David Cronenberg’s 1975 debut movie Shivers is getting a Walmart-exclusive SteelBook Blu-ray release in 2024.
Shivers SteelBook Blu-ray Details
The Vestron Video Collector’s Series release features an alternate green-hued take on the classic artwork, and extras such as commentary with David Cronenberg, and an interview with him and star Lynn Lowry.
The movie has the burgeoning building blocks for Cronenberg’s now distinct style that the Canadian director has cultivated for nearly five decades.
The story of Shivers sees a rogue parasite being unleashed upon a suburban high-rise apartment, causing all those it infects to become mindless sex fiends that only exist to seek out others to turn into the same thing.
Shivers was written and directed by David Cronenberg and stars Paul Hampton (Babylon 5), Joe Silver (Klute, Creepshow 2, Rabid), Lynn Lowry (The Crazies, Cat People), Allan Kolman (Se7en), and Barbara Steele (8 1/2, Black Sunday).
The Shivers SteelBook Blu-ray will be released via Walmart on March 12, 2024.
