Killer Dames: Two Gothic Chillers by Emilio P. Miraglia

At the height of the Italian giallo boom in the early 1970s, scores of filmmakers turned their hand to crafting their own unique takes on these lurid murder-mystery thrillers. This limited edition double pack features two distinctive offerings by Emilio P. Miraglia, which meld twisty whodunit narratives with gothic chills.In The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave, troubled aristocrat Alan Cunningham (Anthony Steffen, Django the B*stard), haunted by the death of his first wife Evelyn, tries to move on by marrying the seductive Gladys (Marina Malfatti, All the Colours of the Dark). Marital bliss is short-lived, however, as various relatives meet untimely and gruesome deaths, prompting speculation that a vengeful Evelyn has risen from the grave...Meanwhile, in The Red Queen Kills Seven Times, an age-old family curse hits sisters Kitty (Barbara Bouchet, Milano Calibro 9) and Franziska (Marina Malfatti) following the death of their grandfather Tobias (Rudolf Schündler, The Exorcist, Suspiria). Every hundred years, so the legend goes, the bloodthirsty Red Queen returns and claims seven fresh victims. Was Tobias just the first... and are Kitty and Franziska next?With both films making their worldwide Blu-ray debuts in stunning new 2K restorations, there has never been a better time to explore these little-seen giallo gems!LIMITED EDITION CONTENTSLimited Edition box set (3000 copies) containing The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave and The Red Queen Kills Seven TimesBrand new 2K restorations of the films from the original camera negativesHigh Definition Blu-ray (1080p) and Standard Definition DVD presentationsOriginal Italian and English soundtracks in mono audio (lossless DTS-HD Master Audio on the Blu-ray Discs)Newly translated English subtitles for the Italian soundtracksOptional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing for the English soundtracksLimited Edition 60-page booklet containing new writing by James Blackford, Kat Ellinger, Leonard Jacobs and Rachael NisbetTHE NIGHT EVELYN CAME OUT OF THE GRAVENew audio commentary by Troy HowarthExclusive introduction by actress Erika BlancWriter Stephen Thrower on The Night Evelyn Came Out of the GraveThe Night Erika Came Out of the Grave exclusive interview with Erika BlancThe Whip and the Body archival interview with Erika BlancStill Rising from the Grave archival interview with production designer Lorenzo BaraldiOriginal Italian and US theatrical trailersReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Gilles VranckxTHE RED QUEEN KILLS SEVEN TIMESNew audio commentary by Alan Jones and Kim NewmanWriter Stephen Thrower on The Red Queen Kills Seven TimesArchival introduction by production/costume designer Lorenzo BaraldiDead à Porter archival interview with Lorenzo BaraldiRounding Up the Usual Suspects archival interview with actor Marino MaséIf I Met Emilio Miraglia Today archival featurette with Erika Blanc, Lorenzo Baraldi and Marino MaséMy Favourite...
