Arrow Video, with
domestic sales and distribution expertise provided by MVD Entertainment Group,
has tabbed Jan. 9, 2018 as the street date for a new 4K restoration (from the
original camera negative) of writer/director Dario Argento’s 1971 giallo horror/mystery, The
Cat O’ Nine Tails.
Franco Arnò (played by
Karl Malden), a blind man, teams with an inquisitive reporter by the name of Carlo
Giordani (James Franciscus), to unravel a series of murders that seem connected
to research at the Terzi Institute. Who
is the killer? And why?
As with the good giallo
films of the period, The Cat O’ Nine Tails is a nifty
blend of horror and mystery. Stylish
murders and with a purpose!
Bonus goodies include a
newly-prepared commentary by critics Alan Jones and Kim Newman and new series
of video sessions with filmmaker Dario Argento, co-writer Dardano Sacchetti,
actress Cinzia De Carolis (as Lori, Karl Malden’s niece in the film) and
production manager Angelo Iacono.
Arrow Video is presenting
The
Cat O’ Nine Tails in both the original Italian-language version (with
English subtitles) and the English-dubbed theatrical version.
