Black Sunday

Anton van Beek  |  Mar 31, 2013

Italian horror classic rises from the grave to haunt your home cinema in high-definition

This beautifully restored release of Mario Bava's 1960 horror debut Mask of Satan is yet more proof that there are very few other labels that treat cult films with as much care as Arrow Video. Its HD platter kicks off with both the uncut 87-minute version under its original title and the 83-minute US re-edit (re-titled Black Sunday). Adding to the comprehensive feel of the package is the inclusion of Italian and English language tracks for Mask of Satan, and extras including an audio commentary, the complete 1956 film I Vampiri (in SD) and a 54-minute trailer reel for Bava's other work.
