The Infamous ‘80s Canadian Thriller 'BEYOND THE 7TH DOOR' Now On DVD For The First Time Ever from INTERVISION PICTURE CORP
Bizarre, low-budget slice of 80's Canuxploitation BEYOND THE 7TH DOOR (1987) arrives on DVD from Intervision Picture Corp. on Halloween! Also available as part of The Severin Films October Bundle which includes Beyond the Seventh Door DVD plus Devil's Rain [Blu-ray] with Limited Edition Slipcover and the cool Corbis Pendant!
BEYOND THE 7TH DOOR (1987)
This Halloween, Intervision Picture Corporation returns to the mysterious great white north, this time to unearth one of the strangest artifacts of the late 1980’s. BEYOND THE 7TH DOOR is a beguiling puzzle film in the vein of DEATH TRAP or THE LAST OF SHEILA, but with far fewer resources and a vastly more eccentric team of filmmakers.
More than 30 years later, it remains one of the most ambitious, sought-after and totally bizarre low-budget Canadian features of all: Yugoslavian-born actor Lazar Rockwood – in a notorious debut performance that still astounds Canuxploitation fans – is Boris, an ex-con and career thief who convinces his ex-girlfriend (Bonnie Beck) to help him rob her wealthy boss’ castle. But when Boris discovers that the eccentric millionaire has booby-trapped the building, they’ll have to survive six riddle-triggered rooms of homicidal mayhem in order to claim the treasure. Writer/director (and future best-selling ‘religious thriller’ author) B.D. Benedikt made his unforgettable filmmaking debut with this bottom-shelf VHS classic, now loaded with Special Features produced exclusively for its worldwide DVD premiere.
Special Features: - Audio Commentary with Writer/Director BD Benedikt and Actor Lazar Rockwood, moderated by Paul Corupe (Canuxploitation.com) - Beyond Beyond the 7th Door: Interviews with Writer/Director BD Benedikt, Actor Lazar Rockwood, and Canuxploitation.com's Paul Corupe - The King of Cayenne: An Appreciation of Legendary Toronto Eccentric Ben Kerr
