Amazon UK lists March 25, 2019, as the Blu-ray release date for Jen and Sylvia Soska‘s remake of David Cronenberg’s 1977 film Rabid. Scream Factory is infecting audiences here in the States and we’ll report the official release strategy when announced.
Laura Vandervoort (Jigsaw) stars as Rose, a demure seamstress who goes through a radical transformation after electing for plastic surgery following a disfiguring accident.
Ben Hollingsworth also stars as “Brad”, a fashion photographer with Hanneke Talbot (“Playing Dead”) portraying Rose’s best friend Chelsea; and Mackenzie Gray (“Legion”, “Riverdale”) is arrogant fashion designer “Gunter”. Rabid will also feature WWE superstars CM Punk as “Billy” and his wife, New York Times best-selling author AJ Mendez as “Kira”.
Thanks to Fabian M. for the hat tip.
