Stars: Charles Klausmeyer, Mark Kinsey Stephenson, Alexandra Durrell, Laura Albert, Eben Ham, Blane Wheatley, Mark Parra, Delbert Spain, Colin Cox, Paul Farmer, Katrin Alexandre | Written and Directed by Jean-Paul Oullette
Written and directed by Jean-Paul Ouellette, based on the story from legendary horror author H.P. Lovecraft, The Unnamable is one of those films that passed me by growing up. I knew about the film, mainly thanks to the 1992 sequel – released in the UK as The Unnamable Returns – which was heavily, and I do mean heavily, promoted upon it’s release. Hell, it seemed like every movie magazine I read (remember those days?) had ads for The Unnamable Returns and every VHS rental had a trailer for the movie. But at the time I could never track down the original film and I never caught the film on DVD… So this Blu-ray release, from Unearthed Films, is a first-time watch for me.

Lovecraft, The Unnamable is finally making its way to Blu-ray and DVD October 23rd from Unearthed Films, whose output is mostly known for being on the more “extreme” side (check out our reviews of some of Unearthed’s previous releases here), but who are moving into more mainstream fare via their new Unearthed Classics imprint.
College students from Miskatonic University who retreat to an early 18th-century mansion for a weekend of lust are stalked by a fatalistic female. The demon delights in tearing the limbs off her human victims to carry out a centuries-old family curse.
Bloody graphic violence and nudity is combined with some campy comedy in this stone-cold classic of the Dtv era, which has now been restored as a beautiful 4k scan and color corrected from the original negative, the 1st 2,000 units...
