2004 SF IndieFest alum, THE HALFWAY HOUSE soon to be available on DVD

BV Entertertainment Announces DVD Release of THE HALFWAY HOUSE

North Hollywood, CA June 15, 2005
August 23, 2005, Skouras/Ventura will release
Kenneth J. Hall's horror/exploitation/comedy THE
HALFWAY HOUSE on DVD, the first feature on BV
Entertainment's Fright Film Factory label. There
will be both an R-rated and an unrated director's
cut available at major rental and retail chains
throughout the US and Canada.

The movie has already attained a strong fan
following through festival screenings and received 4
1/2 out of 5 stars from Film Threat. Starring cult
queen Mary Woronov (ROCK N' ROLL HIGH SCHOOL, EATING
RAOUL) as an evil nun, it satirizes drive-in cinema
from women-in-prison films to slasher flicks.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Both DVD versions will include a trailer and the
music video "Halfway to Hell" by Insecto Circus.
Both will be widescreen 1.85:1 and Dolby Digital 5.1
stereo surround sound. The unrated cut will include
additional features such as an audio commentary
track by writer/director Kenneth J. Hall and
producer Ed Polgardy, deleted scenes, and a
making-of documentary entitled "Gut-Eating Monsters
from Hell."
