Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Presents
Four New Titles in Frighteningly High Definition…
THE EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE
I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER
URBAN LEGEND
Arriving on Blu-ray Disc™ July 22nd
Culver City, Calif. – (May 27, 2008) - Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will slay audiences with a slate of high definition horror including The Exorcism of Emily Rose, I Know What You Did Last Summer and Urban Legend each available July 22, 2008 on Blu-ray Disc™ for the suggested retail price of $28.95 each. Each Blu-ray Disc comes with special frightening features that include deleted scenes, director commentary, horror shots, music videos, featurettes and more.
The Exorcism of Emily Rose
Attorney Erin Bruner (Linney) takes on both church and state when she is assigned to defend a priest (Wilkinson) in court. The prosecution alleges murder, but the priest denies any wrongdoing, claiming the young victim needed spiritual help with her demons and that she died after he performed an exorcism. Through the course of the trial Bruner must piece together the turn of events—all seemingly logical, but still eerily supernatural—that led to the death of Emily Rose (Jennifer Carpenter, D.E.B.S., Battle in Seattle). What she discovers will test her belief in science, faith and the battle between good and evil.
The Exorcism of Emily Rose is directed by Scott Derrickson (Love in the Ruins, Hellraiser: Inferno), produced by Beau Flynn (Bubble Boy, Requiem For a Dream), Gary Lucchesi (Aeon Flux, Underworld: Evolution), Tom Rosenberg (Wicker Park, The Covenant), Trip Vincent and Paul Harris Boardman (Love in the Ruins, Hellraiser: Inferno) who also co-wrote the screenplay with Scott Derrickson (Urban Legend: Final Cut, Land of Plenty). The film stars Laura Linney (The Savages, Kinsey), Tom Wilkinson (In The Bedroom, Michael Clayton), Campbell Scott (Roger Dodger, Phoebe in Wonderland) and Jennifer Carpenter (D.E.B.S., Battle in Seattle). The Exorcism of Emily Rose was theatrically released in 2005. The Unrated Version has a run time of 122 minutes.

I Know What You Did Last Summer
In a small fishing town, Julie James (Jennifer Love Hewitt – “The Ghost Whisper” ), Helen Shivers (Sarah Michelle Gellar – “Buffy The Vampire Slayer,” Southland Tales), Ray Bronson (Freddie Prinze Jr. – Brooklyn Rules, She’s All That) and Barry William Cox (Ryan Philippe – Stop Loss, Crash) are celebrating their last summer together after graduating high school. Their fun screeches to a halt when they accidentally hit a stranger on a dark, winding road. Thinking they killed him, they panic and decide to bury the truth – and the body. One year later, however, a note shows up saying, “I Know What You Did Last Summer.” When a dark figure wielding a large hook begins to stalk them, the foursome quickly learns that some things don’t always stay buried. Consumed with terror, the teens desperately try to figure out who they killed and who this shadowy murderer might be. But the task proves difficult when they start getting picked off in murderous revenge.

Urban Legend
A group of students at a quaint New England college are taking a class in urban myth and folklore. After class one day they recount urban legends turned deadly, including the alleged murders of 25 students at their own college by a psychology professor. At the forefront of this group is Natalie Simon (Alicia Witt – 88 Minutes, The Upside of Anger), an academically-gifted student who is joined by her best friend Brenda Bates (Rebecca Gayheart – Jawbreaker, Bunny Whipped), party boy Parker Riley (Michael Rosenbaum – “Smallville”), jokester Damon Brooks (Joshua Jackson – Battle in Seattle, Bobby) and aspiring journalist Paul Gardener (Jared Leto – Requiem For a Dream, Lord of War). Soon after this discussion these friends and their classmates start to be brutally killed and somehow Natalie is connected to every one.
