Hollywood Classics is bring back to UK cinemas Tod Browning's controversial film Freaks (1932). According to preliminary information, a new DCP (Digital Cinema Package) will be screened in select cinemas across the country this June.
Hollywood Classics: "Under our relationship with certain studios, we can create DCPs for selected features that we feel will be of particular interest to a discerning audience.
Tod Browning's Freaks is widely considered of great cinematic importance, reflecting the macabre historical fascination of travelling freak shows - however the feature isn't widely available on home entertainment or TV/VOD in the UK.
For that reason alone we feel the cinema-going customers deserve the opportunity to watch it again. Perhaps audiences will draw parallels with a current fascination for the numerous TV documentaries that follow those living with disabilities (eg, BodyShock, Extraordinary People, The Undateables)."
At the moment, it is unknown whether the film will also transition to Blu-ray.
