He’s pure evil... pure power... pure terror!
Following 2017's phenomenal Blu-ray release, Kino Lorber have revealed that they are working on a 4K Ultra HD release of of George Pavlou's 1986 Irish horror film Rawhead Rex.
Rawhead Rex will be unleashed on 4K UHD just in time for Halloween, on October 25th, 2022.
Special features and tech specs have yet to be announced, but we're guessing the release will, at the very least, include the extras found on the Blu-ray, as well as Dolby Vision and new HDR color grading.
In the film, "Rawhead Rex is a demon, alive for millennia, trapped in the depths of hell, and waiting for release. He is held by an ancient seal, imprisoned for centuries in a barren field near the hamlet of Rathmore, Ireland. In time, this gruesome legacy has been forgotten, dismissed as an odd pre-Christian myth until Tom Garron (Donal McCann, December Bride) decides to plow the field his ancestors knew better than to disturb.
"The seal is broken and an unspeakable evil is unleashed - on a rampage of blood and lust. Howard Hallenbeck (David Dukes, Gods and Monsters), an American historian on a working vacation with his family, discovers on the stained glass windows of a local church a series of scenes illustrating the reign of terror of Rawhead Rex, but the one piece of glass depicting the defeat of the monster is missing. Rawhead Rex is on the loose, and he is insatiable as Howard is desperately races against time for a way to stop the vicious monster.
Rawhead Rex was directed by Pavlou (Transmutations) from a screenplay by horror legend Clive Barker (Hellraiser, Candyman, Nightbreed, Lord of Illusions).
