The gory ghosts of Hollywood’s Golden Era return from the grave craving bloody revenge, in Norman Thaddeus Vane’s 1983 shocker Frightmare, coming to Blu-ray in a Tromatic Special Edition!

Following the death of legendary horror actor Conrad Radzoff (Ferdy Mayne, Conan the Destroyer), a group of overzealous drama students steal his corpse from his crypt and take it to the decrepit haunted house where his finest fright films were made. As the night goes on, the students learn the true meaning of terror, with Conrad’s vengeful spirit taking them out one by one.

Featuring some wild special effects by Chuck E. Stewart (Critters, The X Files, Bruce Almighty) and early performances by Jeffrey Combs (Re-Animator, The Frighteners), Nina Talbot (Night Shift, Puppet Master II) and Scott Thomson (Police Academy I-IV), Frightmare is a dementedly bloody terror trip!
