#horror – #horrormovies – #Scrapbook – #SaturnsCore –

Leonard (Tommy Biondo) is a depraved serial killer who is documenting his atrocities by keeping a scrapbook of the torment he inflicts, forcing each of his victims to personally chronicle their horrific ordeal within the pages before experiencing their grim demise. When he abducts Clara (Emily Haack), she too must unwillingly add her suffering to the pages of the book. Filthy, naked, and trapped amidst the decaying remains of previous victims, Clara is repeatedly beaten, raped, starved, and humiliated by her unhinged captor. She soon realizes that her only hope for survival is to manipulate Leonard through her writing, by authoring a final and cunning chapter to his macabre and cherished compendium of horrors.

Voted the “Best Independent Film of the Year” (2001) by Rue Morgue Magazine, the raw and claustrophobic Scrapbook heralded a visceral and transgressive turning point in the career of visionary Missouri-based video auteur Eric Stanze (Savage Harvest, Ice from the Sun, Ratline) boasting a fearless and awe-inspiring performance by lead actress Emily Haack. One of the most harrowing and disturbing depictions of a serial killer in cinematic history, Scrapbook polarized audiences, courted controversy, won festival awards, incurred censorship, and foreshadowed the “torture porn” movement in horror that would flourish in the decade to come. Saturn’s Core is proud to unleash Scrapbook fully uncut and uncensored in its first ever, director-supervised Blu-Ray edition.

STARRING: Emily Haack, Tommy Biondo, Todd Tevlin, Elizabeth Hammock

The Prophecy 1-3 4K Ultra HD Collection Available January 30

#horror – #horrormovies – #TheProphecy – #VinegarSyndrome – @VinegarSyndrome –

One of the bloodiest and most creative, late 20th century horror franchises, The Prophecy Trilogy, all of which star Oscar® winner Christopher Walken as the evil angel Gabriel, broke new ground in 1990s horror with their high concept narratives and gruesome practical effects. Vinegar Syndrome is proud to present the 4K UHD debuts of The Prophecy 1-3, or the “Gabriel” trilogy, all newly and exclusively restored and featuring an extensive array of new and archival bonus materials.

In Gregory Widen’s acclaimed directorial debut, The Prophecy (1994), Elias Koteas (Crash) stars as Thomas Dagget, a former seminary student who has turned his back on religion, instead becoming a homicide detective. Thomas’ latest case, of a strangely deformed and mutilated corpse, pushes him into the middle of a bloody battle between Simon (Eric Stoltz), an angel of good, and Gabriel (Christopher Walken), an angel of evil, each of whom are attempting to gather souls and build an army in order to prevent – or bring about – the apocalypse.

In director Greg Spence’s gruesome follow-up, The Prophecy II (1998), dark angel Gabriel, vengeful over his failure to bring about the end times, returns to earth intent on spreading violence and destruction, but soon sets his sights on Valarie Rosales (Jennifer Beals), a nurse who, unbeknownst to her, is pregnant with an angel. If Gabriel is able to kill both her and her child, he will hold sufficient evil power to finish his war in heaven.

Finally, in director Patrick Lussier’s closing entry in the trilogy, The Prophecy 3: The Ascent (2000), the now human Gabriel is faced with an unlikely challenge – to assist Danyael, a resurrected half angel/half human in stopping the evil angel sent to kill him, and to help Danyael prevent Heaven’s war and stop the coming of a second genocidal God – Pyriel.

STARRING: Christopher Walken, Elias Koteas, Virginia Madsen, Eric Stoltz, Viggo Mortensen

#horror – #horrormovies – #FatalGames – #VinegarSyndrome – @VinegarSyndrome –

The young athletes of Falcon Academy are training hard to earn their place in the nationals. But when these burgeoning sports stars start disappearing one after the other, Dr. Jordine and his team – who’ve started plying their athletes with new and untested performance-enhancing drugs – are baffled. Little do they realize that a javelin-wielding, tracksuit-wearing killer with a strong throwing arm and a deadly grudge against athletic excellence is on the prowl, picking off the Olympic hopefuls one by one. Whether they’re squeezing out a few extra reps in the gym, training on the field or clocking up some late-night strokes in the pool, nowhere is safe. As their numbers continue to dwindle, can the remaining athletes unmask the maniac before they’re disqualified… for good?!

