SEVERIN FILMS UNEARTHS ‘DANZA MACABRA VOLUME 5: THE SPANISH GOTHIC COLLECTION BOX SET’:
“Severin Films today announced the forthcoming release of DANZA MACABRA VOLUME FIVE: THE SPANISH GOTHIC COLLECTION. With their fifth installment of “an essential series of Euro-Gothic tastiness” (Mondo Digital), Severin returns to the cemeteries, catacombs and cobwebbed castles of Spanish cinema for an all-new exploration of Gothic Horror excellence with 4 uncut classics on 5 discs: In the North American Disc Premiere of 1964’s STRANGE VOYAGE, director Fernando Fernán Gómez crafts a macabre true-crime shocker featuring a poignant performance by none other than Jess Franco. The disturbing 1971 drama EXORCISM’S DAUGHTER is presented in its complete U.S. Version – now featuring the infamous orgy sequence – as well as the original Spanish Version LAS MELANCÓLICAS, both on disc for the first time ever. THE DRACULA SAGA is 1973’s grisly reinvention of vampiric damnation from the legendary León Klimovsky, uncut in North America for the first time ever. And in 1985’s acclaimed THE TURN OF THE SCREW; controversial director Eloy de la Iglesia adapts Henry James’ classic novella with a startling psychosexual twist. Each film in this collection has been scanned from original camera negatives or archival 35mm prints, with 10+ combined hours of new audio commentaries, video essays, interview featurettes and more. DANZA MACABRA VOLUME FIVE is now available for pre-order at The Severin Webstore. In addition, all four previous volumes of DANZA MACABRA will be available for 50% off SRLP through June 8th.”
