Vinegar Syndrome released a double feature of two extreme movies: Devil Fetus and Her Vengeance. I watched “Devil Fetus” first. Released in 1983 and running 92 minutes it’s a disgusting, but low-budget fantasy/horror film. A woman has an antique vase that contains a demon which has sex with her. The movie does not waste time….

The Howling 2: Your Sister Is a Werewolf [Vinegar Syndrome] 4k/Blu-ray review
In 1981, The Howling and An American Werewolf in London brought werewolves back into the zeitgeist and studios were seeing dollar signs. The Howling was a Joe Dante film that was a enough of a success to land him the gig directing Gremlins. Obviously, The Howling needed a sequel. Enter Australian filmmaker, Philipe Mora. What…
The Ghost Dance [Vinegar Syndrome] Blu-ray Review
The late 70s and early 80s were considered the golden age of the slasher film. With a saturated market of low-budget slashers, a lot of well-crafted horror movies did not get the attention that they normally would have. The Ghost Dance is a slasher that revolves around a Native American killer with supernatural elements that…

The Curse of the Screaming Dead – Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
A bunch of longhairs go on a hunting party from hell, arguing over petty nonsense and incurring the wrath of some undead Civil War zombies. The Curse of the Screaming Dead (1982) is one of the single most annoying films I’ve sat through in quite a long time. The story is disjointed and tedious, and…
Killer Condom – 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
If you haven’t seen Killer Condom before, you should skip my paragraph of plot description because my enjoyment of the film was greatly increased by going in as cold and limp as possible. Detective Luigi Mackeroni (Udo Samel) is known for two things on the filthy and naughty streets of New York City: his big…
