Synopsis: It has been hailed as "raw, funny and twisted" (PopOptiq), condemned as "soul-crushing" (NextProjection.com), and cheered as "a fresh new outsider vision" (Fantasia) at film festivals around the world. In this "sincerely disturbing" (Indiewire) debut from co-writer/director Andres Torres, a slow-witted misfit named Albert (Jon Wachter, giving what HorrorNews calls "the best male performance in a horror film this year" sells hot dogs all night from the most unsanitary food cart in downtown Manhattan. But when he's invited to become the new model for a manipulative photographer, Albert will be exposed to a seething city underbelly. It may shock you. But you have never seen anything quite like BAG BOY LOVER BOY.
Synopsis: It has been denounced as "revolting" (SplatterDay.com), "stomach-churning" (Classic-Horror.com) and "shower-prompting" (Fandor), while simultaneously acclaimed as "bone-chilling" (Chas Balun), "truly classic" (The Spinning Image) and "a must-see" (Horror.com).

Synopsis: In perhaps his most rarely seen film, Godfather Of Gore Lucio Fulci takes on the erotic thriller genre and unleashes the ultimate onslaught of glossy depravity: Brett Halsey (DEMONIA, THE RETURN OF THE FLY), Corinne Cléry (THE STORY OF O, MOONRAKER) and Blanca Marsillach star in this insane saga complete with a jaw-dropping cavalcade of kink that Beyond Terror: The Films of Lucio Fulci calls "Demented and hot...good sleazy fun and perhaps Fulci's last truly enjoyable film." Stefano Madia (BODY COUNT), Bernard Seray (HELL OF THE LIVING DEAD) and Fulci himself co-star in which is also known as DANGEROUS OBSESSION newly scanned from the original negative and transferred in HD for the first time ever.
Synopsis: In 1977, infamous filth auteur Joe D'Amato (BEYOND THE DARKNESS, ANTRHOPOPHAGUS) combined the insane extremes of eroticism and cannibalism for the most groin-grinding, gut-munching, gore-spewing EuroSleaze saga of them all. When journalist Emanuelle (the ever-luscious Laura Gemser of BLACK EMANUELLE fame:#41; discovers evidence of an extinct cannibal tribe in a Manhattan mental hospital, her investigation will take her to the Amazon jungle for an orgy of carnage that SexGoreMutants calls " … feral, demented and nasty. And in exploitation terms, that's entertainment!"
Gabriele Tinti (EMANUELLE IN AMERICA), Monica Zanchi (SISTER EMANUELLE) and Donald O'Brien (DOCTOR BUTCHER, M.D.) co-star in "the flesh & amp; fear masterpiece from the late great splatter genius" (DVD Beaver) released to '80s grindhouses as TRAP THEM AND KILL THEM and now scanned in 2k from original vault elements.
Synopsis: In 1964, 20th Century Fox released an independent shocker - shot in two weeks for $50,000 outside Stamford, Connecticut by local producer/director Del Tenney - advertised as "The First Horror-Monster Musical." More than 50 years later, this "Absolute classic of exploitation cinema" (Legends Magazine), returns like you've never seen or heard it before.

Severin is proud to present this cult favorite from "Connecticut's own Ed Wood" (Stamford Advocate), now featuring a new 2k scan from the original negative and loaded with all-new Special Features like nothing that ever stalked this earth!
Synopsis: Roman Polanski described it as the ribald adventures of an innocent girl. Critics called it an amoral, depraved disaster. More than four decades after its controversial release, it remains the most butchered, debated and least-seen film of the Oscar-winning directors entire career. The succulent Sydne Rome stars as an oft-naked American girl lost inside a Mediterranean villa inhabited by priests, pianists, perverts and a syphilitic pimp (a deliciously bizarre performance by Marcello Mastroianni) while indulging in madcap acts of gang rape, sodomy and ping-pong. Hugh Griffith (Tom Jones), Romolo Valli (Boccaccio 70) and Polanski himself co-star in this surreal and sexy comedy, now finally restored to its original running time from a vault print reportedly stolen from the wine cellar of producer Carlo Ponti!
