Elvira Mistress of the Dark UHD 4K Ultra HD 1988 Blu-ray Cassandra Peterson
The long-awaited 4K Ultra HD for Elvira: Mistress of the Dark has arrived!
Introducing Arrow Films' UHD 4K Limited Edition release for 1988's Elvira: Mistress of the Dark. Campy, quirky and stuffed to the brim with more double entendres than your average "carry on" movie, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark helped solidify the horror hostess (played by Cassandra Peterson) as a major pop culture icon, here owning every inch of the screen with her quick wit, sass, and of course, cleaving-enhancing gown!
Having just quit her job as a Los Angeles TV horror hostess, Elvira receives the unexpected news that she's set to inherit part of her great aunt Morgana's estate. Arriving in the small town of Fallwell, Massachusetts to claim her inheritance, Elvira receives a less than enthusiastic reception from the conservative locals - amongst them, her sinister uncle Vincent, who, unbeknownst to Elvira, is in fact an evil warlock secretly scheming to steal the old family spellbook for his own nefarious ends...
