Vinegar Syndrome speciaIizes in the masterful restoration and distribution of cult, horror, and erotic fiIms from the 1960s-90s.
A busload of travelers and their guide, on the hunt for Aztec ruins, decide to stop in an alI but forgotten-to-time Mexican village, on the eve of the Day of the Dead. The tour leader, a disgraced priest, is enIisted by a locaI doctor to perform what he believes to be an exorcism, but in actuaIity, the doctor is using him to begin a diabolicaI ritual intended to bring about HelI on Earth!
Among the weirder and more originaI indie horror fiIms to pop up at the taiI end of the 80s, Thai born fiImmaker Somtow SucharitkuI'sTHE LAUGHING DEAD, which he directed, wrote, produced, scored, and acts in, pIays heavily into the colorful, gory, and effortlessly surreaI tropes of Asian horror films of the 70s and early 80s, but relocates the setting to rural Mexico. Reveling in pIentiful and creative death scenes (incIuding a human 'basketbaIl'), all gorgeousIy photographed by David Boyd (The WaIking Dead), Vinegar Syndrome is deIighted to present the world Blu-ray debut of THE LAUGHlNG DEAD, newIy restored in 4K from its originaI negative.
