Black Magic Rites - Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD

The occultists' satanic rituals call for the blood of virgins… Could Laureen be next?Starring Mickey Hargitay (Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?) and Rita Calderoni (A Quiet Place in the Country), this bizarre, psychedelic fusion of eroticism and Italian Gothic horror is presented in an all-new 4K restoration from the original negative.Brand-new 4K HDR restoration from the original negative by Powerhouse Films4K (2160p) UHD presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible)Original Italian mono soundtrackAudio commentary with critics and authors David Flint and Kim Newman (2023)The Seventh Art According to Ralf Brown (2023): far-reaching documentary on the first half of Renato Polselli's career featuring an archival interviews with the filmmaker and his actor-collaborator Mickey Hargitay, as well as new contributions from director and programmer Luca ReaGianfranco Reverberi on 'Black Magic Rites' (2023): the composer revisits his haunting scoreLovely Jon on Gianfranco Reverberi (2023): the DJ and soundtrack enthusiast deconstructs the film's delirious compositionsStephen Thrower on 'Black Magic Rites' (2023): the author and musician analyses Polselli's nightmarish cult classicAlternative The Reincarnation of Isabel title sequenceOriginal theatrical trailerImage gallery: promotional and publicity materialsNew and improved English translation subtitlesLimited edition exclusive 80-page book with a new essay by Miranda Corcoran, a career-spanning archival interview with director Renato Polselli by Jay Slater, an archival autobiographical piece by Polselli, a look at the career of actor Mickey Hargitay, an overview of contemporary critical responses, and full film creditsWorld premiere on 4K UHDLimited edition of 10,000 numbered units (6,000 4K UHDs and 4,000 Blu-rays) for the UK and USAll extras subject to change
