The Entertainment Factor: New on Blu-ray: BLOODLINE (1979) Starring Audrey Hepburn, Ben Gazzara, James Mason, Omar Sharif and Romy Schneider

Product Description: After extremely wealthy pharmaceutical tycoon Sam Roffe is murdered while skiing in the Alps, his daughter Elizabeth is shocked to learn that, per her late father's will, she has been appointed to take over his drug manufacturing empire. Equally shocked are her scheming relatives, each saddled with financial burdens they hoped would be alleviated through a significant company sale. But when Elizabeth vows to do everything in her power to resurrect the ailing company, thus preventing the sale, it's not long before a mysterious, black-clad assailant begins killing anyone helping Elizabeth to achieve her goal. All the while, dead bodies of nude young women are washing up along the river banks of Europe, victims of a savage, snuff film-making serial killer…

Boasting an astonishing cast headlined by Oscar® winners Audrey Hepburn (Breakfast at Tiffany’s) and Beatrice Straight (Network), Oscar® nominees James Mason (North by Northwest) and Omar Sharif (Lawrence of Arabia), plus Euro Cult actresses Irene Papas (Don’t Torture a Duckling) and Romy Schneider (La Piscine), director Terence Young’s (Wait Until Dark) adaptation of Sidney Sheldon’s international bestseller, BLOODLINE is an epic, jet-set giallo filmed across the world which places its A-list cast at odds with a sordid sex killer. Featuring a lush score by Ennio Morricone (The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly) and all strikingly photographed by three-time Oscar winner Freddie Young (Doctor Zhivago), this unbelievable big-budget exploitation gem at last comes to Blu-ray from Vinegar Syndrome Labs, newly restored in 4K from its 35mm original negative and featuring the disc debut of its majorly extended alternate TV version!
