"Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer"



According to Home Media Magazine, Anchor Bay has announced Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer for an October 7 DVD release.

The plot synopsis is as follows:

As a child Jack Brooks witnessed the brutal murder of his family. Now a young man he struggles with a pestering girlfriend, therapy sessions that resolve nothing, and night classes that barely hold his interest. After unleashing an ancient curse, Jack's Professor undergoes a transformation into something not-quite- human, and Jack is forced to confront some old demons... along with a few new ones.

Early word via the festival circuit is very good. Hopefully, this will get noticed in the overstuffed October. Note to studios: there are other months in which a good horror movie can do well, either on DVD or in theaters.
