Schlock-Wire: Take A Voyage To LAKE PLACID On Blu-Ray With Scream Factory In July
Scream Factory recently announced its plans for a blu-ray release of the cult favorite horror/black comedy item Ravenous - and that's not the only 20th Century Fox horror release from 1999 that they have planned for this summer. July will see the release of Lake Placid, a giant alligator tale from erstwhile t.v. show creator David E. Kelley. This offbeat yet well-budgeted tale features an impressive cast: Bill Pullman, Bridget Fonda and Oliver Platt all appear in the film as well as Betty White in a pretty funny character role.
