'The Haunting' remake lands 4K Blu-ray release from Scream Factory.
While genre fans are currently in the middle of a modern horror renaissance, more and more horror films from the late 90s and early 2000s are becoming cult hits. This includes the 1999 remake of The Haunting directed by Jan de Bont. Now the film based on the iconic 1959 novel The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson is coming to 4K Blu-ray, thanks to Scream Factory, on May 30.
The film, similar to the novel, follows four strangers who get trapped in the haunted Hill House mansion after a scientific experiment goes horribly wrong. What’s notable about this remake is its cast. The Haunting is filled with now A-list stars like Liam Neeson, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Owen Wilson, Lili Taylor, and Virginia Madsen.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY ‘The Haunting of Hill House’s History In terms of history, The Haunting remake is overshadowed by two major entities. The first one being the original 1963 film that’s considered by many horror enthusiasts to be one of the best haunted house films of all time.
Over the last decade, Flanagan has changed the horror game in so many brilliant ways, but that shouldn’t stop fans of that show to check out the 1999 film. It nowhere reaches the heights of the series, but it's vastly underrated and arguably the best film adaptation of Jackson’s ghastly story. It’s worth watching for the cast alone, but there are some great bits of atmosphere throughout that will make any horror fan smile.
When Does 'The Haunting' 4K Release? The Haunting 4K Blu-ray combo pack will be released by Scream Factory on May 30, for $29.99. The special features haven’t been announced yet, but like all Scream Factory releases, if you pre-order the film on the label’s website you’ll get a free poster featuring The Haunting’s original artwork. The trailer for the film can be viewed down below.
