exclusive new restoration with a wealth of extras including the newly restored bonus feature Texas Adios, which also stars Franco Nero, and was released as Django 2 in several territories.
BONUS MATERIALS:
