My Demon Lover will be released on Blu-ray on September 5 via Scream Factory. The 1987 horror-comedy stars Scott Valentine and Michele Little.

Charlie Loventhal directs from a script by Leslie Ray (The Wayans Bros.). Robert Trebor, Gina Gallego, Alan Fudge, Calvert DeForest, and Arnold Johnson round out the cast.

Special features are in progress and will be announced at a later date.

The happy-go-lucky but lonely Kaz (Scott Valentine) is looking for love when he meets Denny (Michele Little), a kindhearted young woman with an uncanny ability to attract stray pets and down-and-out boyfriends. Denny is sure she's met the man of her dreams when she sweeps Kaz off the streets and into her heart. But it's anything but a match made in heaven when she discovers that Kaz is afflicted by a curse that turns him into a horny monster — literally — whenever he's turned on! Will Denny be able to bring out the best, and not the beast, in her newfound paranormal paramour?

Pre-order My Demon Lover.

Arnold Johnson as Putney Swope (1969). Arnold was born in New York and had 47 acting credits, from this, his film debut, to a 2002 video. His other notable credits include Shaft, an episode of Good Times, five episodes of Sanford and Son, Rocky (as Apollo Creed's attorney), American Hot Wax, an episode of The Jeffersons, Racing with the Moon, eight episodes of Hill Street Blues, Weeds, The Five Heartbeats, an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Menace II Society, and four episodes of Family Matters. Robert Downey Sr dubbed Arnold's voice as Putney, as he thought Arnold's line readings were poor.
