Franc Roddham's 1985 gothic horror film, The Bride, is finally given the Blu-ray treatment from the good folks at Shout Factory.
Starring Sting as Dr. Frankenstein and Jennifer Beals as the titular "Bride", this is a somewhat different take on the classic material from Mary Shelley. It failed miserably at the box=office upon its release, and critics were less than kind. However, this undeniably campy and fun film has gained a cult audience over the years, who admire the handle of atmosphere in the film, as well as the unique take on a familiar story, which finds the so-called "monsters" in the film seeking love, independence, and self-worth in the world in which they were created.
The Blu-ray features an audio commentary from the director, two interview segments, and a trailer.
