Basket Case - Limited Edition (4K Ultra HD) (Import)

Duane Bradley (Kevin Van Hentenryck) and his brother Belial are very close. So close in fact that Duane carries Belial - his deformed and twisted mutant Siamese twin - with him in a wicker basket wherever he goes, communicating with him telepathically and generally helping him get along in a cruel and heartless world. The two plan to wreak revenge on the surgeons who, at their father's insistence, separated them years before, but Duane becomes sidetracked when he falls in love. 4K restoration from the original 16mm negative by MoMA4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible)Original uncompressed PCM mono audioOptional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingAudio commentary with writer/director Frank Henenlotter and star Kevin VanHentenryckArchival audio commentary with Frank Henenlotter, producer Edgar Ievins, actor Beverly Bonner and filmmaker Scooter McRaeBasket Case 3-1/2: An Interview with Duane Bradley - short film by Frank HenenlotterMe and the Bradley Boys - interview with actor Kevin VanHentenryckA Brief Interview with Director Frank Henenlotter - a strange 2017 interview with the directorSeeing Double: The Basket Case Twins - interview with actors Florence and Maryellen SchultzBlood, Basket and Beyond - interview with actor Beverly BonnerThe Latvian Connection - featurette including interviews with producer Edgar Ievins, casting person/actor Ilze Balodis, associate producer/special effects artist Ugis Nigals and Belial performer Kika NigalsBelial Goes to the Drive-In - interview with film critic Joe Bob BriggsBasket Case at MoMA - footage from the 2017 restoration premiereWhat's in the Basket? - feature-length documentary covering the three films in the Basket Case seriesIn Search of the Hotel Broslin - archival location featuretteThe Frisson of Fission: Basket Case, Conjoined Twins, and 'Freaks' in Cinema - video essay by Travis CrawfordSlash of the Knife (1976, 30 mins) - short made by Frank Henenlotter featuring many of the same actors from Basket Case, including optional audio commentary with Frank Henenlotter and playwright Mike BencivengaBasket Case and Slash of the Knife outtakesBelial's Dream (2017, 5 mins) - animated short by filmmaker Robert MorganExtensive image galleriesTrailers, TV & radio spotsReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Sara DeckDouble-sided fold-out poster featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Sara DeckCollector's booklet featuring writing on the film by Michael Gingold and a Basket Case comic strip by artist Martin Trafford
