First off, September releases are in stock and shipping!
One of our more varied recent months, we've got:
• Philip Brophy's Aussie classic BODY MELT coming in a brand new, never before seen (unless you were at Fantasia a month and a half ago) restoration, made from the camera negative (plus loads of extras).
• James Riffel's gory saga of home ownership, THE DEAD COME HOME (aka HOUSE ON TOMBSTONE HILL and DEAD DUDES IN THE HOUSE) in yet another new restoration from the camera negative.
• Gerard Damiano's unsettling sexual mood piece that veers into an unexpectedly bloody conclusion, MEMORIES WITHIN MISS AGGIE
• On DVD, you can opt for a double dose of Shaun Costello lunacy with SCHOOL GIRL REUNION and SENSUOUS FLY GIRLS, or plunge into the Ray Dennis Steckler abyss with THE SEXORCIST [DEVIL]and DEVIATES IN LOVE. Or you can be smart about it and get both...

October is a BIG and BLOODY month for us!
As some of you internet dwellers might have already seen, our October lineup has been informally announced…and as of right now, they're up for pre-order at VinegarSyndrome.com!
If you're a fan of a) throat slashings, b) black gloved killers, c) Tiny Tim, or d) Wisconsin*, then you'll have to get Bill Rebane's BLOOD HARVEST, the third and final entry in the unofficial Wisconsin-shot 'Blood' titled slasher trilogy (with BLOOD BEAT and BLOOD HOOK coming before it), all of which we've now released on Blu. Coincidence? Or is it. Regardless, this gruesome regional gem makes its legal disc debut and is also uncut for the first time in the states since its 80s VHS release! We've also performed a new 4k restoration from the freshly discovered camera neg!
John Hough is one of 70s and 80s horror's most unsung auteurs, but no film in his lengthy career is more unsettling than his 1981 semi-slasher, THE INCUBUS, starring the great John Cassavetes as a small town doctor having to deal with a series of unexplained and vicious killings. This movie is gory, grim, and way overdue for a Blu-ray release. But luckily, you don't need to wait any longer! Our special edition sports a brand new 4k restoration of the best surviving elements as well as interviews with key talent.
Before the serial killer craze of the 80s, director Curtis Harringtoncrafted one of the most memorable studies in budding psychosis ever committed to film, THE KILLING KIND. Starring a pre-Deer Hunter John Savage as a deranged young man with a mommy fetish wandering around gloomy LA terrorizing and murdering various unfortunate women, this is an unassumingly complex examination of a serial killer in training. Rescued from the depths of the Texas oil industry (sorta), we're pleased to be giving it its Blu-ray debut in a new 2k restoration.
Finally, a wholly unique mix of sincere religious subtext, supernatural sex killings, hip hop, and arthouse visuals, writer/director/producer/star James Bond III's DEF BY TEMPTATION is a blaxploitation horror film that's decidedly not blaxploitation. What it is, however, is a mystical and at times beautiful genre film oddity made by a former child star and photographed by Ernest Dickerson, who remains one of the finest cinematographers of the past quarter century. Our Blu presents it newly restored from its camera negative and featuring a feature length audio interview with its elusive creator.
Then, on DVD, a thoroughly stupefying regional sex-filed horror/comedy, THE BRIDE'S INITIATION. It's about Dracula living in Miami, with a witch making him youth serum cocktails while he entertains himself with various female slaves, until he falls in love with Carol Connors. Like nothing else you‘ve seen, and like nothing you‘ll see again.
