Olive Films has announced that they will bring Wake of the Red Witch to Blu-ray. The film was directed by Edward Ludwig and starred John Wayne, Gail Russell, Gig Young, and Adele Mara. Wake of the Red Witch will be released on Blu-ray this April.

In the film, Wayne battles enemies above and below the waves-including a giant killer octopus. This sprawling epic adventure pits the tough-minded Captain Ralls (Wayne) against the treacherous Captain Sidneye (Luther Adler) in a bitter rivalry on a South Seas isle. At stake is a fortune in pearls hidden in an underwater cave. At risk is the hand of the beautiful Angelique (Russell), daughter of Desiax, the tyrant ruler of the island who plans to marry her off to Sidneye. In an attempt to rescue Angelique, Ralls must seize the pearls and exchange them for her freedom. The danger continues as fate holds on final test of strength for the bold Captain and the woman he loves.

Wake of the Red Witch was released in March of 1949. Exact technical specs and supplemental features to be included with this upcoming release are yet to be officially detailed.
