Blood Sucking Freaks – 4K

Description

Sardu, with the help of his dwarf servant Ralphus, operates New Yorks most controversial theatre, Sardu’s Theatre of the Macabre, where each performance is an expertly staged display of gruesome acts of torture. Divisive as his take on entertainment might be, arrogant theatre critic, Creasy Silo, is having none of it and makes it his mission to put an end to Sardus grisly dramas. However, what audiences and critics alike do not realize is that each of these shocking shows is completely real; with innocent nude women being maimed and murdered live on stage! When Sardu sets his eyes on beautiful ballerina Natasha, hes immediately smitten and determines that she must star in his next production, whether she wants to or not, and that her stage partner will be none other than Creasy Silo A foundational film in establishing legendary genre cinema distributor, Troma Entertainment, Joel M.

Starring acclaimed Shakespearian actor, Seamus OBrien as the fiendish Sardu and Luis De Jesus (Let My Puppets Come) as the equally deranged Ralphus, and featuring a host of New Yorks top sex starlets as the demented duo’s assorted victims, Vinegar Syndrome is thrilled to present the world 4K UHD debut of the fully uncut version of BLOOD SUCKING FREAKS, exclusively restored from the best surviving film elements and presented with a consummate selection of extras. 2-disc Region Free Set: 4K Ultra HD + 4K UHD presented in High-Dynamic-Range Newly scanned and restored in 4K from its 35mm internegative Brand new commentary track with John Szpunar, author of Blood Sucking Freak: The Life and Films of the Incredible Joel M.
