Mansion Of The Doomed Blu-Ray
101 Films presents the gruesome exploitation thriller Mansion of the Doomed (1976), available on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK. Mansion of the Doomed (aka The Eyes of Doctor Chaney & House of Blood and known as The Terror of Doctor Chaney and Massacre Mansion in the UK), which was seized and confiscated under the Obscene Publications Act during the British video panic of the 1980s, was the first horror film from legendary producer Charles Band's Full Moon Features and is presented here in all its dirty, uncut glory. Richard Basehart (Being There, TV's Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea) plays the lead role as the mad Dr. Leonard Chaney, a brilliant surgeon who compulsively kidnaps people, rips out their eyeballs, and dumps their bleeding bodies in a filthy basement cage. His master plan? To transplant these badly damaged eyeballs into the skull of his daughter, who herself was blinded in a tragic accident several years earlier.SPECIAL FEATURES The Charles Band Empire - A new documentary about the career of horror legend Charles Band.
