David “The Rock” Nelson Collection : Volume 2 Available July 29

#horror – #horrormovies – #DavidTheRockNelsonCollection – #SaturnsCore –

Dubbed “The Ed Wood of the 21st Century,” Des Plaines, Illinois-based former marine and Golden Gloves boxer turned gonzo filmmaker David “The Rock” Nelson has been churning out his bizarre and mesmerizing brand of backyard monster movies for over 30 years. Often playing multiple onscreen roles simultaneously while utilizing local friends, his parents, and his girlfriend Janet Okulanis as his co-stars, “The Rock” has amassed a robust SOV filmography and persevered undaunted in the face of nonexistent funds, unfavorable reviews, and outdated video equipment. Nelson’s work represents a singular viewing experience like no other, landing somewhere between the earnest monster romps of Paul Naschy and the eccentric video diaries of George Kuchar, where the filmmaker’s real-life day to day activities and interactions sometimes outweigh the forwarding of the narrative. Equipped with dime store rubber fright masks and his camcorder, David “The Rock” Nelson has unapologetically crafted a legacy that remains an inspirational testament to the spirit of fulfilling your cinematic dreams at any cost.

Over 4 1/2 years in the making and clocking in at a staggering 2 1/2 hour runtime, The Devil Ant from 1999 is considered by many to be Nelson’s magnum opus and mission statement. When the sardine gobbling mad doctor (Nelson) and his absent minded assistant (also Nelson) dump a pail of nuclear waste into the nearby water supply, an ordinary ant (Nelson’s infamous dime store rubber toy) is transformed into an unstoppable, marauding menace! With Detective Rock (Nelson again) not-so hot on the trail, the radioactive ant (as well as David’s probing camcorder) wreaks havoc on the streets, restaurants, and horror conventions of Illinois as Nelson brazenly flings his rubber ant at unsuspecting civilians, exasperated friends and family members, and confused convention attendees and celebrities. Featuring “appearances” by cult film luminaries including Forest J. Ackerman, Roger Corman, Fred Olen Ray, Bill Hinzman, Conrad Brooks, John Russo, Carl J. Sukenick, and even former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton! Saturn’s Core is proud to present Nelson’s stream of consciousness SOV epic The Devil Ant along with a host of brain-smashing shorts and madness hand picked by “The Rock,” plus the 2007 feature length documentary Can’t Stop the Rock, and nearly 4 stinkin’ hours of doughnut dunking special features.

STARRING: David “The Rock” Nelson, Janet Okulanis, Richard T. Crowe, Svengoolie

#horror – #horrormovies – #TheDarkHalf – #VinegarSyndrome – @VinegarSyndrome –

Thad Beaumont is tired of writing trashy pulp novels under the pseudonym “George Stark” in order to make a living. Yearning to focus solely on scribing the intellectually stimulating literature he enjoys, Thad decides to – literally – bury his alter ego in a figurative attempt to finally break free of lucrative lowbrow temptations. However, George isn’t prepared to be laid to rest and miraculously resurrects himself out of Thad’s subconscious, fully transforming into a flesh-and-blood double and going on a grisly murder spree straight out of one of his own novels. With the police convinced that Thad is behind the series of bizarre killings, he is forced to confront his inner demons and determine where the real Thad ends and the “real” George begins in an attempt to put an end to George Stark’s rampage.

Based on the thrilling novel by Stephen King (Carrie, The Shining) and directed by horror legend George A. Romero (Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead), THE DARK HALF is a tense examination of the violent and destructive nature of the creative process. Starring Academy Award® winner Timothy Hutton (Ordinary People), Academy Award® nominee Amy Madigan (Twice in a Lifetime, Field of Dreams), and Academy Award© nominee Julie Harris (The Member of the Wedding, The Haunting), Vinegar Syndrome is proud to bring THE DARK HALF to 4K UHD, in a brand new cinematographer-approved restoration of its 35mm camera negative and featuring a comprehensive selection of new and archival extras, including never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage and interviews.

#horror – #horrormovies – #CriminallyInsane2 – #DegausserVideo – @DegausserVideo –

Thirteen years after going on a bloody, food-related killing spree, gluttonous Ethel Janowsky is deemed fit to return to society and transferred to a halfway house presided over by the kindly old Hope Bartholomew. Settling in alongside the other oddball residents, it’s not long before Ethel’s homicidal rage is once again triggered when one of the staff taunts her with chocolate bars. After throttling the man to death with a hastily-improvised noose, Ethel sets about hacking and slashing her way through the remainder of the residents – and anyone else unfortunate enough to wander onto the property.

