Kill Katie Malone Haunts DVD/Blu-Ray Discs and Dean Cain December 13th

Kill Katie Malone was picked up by American World Pictures in October of 2010 for markets. Recently, Phase 4 Films acquired video-on-demand rights for this title for a June 1st release. Now Phase 4 Films is also set to release this horror title on DVD and Blu-Ray December 13th. Dean Cain stars as a college professor, but "he is only in the film briefly" (Horror Talk). Cain's character Robert tries to save his pupils from a malevolent spirit, who has been released by a cursed box. Remember folks, don't buy haunted items on the internet! Special features for the release are sparse with only a trailer. However, this release will be for DVD and Blu-ray formats in both Canadian and US markets.

There have been a few early reviews of this title. One review at Geek Tyrant by critic Brian S. talks of the "enjoyable twists." Steve Pattee notices "creepy elements," but states that the script made the film forgettable (Horror Talk). As well, as noticed by this film fan, introducing a headliner e.g. Dead Cain for only a few scenes is often a tactic used by smaller horror films to draw audiences in, while using a bait and switch strategy. The headliner will be in the earlier parts of the film, but then removed because of the high finances required to hold an A-B list name in more scenes. This critic cannot tell if that is the case here, as the film has not been seen on 28DLA. So, let us be optimistic and hope that Kill Katie Malone offers more scares than foibles and a satisfying film, as the release comes in just a few months. As well, this title will be reviewed on 28DLA in about a week. Enjoy the thrilling trailer below.
