Sam Raimi’s most recent horror feature DRAG ME TO HELL is getting the full Collector’s Edition treatment from Shout! Factory for its Scream Factory Blu-ray line, and the complete specs have just been released. See ’em after the jump, along with the cover art.

The DRAG ME TO HELL disc will street February 13, featuring new HD masters of both the theatrical and unrated cuts, both derived from the 2K digital intermediate. The synopsis: “Christine Brown (Alison Lohman) is on her way to having it all: a devoted boyfriend (Justin Long), a hard-earned job promotion, and a bright future. But when she has to make a tough decision that evicts an elderly woman from her house, Christine becomes the victim of an evil curse. Now she has only three days to dissuade a dark spirit from stealing her soul before she is dragged to hell for an eternity of unthinkable torment.” Special features are as follows:
