Deadly Friend will be released on Collector’s Edition Blu-ray on October 12 via Scream Factory. Colin Murdoch designed the new cover for the 1986 sci-fi horror film; the original artwork will be on the reverse side.
Wes Craven (A Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream) directs from a script by Bruce Joel Rubin (Jacob’s Ladder, Ghost), based on Diana Henstell’s 1985 novel Friend. Matthew Laborteaux, Kristy Swanson, Michael Sharrett, Anne Twomey, Richard Marcus, and Anne Ramsey star.
Special features will be announced at a later date, but Scream Factory confirms that a new transfer of the film is underway along with a new interview with Swanson. No alternate footage/cuts were found.
