Death Row DVD Specs
Some of you know this movie under a different name "Haunted Prison" when it originally aired on SciFi. Now several months later Anchor Bay will be releasing the film under a new name Death Row on March 6th for a suggested retail price of $19.98.
Seeking to explore the bloody past of Isla del Roca Penitentiary after hearing a terrifying account from former prison guard John Elias (Stacy Keach) and a mysterious warning from a priest (Danny Trejo), filmmakers Keith (Kyle Schmid), Brian (Scott Whyte) and their production team descend into the abandoned prison to begin production on their documentary. Once inside, the crew finds that a gang of fugitives from a cop-killing robbery has taken refuge within the seemingly abandoned prison walls. Shortly after their discovery, mayhem erupts when the ghosts of dead prisoners begin killing their new guests. Soon the filmmakers and the fugitives find themselves locked together in a struggle for survival for their lives and souls.
The DVD will contain the following features:
- Widescreen Presentation (1.78:1), enhanced for 16x9 TVs
- “An Axe to Grind”: The Making of Death Row
