Visual Vengeance is preparing Blu-ray releases of Bret McCormick's Repligator (1998) and The Abomination (1986). The two releases are scheduled to arrive on the market on September 26.
Repligator
Description: From director Bret McCormick (The Abomination) comes one of the most screwball, brain-melting late 90s direct-to-video entries ever made. At a top-secret military facility, a group of scientists and army brass work on the "The Replicator Project" which quickly goes awry when it turns all the male soldiers into gorgeous, scantily clad nymphets, who then morph into alligators when they reach the peak of sexual excitement! Starring original Leatherface Gunnar Hansen and iconic scream queen Brinke Stevens, Repligator enjoys its first ever release on Blu-ray, with brand new interviews and insights from the cast and creators of this sexy science-fiction send-up.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Description: Deep in the heart of rural Texas, a TV evangelist exorcises a tumor from the body of a loyal worshipper, who soon coughs up the growth. Unknown to her, the cancer is actually a carnivorous life form that slithers its way into her son Cody while he sleeps, growing inside him until he is completely under its control. Now Cody must feed the beast fresh victims to keep them both alive, as the monster grows out larger and larger, threatening to feast on everyone in its path. One of the most legendary and notorious VHS releases of the video store era, Bret McCormicks' Super 8 gorefest The Abomination enjoys its first ever release on Blu-ray with newly created bonus features and never before seen outtakes, images and more!
