Video Nasties DELIRIUM & NIGHT OF THE DEMON coming to UK BD from 88 Films.

Heads up all Video Nasty collectors, 88 Films have a wicked treat for you this February, with the release of the once banned classics DELIRIUM and NIGHT OF THE DEMON, making their debut on UK Blu-Ray.

DELIRIUM

For his feature film debut, director Peter Maris (MINISTRY OF VENGEANCE, DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY) took portions of an unfinished urban conspiracy thriller and added a new psycho-killer procedural to create what may be the most unusual/vicious proto-slasher shocker of the '70s: 

When a series of savage murders rocks St. Louis, the police investigation will lead to a deranged Vietnam vet "who looks like a cracked-out Seth McFarlane" (HorrorNews.net), an underground organization of white-collar vigilantes, gratuitous nudity, graphic violence and an absolute masterclass in low-budget regional filmmaking. 

One of the very first Section 2 Video Nasties, this longtime VHS rarity - also known as PSYCHO PUPPET - is now presented on disc for the first time ever, restored from the only known 35mm print in existence.

NIGHT OF THE DEMON

Amid the gush of early '80s low-budget backwoods horror, only one lost classic brought together softcore sex, hardcore violence, Satanic sex cults and a limb-tearing, gut-slinging, dick-ripping beast for "the best and bloodiest Bigfoot movie ever made." (Buried.com): 

When a group of Anthropology students heads deep into the forest to investigate a series of Sasquatch attacks, they'll discover an immortal brain-blast of crazy hermits, mutilated Girl Scouts, interspecies copulation and "one of the goriest final scenes in the whole history of splatter flicks" (A Slash Above). 

Producer/co-writer Jim L. Ball and director James C. Wasson deliver "an anti-masterpiece that moves like a bullet, unlike anything you've ever seen" (Mondo Digital) now scanned in 4K from the recently discovered 35mm answer print with over 5½ hours of Special Features on two discs.
