the-living-dead-at-manchester-morgue-new-on-bluray

Product Description: A strange twist of fate brings two young travelers, George (Ray Lovelock, THE CASSANDRA CROSSING) and Edna (Christine Galbo, THE HOUSE THAT SCREAMED), to a small town where an experimental agricultural machine may be bringing the dead back to life! As zombies infest the area and attack the living, a bullheaded detective (Academy Award ® nominee Arthur Kennedy, PEYTON PLACE) thinks the couple is Satanists responsible for the local killings. George and Edna have to fight for their lives, and prove their innocence as they try and stop the impending zombie apocalypse!

THE LIVING DEAD AT MANCHESTER MORGUE (aka LET SLEEPING CORPSES LIE and DON'T OPEN THE WINDOW) is a gory horror tale from Spanish director Jorge Grau and widely considered to be one of the best zombie films ever made. Beautifully restored in 4K from the original camera negative, Synapse Films presents the film for the first time ever on Blu-ray with the true original English theatrical mono mix and the real opening and closing credit sequences intact.

This three-disc, Limited Collector's Edition contains one 1080p Blu-ray, one DVD, one CD soundtrack and a collector's booklet, all in collectible Blu-ray Steelbook ® packaging with a special slipcover and brand-new artwork from Wes Benscoter. This limited Steelbook ® is one pressing only!
