Unearthed Films is bringing Izô Hashimoto’s EVIL DEAD TRAP 2: HIDEKI to Blu-ray in 2022! I haven’t seen it, myself, but it looks bonkers and brutal and based on the trailer, I really want to check it out!
You need to see this for yourself!
EVIL DEAD TRAP 2: HIDEKI Synopsis
A killer is on the loose in Japan. Young women are being horribly mutilated. Aki, a young woman who works as a film projectionist, is haunted by a childlike ghost. Her girlfriend Emi is a TV news reporter covering the horrible mutilations. Emi introduces Aki to Kurahashi, a married man with a haunted past. Everyone involved has a dark secret and something evil is taking control of them. They are pawns in a game being played by forces beyond their understanding. This eerie descent into madness takes us on a journey into the abyss and the terrible truth is finally revealed!
Izô Hashimoto directed the film from a screenplay written alongside Chiaki Konaka. It stars Shoko Nakajima, Rie Kondoh, and Shirô Sano. I’m not sure if the films are related, but this 1992 release appears to be at least a pseudo-sequel to 1988’s Evil Dead Trap. But if you’re a fan, you already know that.
What a great way to celebrate the 30th anniversary!
We don’t have the official street date yet. The press release just says “Coming to Blu-ray in 2022.” As soon as we know more, we’ll let you know. In the meantime, you may want to follow @Unearthedfilms on Twitter (and follow us @PopHorrorNews while you’re at it)!
