I've been doing my best to keep you guys up to date on the upcoming 4K restoration Blu-ray release of Clive Barker's RAWHEAD REX. While I'm not a huge fan (by any means) of the film, Barker's short story is one of my most favorite things in the world, so any Rawhead Rex love to spread is good by me!

As far as the 4K restoration Blu-ray goes today we got updates on the release via the Kino Lorber Facebook page, including the release date, artwork, and a sweet-ass list of bonus features!

RAWHEAD REX synopsis:

Ireland will never be the same after Rawhead Rex, a particularly nasty demon, is released from his underground prison by an unwitting farmer. The film follows Rex's cross country rampage, while a man struggles to stop it.
