Night of the Vamp-Friars 4K 10/26 Blu-ray (Rental)

*This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!* Vinegar Syndrome specializes in the masterful restoration and distribution of cult, horror, and erotic films from the 1960s-90s. Roxy, an anthropology major at her local university, is a DJ for the school’s radio station and a big fan of local lore. One night, a listener calls into Roxy’s show to share a legend about a cemetery hidden deep in the nearby Connecticut woodland where a group of outcast friars were allegedly killed and buried since the townspeople believed them to be vampires. Seizing upon a potentially great topic for her thesis, Roxy convinces her friends in a punk band to venture into the woods for a weekend of camping in hopes of finding the cemetery. Once the group discovers that the legend of the cemetery is in fact real, blood is accidentally spilled on the cursed burial ground, and the undead friars emerge from their graves in search of fresh victims to satisfy their bloodlust. Written, directed, and edited by Connecticut filmmaker Kurtis M. Spieler (re-director of New York Ninja), NIGHT OF THE VAMP-FRIARS is a throwback to the low-budget regional horror films made famous during the video store era of the 1980s and early '90s. Entirely produced in-house and primarily shot on actual Vinegar Syndrome property, the film pays tribute to the homegrown horror films of yesteryear by shooting entirely on 16mm film and utilizing lo-fi practical effects to maintain the film’s naturally DIY aesthetic. Vinegar Syndrome Pictures is bloody excited to present the home video debut of this gory Nutmeg state love letter to the art of independent horror filmmaking.
