4K X FOUR

A haunted house tale with the ghost swapped for a zombie, Lucio Fulci’s 1981 horror (OUT NOW) sees a family move into a New England mansion (OUT NOW) sees Nicole Kidman’s character convinced her country house is haunted after her daughter claims visitations from a boy, his parents, and a blind woman. The big twist is a doozy! New bonuses: 50-minute doc “Looking Back At The Others”, and a bit on the score. We said: “A supernatural tale cut from crystal, finely hewn and sharp as a razor.” Mia Farrow’s mother-to-be is the target of a Satanic conspiracy in 1968 classic (OUT NOW). No new bonuses – just a 23-minute doc shot during filming and a 2000 retrospective. We said: “Farrow’s quietly desperate performance gives its true horror.” Finally, Dudley Moore’s elf gets caught up in a toy company’s machinations in 1985’s (13 November). A cheesy, overblown affairr, it rather drags; viewers of a certain age may enjoy spotting Christopher Ryan and Don Estelle as elves, though.
