This was a neat little thriller with a great cast (Oliver Reed, Gig Young and Carol Lynley) that used to turn up on late night TV on a regular basis. It's a pity that it seems to have never been given a VHS or DVD release.

i agree its a fantastic little thriller but as yet unreleased anywhere on dvd which is a crying shame! i do remember seeing it ages ago on tv but hasnt appeared again on tv in years which is typical now i have my dvd recorder ready! so i guess its just a case of waiting to see if it eventually gets to dvd or appears again on late nite tele!

Actually, it was so some extent. Someone did release this film but under its other title, Blood Island, on VHS. I bought a copy off of eBay. Its an excellent copy, I watched it all the way through. Try eBay and see what you find. I don't think Blood Island was transferred to DVD yet.
shareI have the "Blood Island" release of Shuttered Room on VHS. It's okay, except that they cut out some of the beginning moments, and maybe a few more here and there during the movie, if I remember correctly. Not quite the same as what I remember watching on late-night TV.

The film just came out on Region 1 DVD from Warner Brothers. It's on a doublebill with "It" starring Roddy McDowall. The disc offers a nice crisp widescreen presentation of the picture.
