Orphan arrives on Blu-ray in May

Disc Announcements, News

The press release from Scream Factory doesn’t want to reveal much of the plot to Orphan. I won’t either if you haven’t had a chance to watch the film from 2009. I will tell you that it stars Vera Farmiga, Peter Sarsgaard, Isabelle Fuhrman & CCH Pounder. I didn’t spoil the movie. Here’s the press release from Scream Factory that’s also spoiler free:
