Two Boxes: Televised Terror in Franco's Spain Limited Edition (UK Import) [Blu-ray]

Two Boxes: Televised Terror in Franco's Spain LE Blu-ray presents two landmark works of Spanish televised horror, pairing political allegory, surreal dread and dark satire in a remarkable double feature born from the final years of Francoist Spain.

In La cabina, an ordinary phone call becomes an escalating nightmare when a man finds himself trapped inside a telephone box as crowds gather and bureaucratic indifference turns sinister. In El televisor, a seemingly simple desire to own a television spirals into obsession and psychological collapse. Together, these films transform everyday objects into instruments of paranoia, using genre storytelling to reflect surveillance, conformity and repression.

Blending unsettling social commentary with inventive horror, both films remain strikingly modern in their power and influence. This limited edition set brings them together with extensive archival and newly produced extras.
