It was just yesterday that one of my co-workers alerted me to the fact that Shout Factory had plans to release a slew of Roger Corman classics on DVD and Blu-ray. Today we have word on the first title to get the hi def treatment courtesy of Hi Def Digest and it's Corman's 1978 killer fish flick (Directed by Joe Dante and written by John Sayles) Piranha.
Yes folks, Piranha will be given the Blu-ray treatment on April 6th 2010. No word on specs or supplements, but it's worth noting that HD Digest is indeed listing a Blu-ray sized MSRP of $27.99, so here's hoping for one heck of a new hi-def transfer and lots of goodies to go along with it. Looking forward to the other Corman titles to be announced, we'll keep digging for you.
