Welcome to our NIGHTMARE… novelization release party with author Michael Gingold!
Join us on Saturday February 24th from 5-7PM as we celebrate the new Severin-released novelization of the classic 80’s gore soaked grindhouse slasher NIGHTMARE, written by legendary horror author and journalist Michael Gingold. Not only will we have the Nightmare Novelization on hand but we will also have copies of the new Blu-ray and 4K UHD of Nightmare for which Michael directed special features.
More about the Nightmare Novelization:
From the damaged brain of Rue Morgue’s Michael Gingold come 193 gore-soaked pages of madness and murder.
For George Tatum, the bad dreams were to blame for the atrocities he’d inflicted on those people in Brooklyn back in 1978. Since then, the experimental drug program had worked for a while and his doctors at The State Hospital for The Criminally Insane believed he was cured. But the childhood trauma that triggered his rage was still there, quietly seething in the dark recesses of his damaged brain. Now George is free again, and the psychotic carnage of his past can remain silent no longer.
First came the girl in the 42nd Street grindhouse. Then the woman in Myrtle Beach. Now George is heading south, inexorably drawn to the young family on the Florida coast – especially the boy, C.J. Over the next six days, George’s grisly visions will return. The butchery will escalate. And the ultimate nightmare is about to begin.
More about the Nightmare Blu-ray and 4K UHD:
TWO-DISC SPECIAL EDITION INCLUDES, THE NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN RESTORED VERSION PLUS 5+ HOURS OF NEW SPECIAL FEATURESIt’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 of psychosexual carnage from the peep shows of 42nd Street to the gore-soaked shores of Florida. Written and directed by Romano Scavolini, this “devastating masterpiece” (Cinefear) – whose UK release as NIGHTMARES IN A DAMAGED BRAIN led to the imprisonment of distributor David Hamilton-Grant – has been scanned from the internegative and various foreign print sources to create the most complete version ever assembled.
So mark your calendar, sharpen your knives, and let’s have a bloody good time celebrating Nightmare, Gingold and Severin!
