Got a press release today from the fine folks at TLA Video heralding the return of their Danger After Dark collection of DVD’s. I like what these folks are lining up to send our way. Here is the press release, read on and rejoice:
TLA Releasing launches a new look for DANGER AFTER DARK, the label completely devoted to showcasing cutting-edge cult favorites from around the world, with a Limited Edition Collector’s Box loaded with blood and mayhem. With a trio of action-packed cult favorites from Japan (Suicide Club,, 2LDK and Moon Child), the specially packaged box will become a hot collectible for film lovers.
DANGER AFTER DARK re-appears to the TLA family of releasing labels after the recent announcement that TLA and Tartan have ended their distribution agreement. “We are excited to return to releasing some of our favorite types of films,” says Raymond Murray, President of TLA Releasing. “Horror, cult and action films from Asia are great, but what’s truly missing in the marketplace is representation from other countries. So our label will be acquiring exciting, cutting-edge films from around the world for dedicated cult film enthusiasts and collectors. Feed (Australia), Next Door (Norway), The Wedding Party (Germany) and Evil (Greece) are intense, bloody and entertaining as their U.S. and Japanese counterparts. Why limit ourselves to one specific region when the rest of the world is creating killer films?”
BOX SET: The retail price for DANGER AFTER DARK Limited Edition Collector’s Box is $29.99 and the street date is June 27, 2006. Newly remastered anamorphic transfers of 2LDK and Suicide Club along with optional English subtitles for 2LDK have been added.

FEED (2005, Australia) This thriller follows a cop hunting a cyber-predator suspected of force-feeding obese women to death. Street date: July 18
EVIL (2005, Greece) Greece’s first zombie movie is an apocalyptic bloodbath filled with tense thrills. Street Date: August 22
