Anchor Bay Entertainment gives thriller film fans yet another treat with the November 7th DVD premiere of The Seduction, writer/director David Schmoeller's 1982 journey into erotic sex, violence and jaw-dropping suspense. Starring Andrew Stevens (The Fury) and marking the big-screen debut of Morgan Fairchild ("Fashion House"), The Seduction is the one of the all-time great 1980's pulp films! All Movies Guide said that "Morgan Fairchild has seldom looked better!" SRP for the enticing DVD is $14.98 and pre-book is September 27th, 2006.
Anchorwoman Jamie Douglas (Fairchild) has it all: a glamorous career on a top-rated news show in Los Angeles, a luxurious house in the hills, and a devoted young admirer named Derek (Stevens). When the young admirer becomes obsessed and his romantic advances are rebuffed, he begins forging himself into her life: secretly watching her most intimate moments and waiting for the right moment to become part of her world. With no one to protect her, Jamie finds herself alone, trapped like an animal and fighting back with the only weapon she has left. Will she be forced to fulfill The Seduction?

A Halloween to die for
Anchor Bay Entertainment is releasing three spine-tingling horror titles for the first time on DVD this October, giving genre fans three more reasons to look forward to the scariest month of the year. October 3rd brings The Norliss Tapes and October 10th finds Baby Blood and Superstition hitting DVD shelves. Three horror must-haves at the insanely low SRP of $14.98 each!
THE NORLISS TAPES
Originally broadcast in 1973, this made-for-TV chiller by veteran horror producer
Dan Curtis ("Dark Shadows," "The Night Stalker," "Trilogy
of Terror") stars Roy Thinnes as David Norliss, an investigative reporter
exposing supernatural hoaxes and paranormal phenomena. But after a frightened
phone call to his publisher, Norliss disappears leaving only a stack of cassettes
where he dictated his strange findings: When a wealthy widow is attacked by
the crazed corpse of her recently deceased husband, Norliss discovers a horrific
case of empty crypts, blood-drained bodies and occult violence. Moviesandtvnews.com
calls The Norliss Tapes "one of the good ones that slipped under the radar."
