Media Blasters gave Fango the scoop that it will release the 1983 chiller ONE DARK NIGHT to DVD November 15 on the Shriek Show label. The directorial debut of Tom McLoughlin, who went on to helm FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VI and numerous TV projects including SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK, NIGHT also gave Meg Tilly (pictured) her first starring role, as a student whose hazing requires her to spend a night in a mausoleum—and has the bad luck to do it when the resident corpses start coming to life. Elizabeth (a.k.a. E.G.) Daily and Adam West co-star; the disc will include McLoughlin commentary, a behind-the-scenes featurette and more. Media Blasters also informed us that its release of ANTHROPOPHAGUS: THE GRIM REAPER (coming October 25) will be a two-disc set also including a documentary on the films of Joe D’Amato, and that the DVD of FRANKENSTEIN’S BLOODY TERROR (same date) will include the full first reel deleted from previous U.S. theatrical prints.
