Satan’s Playground Out On August 22nd: Just wanted to remind everyone to pre-order at Amazon Dante Tomaselli’s Satan’s Playground. On August 22nd., Anchor Bay will issue Satan’s Playground. It stars genre faves Felissa Rose, Edwin Neal, and Ellen Sandweiss. The story deals with a family camping trip. When their car breaks down in the New Jersey Pine Barrens they have to contend with a Mrs. Leeds and her insane family. Plus, there’s something even more dangerous lurking in the woods. If you’ve never driven through the Pine Barrens at night, trust me, it’s creepy. I always get freaked out by it. The DVD will be widescreen. Extras will have a Dante Tomaselli commentary track, a behind the scenes featurette, and photo gallery. We’re huge fans of Dante Tomaselli’s Horror (2002) and Desecration (1999) and have been anxiously awaiting the release of Satan’s Playground.
