On October 24th, SCREAMBOX is premiering the highly sought-after DOOR, an extremely rare home invasion slasher movie from 1988 that has never been screened outside of Japan and has just been remastered. The final 20 minutes are bonkers!
Following its premiere on SCREAMBOX, DOOR will make its way to Blu-ray this November from Terror Vision. You can pre-order it here.
In the film…
“A lonely housewife is held hostage in her own apartment by an increasingly deranged door-to-door salesman in this forgotten home invasion masterpiece.”
Directed by Banmei Takahashi, the story behind DOOR is extremely interesting.
Many of you may remember Director’s Company, a Japanese production company from 1982-1992 that was made up of many legends of Japanese cinema including Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Sogo Ishii, Shinji Somai, and others.
They made many amazing Japanese films but also broke ground for genre cinema in Japan including the cult classic Evil Dead Trap. Before Evil Dead Trap they made the first Giallo film in Japan… Door. Interestingly, Kiyoshi Kurosawa directed the film’s sequel!
Terror Vision is proud to present director Banmei Takahashi’s long lost Japanese giallo-esque horror film on disc for the first time in the US with a 2k transfer from the original camera negative!
