Blacula and Scream, Blacula, Scream Double Feature Blu-ray Arrives This March

Today is a joyous day, as we have received word that not one but two Blaxploitation classics are hitting Blu-ray for the very first time! Brace yourselves my friends, as Blacula and Scream, Blacula, Scream are hitting a double feature Blu-ray this March 3, 2015, via Scream Factory. Read on for all the details.


“Set in 1780, Blacula is the tale of African Prince Mamuwalde (Marshall), who pays a visit to Count Dracula in Transylvania, seeking his support in ending slave trade. Instead, the evil count curses his noble guest and transforms him into a vampire! Released from his coffin nearly two centuries later by a pair of luckless interior decorators, Mamuwalde emerges as “Blacula,” one strange dude strollin’ the streets of L.A. on a nightly quest for human blood!”

“Blacula lives! This scintillating sequel, Scream, Blacula, Scream, pits voodoo power against vampire fury! Willis Daniels (Richard Lawson), the son of a late high priestess, seeks revenge on the cultists who have chosen his foster sister Lisa (Pam Grier) as their new leader. Hoping to curse Lisa, Willis unwittingly resurrects Blacula’s earthly remains – and unleashes the Prince of Darkness and his freaked-out army of the undead!”

Special Features:

  • New audio commentary on Blacula with author/film historian/filmmaker David F. Walker (Reflections on Blaxploitation: Actors and Directors Speak)
  • New interview with actor Richard Lawson (Scream, Blacula, Scream)
  • Theatrical Trailers
