Need a good scare with that homemade popcorn? The UK’s 2006 horror flick The Devil’s Chair is finally coming to DVD in the US on October 7th (from Simon Boyes and Adam Mason, Broken). Be warned, the trailer is gruesome.

The storyline? Four years after a murder involving a killer chair in the abandoned Blackwater asylum, a psychology prof and his students return to the scene with the accused killer searching for the truth (key words: occult mystery, blood-drenched, supernatural thriller). On the onset, it sounds like Matheson’s Hell House (and for that reason all the more worth renting).

The UK has been churning out some great horror movies over the last decade (Dog Soldiers, 28 Days Later). The movie’s official website is here.
