In A Bucket of Blood, meek busboy Walter Paisley unexpectedly becomes the darling of a beatnik art community after a gruesome accident launches his artistic career. As his fame grows, Walter discovers that maintaining his newfound success requires increasingly horrifying acts, transforming this dark satire into one of Roger Corman's defining horror comedies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso included is Dementia 13, the feature directorial debut of Francis Ford Coppola, produced by Roger Corman. Set amid a wealthy family plagued by buried secrets, psychological instability, and brutal axe murders, the gothic thriller showcases the emerging filmmaker's command of atmosphere while complementing the satirical horror of A Bucket of Blood. Together, these two cult favorites offer an outstanding double feature that explores ambition, obsession, greed, madness, and murder from two distinct perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis special edition is loaded with newly produced supplements including the Ballyhoo Motion Pictures documentary Jack Hill on FilmGroup, a full-length audio commentary for A Bucket of Blood by Tom Weaver, a full-length commentary for Dementia 13 by Heath Holland, presentation of A Bucket of Blood in its original 4:3 aspect ratio, new essays by Tom Weaver covering both films, Trailers from Hell segments for each feature, and newly re-imagined theatrical trailers for both films.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased by Film Masters, this region-free Blu-ray presents these landmark cult classics in English, creating an essential collector's edition for fans of Roger Corman, Francis Ford Coppola, and classic American horror cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonus Materials\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew documentary, 'Jack Hill on FilmGroup' by Ballyhoo Motion Pictures\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull length commentary for A Bucket of Blood by Tom Weaver\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull length commentary for Dementia 13 by Heath Holland\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonus A Bucket of Blood in 4:3 aspect ratio\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew essays by Tom Weaver on both films\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrailers from Hell for A Bucket of Blood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrailers from Hell for Dementia 13\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRe-imagined theatrical trailer for A Bucket of Blood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRe-imagined theatrical trailer for Dementia 13\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSales Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003enew HD restoration\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Film Masters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41126881427505,"sku":null,"price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/9878\/2001\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_35417d21-7b50-4684-bf0e-81971d9ea298.jpg?v=1784487601","url":"https:\/\/openframemedia.co\/products\/a-bucket-of-blood-special-edition-film-masters-blu-ray","provider":"Open Frame Media","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
