In a surprise announcement (we have had a few of those so far this week) Starz Home Entertainment has announced that they will begin releasing titles exclusively for Blu-ray. Most people know Starz Home Entertainment by their former name, Anchor Bay, who own rights to over 600 movies and TV shows, including many horror classics like 'Evil Dead' and the 'Hellraiser' and 'Halloween' series.
Starz has announced that they will be releasing the 'Master's of Horror' collection on Blu-ray during the latter part of the year, with the hopes of bringing their entire catalog to the format when the format war nears an end. Starz has partnered with 20th Century Home Entertainment in the past, so it would not be unlikely that the partnership will continue with Blu-ray, though nothing has been confirmed at this time.
