ROUND UP
es Craven basically disowned (Blu-ray, 16 September), his 1984 sequel to the gruelling horror about a family of cannibals. Featuring three returning cast, it gets one). Arrow Video’s restoration (RRP £29.99!) has a new commentary and Making Of, postcards and poster. A saying about turds and polish springs to mind. Also released in ’84, backwoods slasher (16 September, Blu-ray) sees three young couples terrorised by an axe-wielding wild man who was horribly burned as a child. Featuring so much wildlife footage you may wonder if David Attenborough had a hand in it, it’s pretty mediocre. Highlight: a sleeping bag suffocation. Lowlight: the banjo playing. Arrow’s two-disc set includes three different cuts. (out now, Blu-ray/DVD), the eighth run of the horror anthology show, sees back on form. Set in a post-nuke future, with the Antichrist as its antagonist, it brings back the witches from third season and revisits season one’s Murder House. Other treats include robots, cannibals and a Stevie Nicks cameo. Speaking of TV box sets: season one is also out now. Coming soon: season seven (16 September), season four (23 September), and season five (23 September).
