After witnessing a bizarre, traumatic incident involving a patient, Dr. Rose Cotter (Sosie Bacon) starts experiencing frightening occurrences that she can’t explain. As an overwhelming terror begins taking over her life, Rose must confront her troubling past in order to survive and escape her horrifying new reality.

Based on the best-selling Stephen King novel, this “absolutely spellbinding horror movie” (Roger Ebert) stars Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie in Oscar®-nominated performances. This ultimate revenge fantasy has become one of the all-time great horror classics! At the center of the terror is Carrie (Spacek), a high school loner with no confidence, no friends…and no idea about the extent of her secret powers of telekinesis. But when her psychotic mother and sadistic classmates finally go too far, the once-shy teen becomes an unrestrained, vengeance-seeking powerhouse who, with the help of her “special gift,” causes all hell to break loose in a famed cinematic frenzy of blood, fire and brimstone! This classic also stars John Travolta (Blow Out), Amy Irving (The Fury), William Katt (House) and P.J. Soles (Halloween).

Prepare for a trilogy of pure terror with this collection of films from the Silent Night, Deadly Night series. In Better Watch Out!, it’s a very bloody Christmas after Ricky Caldwell, the notorious “Killer Santa Claus,” awakens from a six-year coma with one thing on his mind: murder. In Initiation, a reporter’s investigation into a mysterious death leads her into the clutches of a cult that’s chosen her as its new queen, and The Toy Maker stars entertainment legend Mickey Rooney as a toy maker whose creations display some very human — and deadly — tendencies.

There’s a hairy humanoid beast lurking in the Louisiana swamps, but only trapper Joe Canton (Jack Elam, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST) has seen it and lived to tell the tale, and the other residents of Oil City, Louisiana don’t talk about it. But that’s not about to stop intrepid grad students Pahoo (Dennis Fimple, HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES) and Rives (John David Carson, EMPIRE OF THE ANTS), who are determined to track down the Bigfoot-like creature. Defying local sheriff Billy Carter (Bill Thurman, THE LAST PICTURE SHOW), the duo trek deep into the wilds of Black Lake, and a series of frightening encounters make it clear the monster is no mere legend. Following in the (big) footsteps of THE LEGEND OF BOGGY CREEK and similar docudramas, 1976’s CREATURE FROM BLACK LAKE is a fictional Sasquatch saga, albeit one inspired by real reports. With a colorful cast, also including Dub Taylor (THE WILD BUNCH), and plenty of rural atmosphere courtesy of cinematographer Dean Cundey (HALLOWEEN, JURASSIC PARK), scripter Jim McCullough Jr.-who also co-stars-and director Joy Houck Jr. Bring touches of humor and humanity that complement the mystery of the monster, and the terror of it’s attacks. A longtime late-night TV favorite, CREATURE FROM BLACK LAKE now roars onto it’s Blu-ray debut with a new 4K restoration and a boatload of special features!

These teenagers have been underestimated their whole lives, but using makeshift weapons and their horror movie knowledge, they show the aliens you don’t mess with the girls from Pang.

Following the death of his mother, a young boy’s obsession with a comic book she gave him called The Bloody Man summons the ancient monster from it’s pages, who stalks him and his family until they unite to end his reign of terror.
