Seems like nobody is safe at spooky cabins in the woods by the lake these days.

Return To Blood Fart Lake – Many years have passed since the tragic events at Blood Fart Lake, where Jimmy dispatched a bunch of party going, cabin dwelling kids before he could be stopped by Ben Scrivens & his red neck pal, Leo Dechamp. Now Jimmy has returned, this time preying on a group of “Spirit Hunters” searching for the truth to his killings, and Ben must track down Leo before they’re added to his list of victims!

Evil Dead Inbred Maniacs – In a remote cabin, a group of friends gather for fun. When they find a mysterious book, they unleash a ghostly evil. This resurrects the redneck Leo DeChamp, a serial killer who used to strangle kids with skunk tails in the 1960’s.

Blood-A-Rama Triple Frightmare Available December 28

A horror triple feature from the vaults of the American Genre Film Archive (AGFA)!

Help Me . . . I’m Possessed: A free-form nightmare that takes place at a sanitarium in the desert, this surrealist gem includes a psychopathic hunchback, delirious monsters, and a killer early synthesizer score.

Night Of The Strangler: A southern-fried whodunnit with murder, racial tension, and a starring role from The Monkees’ Micky Dolenz, this sweat-soaked sleazer feels like a cross between an American giallo and a trashy airport paperback novel.

Carnival Of Blood: An ominous, semi-cinéma vérité horror movie that was shot at Coney Island in NYC, Carnival Of Blood features an early role from Burt Young (Rocky), pop-art gore that would make H.G. Lewis proud, and a gloriously seedy atmosphere.

NOTICE! These preservations were made from the only known film elements in existence. Please approach the technical quality of the source materials with empathy.

STARRING: Micky Dolenz, Burt Young

Zombie Cop (1991) Available December 21

One Hollywood stunt rarely attempted in shot-on-video movies is the car chase, yet “Zombie Cop” spends a big chunk of its short running time attempting just such a feat, with mixed results. Voodoo rituals, fight scenes, questionable police procedure, and ample gunplay with actors using real weapons firing blanks also contribute to making this one of the most gonzo horror/action hybrids ever made. After a cop named Gill and Haitian voodoo master Doctor Death kill each other during a routine drug bust, the duo rise from the grave to continue their game of cat-and-mouse as members of the undead. Gill enlists the help of human partner Stevens in tracking down Death and putting a stop to his nefarious plans for world domination! Painstakingly restored from original Super-VHS-C camera masters with a dynamic new 5.1 surround remix, “Zombie Cop” is more arresting than ever on Blu-ray together with never-before-seen bonus materials from the Tempe vaults, three audio commentaries, and original 1991 home video presentation captured from the archival edit master.

STARRING: Michael Kemper, Ken Jarosz, James R. Black Jr., Bill Morrison, James L. Edwards

Sheridan Le Fanu’s novella Carmilla, this “rather erotic Hammer chiller” (Leonard Maltin) stars Ingrid Pitt (Countess Dracula), Madeline Smith (Frankenstein And The Monster From Hell) and Peter Cushing (Horror Of Dracula, The Curse Of Frankenstein).
