I'm a bit disappointed that only the first is available as a steelbook. I don't really want the first as a steelie and the rest as regular BDs. So I'll probably go standard packaging for all 3, for the sake of uniformity.

What I think I'll do is grab this Steelie, and then get the Scream Factory double fearyre

British distributors Odeon Entertainment will bring to Blu-ray director Piers Haggard's cult horror thriller Blood On Satan's Claw (1971), starring Patrick Wymark, Linda Hayden, Barry Andrews. The preliminary release date set by the distributors is April 22.

In a 17th-Century English village, a ploughman discovers the skeletal remains of a demonic creature. Soon after the remains are discovered, they go missing again, which hampers the investigations of the local judge (Patrick Wymark). Meanwhile, strange events are beginning to occur in the village: a young woman inexplicably goes insane and her fiance is later found cutting off his own hand, believing it to have turned into a hideous claw. Then a cult of teenage devil-worshippers emerges, led by beautiful temptress Angel Blake (Linda Hayden), which involves children performing blood sacrifices to bring the skeletal demon back to life...

Special Features:
2012 Interview with Director Piers Haggard
Audio Commentary with Piers Haggard, Linda Hayden and Robert Wynne-Simmons
Audio Commentary with Mark Gatiss, Jeremy Dyson and Reece Sheersmith
Touching the Devil - The Making Of Blood on Satan's Claw

Wow amazing news on Satans Claw, especially the League of Gentlemen commentary which I've always wanted to hear.

Better cover than the Dutch BD I recently bought, and even though it's getting a release in Germany in the near future, I'll get this one. Since it's just been passed uncut.

Will this have the unrated extended cut like the forthcoming German disc?

No idea. All it says is passed with no cuts on the BBFC site.

I was under the impression it was to be released next Monday! I wonder if it's being delayed or if they have the wrong date.
