Carrying a mysterious wicker basket wherever he goes, Duane Bradley checks into a flea-bag hotel in New York’s Times Square. What’s in the basket, you ask? Why, it’s Duane’s hideously misshapen Siamese twin brother, Belial, who seems to wield some sort of odd control over his more normal looking brother. Together, they’re in town to hunt down and wreak havoc on the sick surgeons who separated them, but this isn’t your normal revenge flick.
With memorably gruesome scenes - such as the screaming woman with the scalpels stuck in her face - and some seriously disturbing stop-motion animation, Frank Henenlotter's Basket Case is one of the most beloved, cheerfully demented cult classicks of all time. And now, for the very first time, Basket Case has been remastered in High Definition, making Belial look even ghastlier than ever before!
Bonus Features include:
– New Full-Frame HD Transfer Preserving the Original 16mm Camera Ratio
– New Video Introduction by Director Frank Henenlotter
– Audio Commentary by Director Frank Henenlotter, Producer Edgar Ievins, and Actress Beverly Bonner
