Blu-ray Desenlace fatal (Shallow Grave, 1987, Richard Styles)

Sue Ellen, Patty, Cindy y Rose están a punto de iniciar sus mejores vacaciones. Liberadas del ambiente de una escuela estricta, estas cuatro chicas van camino hacia Fort Lauderdale para destrozar el pueblo en unas vacaciones de primavera de lo más salvaje. A no ser que se mueran antes... Cuando las chicas pasan por Medley (Georgia, Estados Unidos) descubren que necesitan rápidamente una rueda de recambio.

Lo que comienza como una parada rutinaria pronto se convierte en un ejercicio de terror y supervivencia cuando Sue Ellen, accidentalmente, ve a un marido adúltero asesinar a su amante. Al darse cuenta de que alguien se ha convertido en testigo fatal de su crimen, el asesino se lanza en un frenesí de pánico salvaje y reclama las vidas de las primeras dos personas que ve: Rose y Cindy. Luego entierra los cuerpos en una zanja apartada en el bosque...

Salió en EEUU de la mano de Vinegar Syndrome. Nada de español.

Commentary #1 features director Richard Styles.

Commentary #2 features The Hysteria Continues.

"Looking for Magic" (14:42, HD) is an interview with director Richard Styles, who wasn't even supposed to helm "Shallow Grave," arriving for the Miami shoot as an executive producer. When the original director couldn't handle the job, Styles was pushed into position, only to realize how much he hated the screenplay. Changing the feature from an alien invasion picture to a thriller, Styles aimed for something along the lines of Alfred Hitchcock, pushing the writing in that direction. Casting is examined, though the interviewee is more interested in talking about an earlier production, "Ceasefire," which starred Don Johnson. Production challenges are recalled, and Styles goes into his focus on the set, trying to maintain control of storytelling while others deal with technical issues. Warehouse sets are analyzed, story points are recalled, and Styles shares his pride in the work, admitting he received some of his best reviews with "Shallow Grave."

"A Visual Storyteller" (13:30, HD) is an interview with writer George Fernandez, who shares a different take on what "Shallow Grave" was originally supposed to be, with his version meant to comment on Jim Crow laws of the south, focusing on the plight of an interracial couple. Script changes were in order, along with the loss of a directorial gig, handing responsibilities over to Richard Styles when an unhappy marriage prevented him from committing his life to the project. Fernandez goes into his career path and love of writing, offering tips to viewers looking to maintain inspiration. Not a whole lot is shared about "Shallow Grave" beyond an early confrontation with SAG strikers who worked to prevent dialogue from being recorded. The interviewee closes with an assessment of low-budget production achievements, marveling over the "democratization" of filmmaking with tools such as an iPhone.
