Monster Squad Finally About To Be Released on DVD
Last week on the The Horror Blog’s Weekly Horror Roundtable, Steven posed the question: What deserving horror movies have not yet received a North American DVD release? Film Junk’s own Jay Cheel (and many others) responded with Fred Dekker’s Night of the Creeps and Monster Squad as two of the most wanted flicks. In fact, there have been some online campaigns to get both of these classic films released on DVD, but now it looks like at least one of them will finally see the light of day in 2007.
Don May Jr. of Synapse Films recently confirmed in an interview with the Deadpit.com online radio show that someone has indeed obtained the rights to Monster Squad. “The Monster Squad is coming out. We’re not releasing it but I can tell you its coming… They’re shooting for an April or May release.” An official announcement has yet to be made, but this is definitely the big news that a lot of fans have been waiting for. Unfortunately it sounds like rights issues are still preventing Night of the Creeps from being released at this time.
