Nowadays if something goes wrong on a college campus, the students are supposedly alerted on texts, auto phone calls and posts on social media sites. The students can take precautions to avoid being the next victims. But in 1978 students had no real emergency alert outside of waiting two days for the school paper to come out. Black Mass is a movie based on a true story abou those times when you hoped someone called your landline when you were in the dorm because you didn’t even have an answering machine or a roomie who liked to take messages. These students of ’78 are doomed. Black Mass arrives on Blu-Ray and DVD next month. Here’s the press release from Cleopatra Entertainment:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Black Mass
2/27/24
On February 27th, Cleopatra Entertainment brings the chilling true crime drama The Black Mass to Blu-ray and DVD.
Inspired by actual events, the film takes place over the course of 24 hours and recounts the grisly murders that occurred over winter of 1978, when a serial killer attacked multiple victims on an undisclosed college campus. The film, which premiered at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, marks the directorial debut of award-winning actor/producer Devanny Pinn (Frost, The Dawn).
A brutal and unflinching look at a terrifying rampage, The Black Mass takes a new perspective on the tropes of the serial killer biopic, giving voice to the ones who rarely have one: the killer’s victims. Featuring performances by Jeremy London (Mallrats), Nicky Whelan (Hall Pass), Kathleen Kinmont (Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers), Lisa Wilcox (Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master), and Susan Lanier (The Hills Have Eyes).
