As mixed as my ultimate reaction to HBO's Lovecraft Country ended up being I still here a couple weeks after the finale have been finding myself wishing every Sunday night that I had a new episode to watch, and that ain't nothing! Sure a lot of that is because I want to stare at Jonathan Majors in (and out) of all those ridiculously form-fitting clothes they had him in every week! But the show was often a whole lot of fun, even when it didn't totally gel... or make any sense... but we'll most certainly be getting a second season eventually, I think. And for now HBO has just announced the blu-ray release of Season One! It's hitting on February 16th, and if you'd like to see the set's special features I will share the press release right here after the jump...

BURBANK, CA (November 5, 2020) – Lovecraftian horror meets historical fiction in Lovecraft Country: The Complete First Season, HBO’s suspenseful drama, which will be released on Blu-ray™ and DVD by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on February 16, 2021.

Based on the 2016 novel by Matt Ruff, Lovecraft Country follows Atticus Freeman (Jonathan Majors) as he joins up with his childhood friend Leti Lewis (Jurnee Smollett) and his Uncle George (Courtney B. Vance) to embark on a road trip from Chicago across 1950s Jim Crow America in search of his missing father, Montrose Freeman (Michael K. Williams). Their search-and-rescue turns into a struggle to survive and overcome both the racist terrors of white America and monstrous creatures that could be ripped from an H.P. Lovecraft paperback.

Vance (HBO’s The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, American Crime Story), Jamie Neumann (HBO’s The Deuce), Jordan Patrick Smith (Vikings) and Tony Goldwyn (Scandal).
