Graduation Day
After a high school track runner, named Laura, suddenly dies from a heart attack after finishing a 30-second 200-meter race, a killer wearing a sweat suit and a fencing mask begins killing off her friends on the school track team one by one. The suspects include the track coach Michaels, Laura's sister Anne who arrives in town for the funeral, the creepy school principal Mr. Guglione, and Laura's strange boyfriend Kevin. STREET DATE: NOVEMBER 14TH.
Head of the Family
Something s twisted in Nob Hollow. In the midst of a torrid affair with Loretta, a biker s wife, Lance discovers that the tiny town s weirdest residents, the Stackpoole family, have been doing some hideous human experiments in the bowels of their basement. Lance blackmails Myron Stackpoole (the head of the family ) and his psychically controlled siblings into murdering Loretta s husband, but Lance soon finds that he s way in over his head. Join Myron and his creepy clan in their dysfunctional, disfigured den of demented decadence for an abnormally good time! STREET DATE: OCTOBER 14TH.
Mother's Day
Loving sons always do what their mothers tell them to... even if it's to kill!!! This stylish, horrific and darkly humorous film is a worldwide favorite. In the spirit of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Mother's Day is a celebration of gore and depravity that is certain to offend the weak of heart! STREET DATE: DECEMBER 31.
Tromeo and Juliet
Updated to be set in the outskirts of New York City, Shakespeare's classic romantic tragedy is transformed into a no-holes barred, punk-inflected Elizabethan stage send-up of the story of a doomed love. STREET DATE: DECEMBER 31.
The Toxic Avenger Part II
The toxic avenger is out for revenge on the group responsible for the destruction of a home for the blind. His trail leads to Japan where he accidentally bumps into his father who is running a large scale drug-running operation. STREET DATE: OCTOBER 14TH.
The Toxic Avenger Part III
Third part in the cult horror series featuring the mutated janitor. Toxie is now ready to settle down and start a family, but regular work proves hard to find. He is, however, offered a 'job' by the corrupt chairman of Apocalypse Inc. It is more money than Toxie has ever dreamed of, but is the work ethical? STREET DATE: DECEMBER 31.
The Toxic Avenger IV: Citizen Toxie
When the notorious Diaper Mafia take hostage the Tromaville School for the Very Special, only the Toxic Avenger and his morbidly obese sidekick Lardass can save Tromaville. However, a horrific explosion creates a dimensional portal between Tromaville and its dimensional mirror image, Amortville. While the Toxic Avenger (Toxie) is trapped in Amortville, Tromaville comes under the control of Toxie's evil doppelganger, the Noxious Offender (Noxie). Will Toxie return to Tromaville in time to stop Noxie's rampage or is he doomed to remain a second-class citizen in Amortville forever? How did Toxie's wife Sarah become pregnant with two babies from two different fathers? Will Tito, the Retarded Rebel, ever get over his teen angst and become a productive member of society? STREET DATE: DECEMBER 31.