Directed by Michael Elliot – who does double duty in the role of Dr. Jordine – and starring Academy Award-nominee Sally Kirkland, Fatal Games is a deliriously entertaining early ’80s stalk-and-slash effort stacked with gratuitous nudity, physics-defying death sequences and one of the most jaw-dropping twist endings in all of slasher movie history. Completely AWOL on home video since its original VHS release and high up on any slasher enthusiast’s wish list, the horror champions at Vinegar Syndrome have at long last taken up the baton with this Blu-ray world premiere of Fatal Games, newly restored in 4K from recently-unearthed film elements and bulked up with a winning array of brand new extras in an edition that really takes it all the way!

STARRING: Sally Kirkland, Lynn Banashek, Sean Masterson, Michael O’Leary, Teal Roberts

Mondo Macabro presents the BOLLYWOOD HORROR COLLECTION – Tulsi and Shyam Ramsay’s 6-Disc Set of classic Indian horror films.

The seven Ramsay brothers, sons of the radio manufacturer Fatehchand U. Ramsay, were India’s biggest producers of horror movies. The family was the Indian equivalent of the UK’s Hammer Films. They were active between 1972 and 1994 and produced 25 films, the vast majority of them in the horror genre, although they also worked on thrillers and even a children’s film, which also included a monster of sorts – a huge friendly Yeti…

This box set is the first collection of their films to be released on Blu-ray and is packed with extra features, and interviews with cast and crew along with an 80 page full color book written by Indian film expert Tim Paxton.

STARRING: Kapil Jhaveri, Mohnish Behl, Puneet Issar, Aarti Gupta, Anirudh Agarwal

#horror – #horrormovies – #CushingCuriosities – #SeverinFilms – @SeverinFilms –

6 DISC COLLECTION INCLUDES 5 FEATURE FILMS, 6 BBC TELEPLAYS, 200-PAGE BOOK AND 16+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES!

From Hammer Films to Star Wars, he remains one of genre films’ best-loved actors. Now celebrate six of the most unexpected, rarely seen and decidedly curious performances from the legendary career of Peter Cushing.

Cushing delivers a rare villain turn in the 1960 aviation thriller Cone Of Silence. That same year, Cushing brought gentle dignity to The Boulting Brothers’ cold-war drama Suspect. In 1962’s The Man Who Finally Died, Cushing co-stars opposite Stanley Baker as a former Nazi hiding a grave post-war secret. Cushing returns to his iconic role of Sherlock Holmes in these six surviving episodes of the 1968 BBC TV series. The oft-maligned 1971 shocker Bloodsuckers can now be reassessed for the first time in its Restored Extended Version. And Cushing portrays a vampire for the first and only time in 1974’s off-the-wall erotic comedy Tender Dracula, premiering here in its Director’s Cut.

Each disc has been mastered from original vault elements with over 16 total hours of trailers, commentaries, vintage interviews, location features and more, plus the all-new 200-page book Peter Cushing: A Portrait In Six Sketches by award-winning horror film historian Jonathan Rigby.

STARRING: Peter Cushing

Remember the shelves of your local video store? Those days aren’t gone! Reject reality and substitute your own with Arrow Video! In 1983, entrepreneurial producer and director Charles Band founded Empire International Pictures, which would go on to make some of the most memorable and beloved genre movies of the 1980s. Empire became a mainstay of video stores across the world with their catchy titles, outlandish art, and Band’s wholehearted belief in giving audiences a good time.

In The Dungeonmaster (AKA Ragewar), computer programmer Paul Bradford is sucked into a fantasy world by Mestema, a demonic sorcerer in search of a worthy opponent. Meanwhile, fresh from the one-two punch of Re-Animator and From Beyond, director Stuart Gordon takes a turn toward fairytale gothic in Dolls, in which a group of strangers find themselves forced to seek shelter at the isolated home of an old toymaker and his wife, only to find that the puppets and dolls have a vicious life of their own. In Cellar Dweller, a comic book artist (Jeffrey Combs) with a penchant for the macabre takes inspiration from an ancient tome and unleashes an ancient evil. Arena presents the ultimate fight night event: man vs monster! In the far future of 4038, a short order cook becomes the first human in fifty years to compete in an intergalactic boxing event on the far side of the universe. Finally in Robot Jox, Stuart Gordon directs Empire Pictures’ most ambitious movie yet, as men and women pilot giant machines in gladiatorial battle to settle international disputes over territory.
