Arrow have officially announced Candyman. Happy #Fridaythe13th! To celebrate we’re revealing a sweet October treat... **Surprise announcement!** NEW UK TITLE: Candyman (Blu-ray) Newly restored in 2K, Candyman ingeniously reworks Clive Barker’s original short story “The Forbidden” into a modern horror parable Pre-order your copy via Arrow: https://bit.ly/2LfJyrZ Release date: 29 October Dare you say his name five times? From the chilling imagination of horror master Clive Barker (Hellraiser, Nightbreed), comes Candyman – arguably one of the greatest horror movies of the 1990s, now newly restored on Blu-ray. When grad student Helen Lyle (Virginia Madsen) begins working on a thesis looking at urban legends, she encounters the tale of the Candyman – the vengeful spirit of a hook-handed slave, who, it is said, can be summoned by saying his name five times in the mirror. As her research leads her into the bowels of Chicago’s deprived housing projects and deeper into the Candyman’s world, Helen learns that some legends are best left alone… Expertly directed by British filmmaker Bernard Rose and boasting an astounding score by composer Philip Glass, Candyman ingeniously reworks Clive Barker’s original short story “The Forbidden” (originally published as part of his Books of Blood collection) into a modern horror parable that remains as timely today as ever.

Arrow Academy "NEW US TITLE: Distant Voices, Still Lives (Blu-ray) An evocative account of working-class life in Liverpool gloriously restored in 4K! Release dates: 23 October Winner of the International Critics’ Prize at the 1988 Cannes Film Festival, Terence Davies’ feature debut heralded one of Britain’s finest filmmaking talents.

Arrow Academy "NEW UK TITLE: The Early Films of Olivier Assayas (Blu-ray) Two of Assayas’ early works, in the UK for the first time. Release dates: 8 October Now recognised as one of French cinema’s finest talents courtesy of such modern classics as Irma Vep, Carlos, Summer Hours and Clouds of Sils Maria, Olivier Assayas started out as critic and screenwriter before making his debut feature as director in 1986. The Early Films presents this work, Disorder, and his second feature, Winter’s Child, in the UK for the first time. Disorder concerns a group of friends in a post-punk band. When a robbery at a music store turns fatal, the resulting chaos threatens both their working relationship and their long-held friendships as they leave France to tour London and potentially make their big break. Released two years later, Winter’s Child presents a four-person, two-couple tragedy of passion. Natalia is pregnant, but the child’s father, Stéphane, doesn’t want to know and abandons her. He meets Sabine, a set designer, and falls in love – but she is struggling with her attachment to Bruno, an actor with whom she had a brief fling. SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS • Brand new 2K restorations of both films, supervised and approved by Olivier Assayas • High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentations • Original 2.0 Stereo soundtracks • Optional English subtitles • Interview with writer-director Oliver Assayas • Interview with the cast of Disorder, Ann-Gisel Glass, Lucas Belvaux, Wadeck Stanczak and Rémi Martin • Theatrical trailers • Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Matthew Griffin FIRST PRESSING ONLY: Illustrated collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the films by Noel Megahey and Glenn Kenny"
