It is unusual for a film to cross genres but the 1981 action flick Raw Force crosses over into the horror genre in more ways than one. Today Horror Society caught news that the film will be getting a blu release. Check out the press release below:
Welcome to Warrior’s Island, burial ground of disgraced martial arts masters! When the Burbank Kung Fu Club travels to this mysterious island, they quickly find themselves facing the bloodthirsty vengeance of flesh ripping kung fu fighting zombies, gun-toting white slave traders and a band of strange monks, who may be the only key to explaining the madness. Edward Murphy’s RAW FORCE is a virtual smorgasbord of over the top sleaze — mixing zombies, cannibals, outrageous action, gore, copious amounts of nudity and starring exploitation greats, Cameron Mitchell and Vic Diaz.
Vinegar Syndrome presents this quintessential piece of early 80’s trash newly restored from the original camera negative and on blu-ray for the first time!
Bonus Features: New 2k restoration from the 35mm camera negative, Original Theatrical Trailer, Video Featurette: DESTINATION: WARRIORS ISLAND (The Making of Raw Force), Audio Interview w/ Finishing Editor Jim Wynorski.
This release is October 7th so check it out. This film has EVERYTHING!
