One of the standout new arrivals this week is the controversial 1981 horror movie Nightmare – also known as Nightmares in a Damaged Brain – now available on 4K Ultra HD from Severin.

The controversial 1981 horror movie Nightmare – also known as Nightmares in a Damaged Brain – is coming back to life on 4K Uhd from Severin Films, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report this afternoon. The film has been scanned from the internegative and various foreign print sources to create the most complete version ever assembled!
Severin is also publishing a 193 page novelization of the film, written by Rue Morgue’s Michael Gingold, based on the original screenplay by Romano Scavolini.
It’s been called “graphic and unapologetic” (SexGoreMutants), “brutally effective” (Screen Rant) and “a forgotten classic” (Horror News). It remains the most reviled, controversial and misunderstood genre film of the ‘80s. Now “the most repulsive, degrading and horrifying movie ever made” (NY Daily News) can be experienced like never before.
When a homicidal mental patient (an enduringly disturbing performance by Baird Stafford) flees an experimental drug program, he’ll leave a 5-day trail...

Very recently I sat down with film director Jake West for a fascinating and lively discussion on the history of the ‘video nasty’. It was a highly peculiar time in British cinema and legal history which saw films effectively demonised for being, well, a horror film.
West and his co-producer Marc Morris release Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide today (8th November) via their Nucleus Films company. It is highly recommended viewing and really can claim to be the ‘definitive’ word on the subject. You can read my review here.
I interviewed Jake last year when the great horror comedy, Doghouse, was released and it was cool to chat again. Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide was a labour of love for the director and his co-producer but what we get is a brilliant dissection of British history, censorship and some good old-fashioned horror celebration.
