A cult classic from 1986 finally gets its due with a special edition DVD release. If you've never seen or heard of THE WRAITH now is the time to correct that oversight.

What exactly makes one immediately think vengeful spirit? When you think about wraiths you don't typically envision a guy in leather and a helmet driving a space age sports car and using it to kamikaze victims. It almost seems more sci-fi, more extraterrestrial in nature, especially when the car materializes and dematerializes into whizzing balls of light and anything that collides with the wraith-mobile explodes real good. On a totally wacko theological level, what sort of god decides to send a random teenager murdered while engaging in pre-marital sex with his girlfriend back down to earth in a futuristic racecar for sole purpose of getting his girl back and killing the punks that stole his life? I want to worship that god.
