Few filmmakers working in British genre cinema had more memorable careers than Lindsay Shonteff. The Canadian ex-pat produced an incredibly diverse body of work during his few decades spent toiling on the fringes of England’s low-budget film community. Still, few of his films have developed a wider – and more deserved – fan base than his set of 60s horror-shockers made for legendary producer Richard Gordon (Horror Hospital): DEVIL DOLL and CURSE OF THE VOODOO. Vinegar Syndrome is proud to offer both of these true cult classics, newly scanned and restored from their camera negatives in 4K and on Blu-ray for the first time.

However, nothing can prepare him for the strange and horrifying secret trapped inside the dummy, nor for the murderous actions it will take to be freed… Integrating the supernatural into a twist-filled story of revenge, DEVIL DOLL stars Bryant Haliday (Tower of Evil), William Sylvester (Gorgo), and Yvonne Romain (Night Creatures) and is presented in its “Continental” version, which has never before been seen complete and uncut on video!

But no sooner than moving in to collect the body is he accosted by the local tribesmen who reveal that the lion is their deity and that any man who dares interfere will suffer unimaginable torments. Upon returning to England, Mike is besieged by unrelenting nightmares and a paranoid sense that he’s being watched, chased, and hunted like the animals he preys upon. As he descends further into madness, he realizes that the only way he can break the curse is by returning to Africa and again facing the deadly tribe… A 1960s update of Jungle adventure and horror films of the 1930s and 40s, CURSE OF THE VOODOO (aka Curse of Simba) again stars Bryant Haliday, Dennis Price (The Earth Dies Screaming), and Lisa Daniely (Lili Marlene).
A group of cultists led by the maniacal Paul spend their days in a haze of psychedelic-fueled free love whilst their vicious leader dishes out bloody and brutal vengeance on anyone who attempts to leave the fold – aided by his crazed and thoroughly sadistic right-hand man, Igor, who has a particular fondness for carving up nubile young women with his trusty collection of sharp implements. After being incarcerated for several years for a spate of grim slayings, Paul is released back into society and, reunited with his murderous devotees, immediately sets about continuing his gruesome cult activities.
Financed by the legendary Troma Entertainment, who ended up requiring extensive reshoots in order to up the movie’s gore quotient (with these additional sequences being helmed by Spookies directors Thomas Doran and Brendan Faulkner), Igor and the Lunatics is a demented, depraved, and thoroughly distasteful Manson Family-esque shocker from the studio that Toxie built. Now newly restored in 4K from its original 16mm camera negative, Vinegar Syndrome Archive is delighted to present Igor and the Lunatics in both its original release version, alongside the home video debut of its longer Bloodshed cut, as well as a brand new making-of documentary digging into the behind-the-scenes of this sickening cult favorite.
