In September of this year, Scorpion Releasing and Katarina’s Nightmare Theater will distribute two horror flicks that haven’t seen the light of day on DVD until now: the 1981 slasher FINAL EXAM and the 1976 demon baby melodrama THE DEVIL WITHIN HER. Who isn’t down for these? Don’t want to know ya.
“Katarina’s Nightmare Theater” is a new line of horror DVDs hosted by actress, and former WWE and now TNA star, Katarina Leigh Waters, as she introduces a series of cult films, many of them for the first time on DVD.
The synopsis for THE DEVIL WITHIN HER (aka I DON’T WANT TO BE BORN): A male baby is born with an in-built hatred of people. For his parents, Lucy and Gino (Joan Collins and Ralph Bates), his hatred is particularly strong and soon his strength has increased to almost super-human proportions. As he continues to inflict injury, doctors are baffled as to the cause. But a nun (Eileen Atkins) is convinced that the baby is possessed. Initially dismissed by the medical establishment, the events take such a murderous turn that few can afford to ignore the nun’s warnings.
The DVD’s special features:
– Play with or without Katarina’s Nightmare Theater
-16×9 widescreen
– Interview with star John Steiner

As for FINAL EXAM, here’s the synopsis: At Lanier College, the semester is almost over. Exam week is coming to a close when some upper classmen play a prank by staging a phony terrorist attack. But the next excitement in the school won’t be a prank. It’s something a lot more final than an exam. Students are falling prey to the knife-wielding maniac who is hell bent on making sure that school is out… forever! Now watch the slasher classic in an all new HiDef master from the original camera negatives! FINAL EXAM is back, with a vengeance!
