Announcement: Special Features for Scream Factory's Bubba Ho-Tep Blu-ray

Scream Factory has been on a roll this year and it looks like they aren't going to stop any time soon. One of the blus announced at the San Diego Comic Con this past July, Bubba Ho-Tep has been near the top of the wish lists of many fans.

Movie Synopsis
"A fiendishly funny comedy horror." – BBC.com

Bruce Campbell "gives his greatest and most entertaining performance to date" (Premiere) as an aging and cantankerous "Elvis" in this "zinger-filled crowd-pleaser" (The Hollywood Reporter) from writer-director Don Coscarelli! When mysterious deaths plague a Texas retirement home, it's up to its most sequined senior citizen to take on a 3,000-year-old Egyptian mummy with a penchant for cowboy boots, bathroom graffiti and sucking the souls from the barely living!
