Description
101 Films presents the Bob Clark Horror Collection: collecting for the first time Clark’s seminal early 70’s chillers Black Christmas, Children Shouldn’t Play with Dead Things, and Deathdream (aka Dead of Night), in a limited edition 3-disc set, complete with booklet and newly commissioned artwork.
Black Christmas
It’s time for Christmas break, and the sorority sisters make plans for the holiday, but the strange anonymous phone calls are beginning to put them on edge. When Clare disappears, they contact the police, who don’t express much concern. Meanwhile Jess is planning to get an abortion, but boyfriend Peter is very much against it. The police finally begin to get concerned when a 13-year-old girl is found dead in the park. They set up a wiretap to the sorority house, but will they be in time to prevent a sorority girl attrition problem?
Children Shouldn’t Play with Dead Things
Led by a mean-spirited director, a theatre troupe travels by boat to a small island for buried criminals. The group gets more than they bargained for when the dead rise from their graves. Can they stay put until daylight against the undead onslaught, or do they flee into the pitch-black night? Will anyone survive?
Deathdream
In this shattering variation on “The Monkey’s Paw”, grief-stricken suburban parents refuse to accept the news that their son Andy has been killed in Vietnam. But when Andy returns home soon after, something may be horribly wrong: Andy is alive and well… or is he?