The notoriously bonkers follow-up to the 1975 proto-slasher classic Criminally Insane, CRIMINALLY INSANE 2 (aka Crazy Fat Ethel II) – once again directed by prolific exploitation merchant Nick Millard (Satan’s Black Wedding) – sees the inimitable Priscilla Alden reprising her role as the deliciously unhinged Ethel Janowsky in this delirious shoestring sequel sure to please fans of shot-on-video schlock. Now newly restored from the best surviving tape master, Degausser Video is delighted to serve up CRIMINALLY INSANE II for the first time on Blu-ray alongside a host of bonus features.

Jacob (2011) Available July 29

#horror – #horrormovies – #Jacob – #CrazedHouseLTD –

His beloved little sister killed by her abusive step-father, disturbed farm boy Jacob seeks Vengeance in this dark thriller featuring Michael Biehn.

A Southern Gothic slasher in the tradition of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Jacob is a chilling portrait of a hulking, troubled child who seeks vengeance against those who destroyed his family.

Jacob Kell (Dylan Horne) is a lonely and quiet kid, mute since his father (Michael Biehn, The Terminator) suffered from a violent mental breakdown. Prone to violence himself, only Jacob’s sister Sissy (Grace Powell, Homestead) can soothe the savage beast inside him. But once his drunken stepfather Otis (played by writer/director Larry Wade Carrell, Hidden in the Woods) slaps his mother around once too many, Jacob goes down the same vengeful blood-spilling path as his Dad (Michael Biehn, Terminator, Aliens).

An authentically terrifying independent horror movie, Jacob proves that it’s better to spoil the child, lest they grow up and use the rod on you.

Veerana : Vengeance of the Vampire (1988) Available September 9

#horror – #horrormovies – #Veerana – #MondoMacabro – @MondoMacabroUSA –

In VEERANA: VENGEANCE OF THE VAMPIRE, a local landowner’s daughter is possessed by the spirit of a dead witch and becomes a bloodsucking seductress. On the next moonless night, she will be used in a hideous ritual to raise the evil witch from her tomb. VEERANA is one of the most popular horror films made by the Ramsay Brothers. It was also one of their most controversial. Its sexually charged theme of a female vampire seeking out and seducing her male victims before draining them of their blood was a shocker by mid-80s Bollywood standards and the film’s release was delayed by censorship problems for a number of years. The film’s female lead, Jasmin, became a sensation but she disappeared following the film’s premier and was never seen again on screen. Her whereabouts remain a mystery to this day.

STARRING: Jasmin, Hemant Birje, Sahila Chaddha, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Satish Shah

What silent terror lies within the walls of a gloomy old Victorian mansion by the sea? Unable to get housing on campus, young co-ed Scotty (Rebecca Balding, The Boogens) finds a vacancy at the Engels’ mansion, now a boarding house for college students. Mrs. Engels (Yvonne DeCarlo, TV’s The Munsters) and her son seem nice enough, but it soon becomes clear to Scotty that something is not right at her new residence. When her fellow boarders begin to get brutally butchered, two detectives (comedian Avery Schreiber and The Toolbox Murders’ Cameron Mitchell) must solve the mystery of the Engels’ boarding house before the body count rises. Written and produced by Ken and Jim Wheat, the creative team behind Nightmare on Elm Street 4, The Fly II and Pitch Black, and featuring horror icon Barbara Steele (Black Sunday, The Crimson Cult) in an unforgettable role, the bloodcurdling Silent Scream was one of the most successful, stylish and subversive independent horror movies of the slasher era.

ARE YOU EATING IT… OR IS IT EATING YOU?

The Stuff is the new dessert taking supermarket shelves by storm. It’s delicious, low in calories and better still doesn’t stain the family carpet… What’s not to like? Well, for a start, it has a life of its own, and we’re not talking friendly live bacteria…

Young Jason seems to be the only one who doesn’t love The Stuff – in fact, he won’t go anywhere near it, after having seen the pudding crawling around the fridge one night. What’s more, everyone who eats The Stuff has started acting really weird… Now, teaming up with wise-cracking industrial saboteur Mo, Jason must put a stop to The Stuff and the organization behind it or face a gooey, gloopy demise.

Coming courtesy of horror auteur Larry Cohen (director of the It’s Alive series and scribe behind the Maniac Cop trilogy), The Stuff is a titillating treat for the tastebuds which blends elements of films such as Street Trash with the straight-up B-movie flavor of The Blob. So grab a spoon and dig on into The Stuff – the taste that delivers… much more than you bargained for!
