Last Slate Video Announces Hell House LLC UK Blu-ray Debut and The House on Sorority Row World-Premiere 4K
Last Slate Video has unveiled three new physical-media releases for the remainder of 2026, and there is plenty here for horror collectors to get excited about. Leading the announcement are Stephen Cognetti’s modern found-footage favourite Hell House LLC, which will receive its first UK Blu-ray release on 26 October, and Mark Rosman’s 1982 slasher The House on Sorority Row, which makes its worldwide 4K UHD debut on 7 December. The label is also branching beyond horror with Liverpool-set crime comedy Semolina Pilchard, arriving on Limited Edition Blu-ray on 5 October.
All three are being treated as collector-focused releases rather than straightforward discs in boxes. Newly commissioned artwork, posters, postcards and extensive bonus features feature across the slate, while customers buying directly from Last Slate Video will receive an exclusive limited-edition magnet for the corresponding film while stocks last.
Hell House LLC Finally Comes to UK Blu-ray
The big October horror release is Hell House LLC, Stephen Cognetti’s 2015 found-footage film centred upon the disastrous opening night of a Halloween haunted attraction at the Abaddon Hotel. What begins as documentary footage investigating the tragedy gradually reveals recordings made by the attraction’s crew before opening night, with increasingly unsettling events occurring as they prepare the supposedly abandoned building for paying customers.
Since its original release, Hell House LLC has grown into a cult favourite among found-footage audiences, with the Abaddon Hotel becoming the centre of an expanding series of films. Last Slate Video’s edition marks the first UK Blu-ray release of the original film, and importantly, it is region free. Both the standard version of Hell House LLC and the Director’s Cut are included.
The Limited Edition comes with an O-card featuring newly commissioned artwork by Joaquin Gonzalez, a reversible sleeve, reversible poster and four postcards. The disc supplements include Stephen Cognetti’s director’s commentary, behind-the-scenes material, deleted scenes, cast auditions, location scouting footage and improv scenes. There is also a new feature entitled From Cannibals to Hell Houses: The Story of Found Footage Horror, alongside an LSV Movie Night presentation hosted by Kelsey Dee.
For a film so closely associated with streaming and the modern resurgence of found footage, finally having a dedicated UK Blu-ray edition feels overdue. It arrives at an appropriate time too, with the 26 October release date putting the Abaddon Hotel back on UK shelves just days before Halloween.
The House on Sorority Row Makes Its Worldwide 4K Debut
If Hell House LLC represents a modern cult success, Last Slate Video’s December release goes straight back to the golden age of the American slasher. Mark Rosman’s The House on Sorority Row is coming to 4K UHD for the first time anywhere in the world, with a Collector’s Edition arriving on 7 December.
Released in 1982, Rosman’s film follows seven sorority sisters preparing for a final graduation party. When their strict house mother, Mrs Slater, threatens their plans, the women devise a prank intended to frighten her. It goes disastrously wrong, leaving them with a terrible decision to make just as their party is about to begin. Before long, somebody armed with Mrs Slater’s distinctive cane begins stalking the house and its occupants.
The film stars Kate McNeil, Eileen Davidson and Harley Jane Kozak, with Richard Band providing its memorable score, performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Arriving during the extraordinary early-1980s slasher boom, The House on Sorority Row has endured as one of the period’s cult favourites, combining the familiar ingredients of the cycle with Rosman’s stylish direction and a mystery built around the identity of its killer.
Last Slate Video is giving the UHD premiere a substantial package. The Collector’s Edition contains an exclusive 60-page book, a slipcase featuring the original artwork, a reversible poster, four postcards and a reversible sleeve featuring newly commissioned artwork from Bayarmagnai Avirmed. That alternative artwork has an especially interesting connection to the film itself: it is based upon an original poster concept devised by Rosman in 1982 which was rejected by the studio and never used as the theatrical poster. Forty-four years later, Avirmed has finally turned Rosman’s idea into finished artwork.
The announced extras include a new interview with Mark Rosman, The House on Sorority Row: After 4 Decades, a retrospective on the golden age of the slasher, the theatrical trailer, original television spots, the original pre-credit sequence, alternate-ending storyboards and an LSV Movie Night presentation with Kelsey Dee. Last Slate Video also says further extras remain to be announced.
For slasher collectors, however, the headline is straightforward: after more than four decades, The House on Sorority Row is finally entering the 4K era.
Something Completely Different With Semolina Pilchard
Horror dominates the announcement, but Last Slate Video’s October slate also includes something very different. Mike Clarke’s Liverpool-set crime comedy Semolina Pilchard arrives on Limited Edition Blu-ray on 5 October, bringing contemporary independent British cinema into the label’s growing catalogue.
The film follows Clara, who returns to Liverpool after learning that her estranged father Gerry is terminally ill. Her arrival reignites family tensions, particularly with her sister Danika, who eventually hires an assassin named Rosie to remove Clara from the equation. Running alongside the family conflict are Max and his gang of animal-mask-wearing criminals, whose own activities eventually collide with the rest of the characters. The ensemble includes Sarah-Louise Chadwick, Sophia Leanne Kelly, Alina Allison, Macaulay Cooper, Joe McGann, Louis Emerick, Gabriella Tavini and Jack Ryder, with appearances from Ricky Tomlinson and Tina Malone.
The region-free BD50 release includes 1080p Full HD presentation, 5.1 and 2.0 audio and English, French, German and Spanish subtitles. Physical extras include newly commissioned Studio Gerrard artwork, an O-card, reversible sleeve, reversible poster and four postcards, while the disc contains behind-the-scenes material, interviews, commentary, deleted scenes, LSV Movie Night and the short film Make Believe.
Three More Collector’s Editions From Last Slate Video
The three releases give Last Slate Video a particularly varied autumn and winter line-up: a new British independent crime comedy, one of the modern found-footage scene’s established cult titles and a 1980s slasher receiving its first 4K UHD release anywhere in the world.
Semolina Pilchard: Limited Edition Blu-ray arrives 5 October, followed by Hell House LLC: Limited Edition Blu-ray on 26 October, with The House on Sorority Row: Collector’s Edition 4K UHD completing the trio on 7 December 2026. Last Slate Video has also confirmed that further Blu-ray and 4K UHD announcements are still to come.
