Blue Underground has announced that they will be bringing the complete, uncensored version of Jess Franco’s notorious horror film Night of the Blood Monster to 4K UHD Blu-Ray and Blu-Ray on March 26, 2024. Horror legend Christopher Lee (Lord of the Rings, Dracula, The Wicker Man) stars as Judge Jeffreys, the Lord Chief Justice of 17th century England, who used his power and influence to condemn women as witches for his own political and sadistic desires. Fueled by his obsession with a bar maiden (Maria Rohm), Jeffreys’ spree of violence and carnality culminates in what Lee described as “scenes of extraordinary depravity!” Featuring performances by Howard Vernon, Margaret Lee, Maria Schell, and Academy Award® nominee Leo Genn, Night of the Blood Monster is a mixture of horror, sexuality, and sadism that you won’t soon forget.
Blue Underground is proud to present the most complete and uncensored version of NIGHT OF THE BLOOD MONSTER (also known as THE BLOODY JUDGE) from a brand-new 2023 Dolby Vision HDR 4K master, painstakingly restored from various European vault elements featuring additional nudity, bloodshed, and depravity!

Synopsis: Christopher Lee (THE WICKER MAN) gives one of his most unforgettable performances as Judge Jeffreys, the infamous 17th Century witchfinder whose unholy obsession with a luscious wench (Maria Rohm of EUGENIE) fuels a jaw-dropping spree of torture, brutality and flesh-ripping perversion. Howard Vernon (SUCCUBUS), Margaret Lee (FIVE GOLDEN DRAGONS), Maria Schell (99 WOMEN) and Oscar® nominee Leo Genn (QUO VADIS) co-star in this landmark epic of sexual violence and sadism, complete with a superb score by Bruno Nicolai (COUNT DRACULA) and directed with spectacularly deviant glee by the one and only Jess Franco (VENUS IN FURS).
