Frank Henenlotter's 1982 horror film Basket Case has been slated for a Blu-ray release courtesy of Image Entertainment and Something Weird Video. A release date of September 27th has been confirmed along with an assortment of new special features.

Basket Case earned its reputation in the horror genre through its theatrical midnight movie screenings and popularity on VHS. It tells the story of Duane Bradley (Kevin Van Hentenryck) and his deformed siamese twin brother Belial, whom Duane was surgically separated from and now carries with him in a basket. In a bid for revenge, the two hunt down the doctors who performed the separation.

For its Blu-ray presentation, Basket Case will feature a 1:33:1 aspect ratio to faithfully replicate the 16mm stock it was filmed on. Image Entertainment will also include DTS HD Master Audio 5.1 for this release. Confirmed special features include:
New Video Introduction by Director Frank Henenlotter
Audio Commentary by Director Frank Henenlotter, Producer Edgar Ievins, and Actress Beverly Bonner
In Search of the Hotel Broslin: 2001 Video Short
Outtakes and Behind-the-Scenes Footage from Frank Henenlotter's Personal Collection
Two Theatrical Trailers
One TV Spot and Two Radio Spots
Gallery of Basket Case Exploitation Art and Behind-the-Scene Photos
A SRP of $17.97 has been set for Basket Case. Pre-orders are now up on Amazon.
