Hell Comes To Frogtown (1988) (Directed by R.J. Kizer, Donald G. Jackson)

 

  • Blu-ray
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Roddy Piper, Sandahl Bergman, Cec Verrell, Rory Calhoun, Nicholas Worth, William Smith, Kristi Sommers
  • SYNOPSIS: In a post-nuclear holocaust wasteland, Sam Hell (“”Rowdy”” Roddy Piper) is like most other survivors; a nomadic scavenger roaming the bombed out remnants of the world for food and survival gear. But Sam is also harboring a major secret that even he isn’t aware of: he’s the last fertile man on Earth. As unexpected pregnancies are discovered, the remnants of the government decide to capture him and, with the aid of scientist Spangle, fit him with a secure chastity belt to ensure his virility is used only when needed. After learning of a group of supposed virgins who are being held captive by frog-mutant savages, Sam is sent on a rescue mission to free the women and then, of course, impregnate them. Is he up for the job? You bet…
  • An ‘only in the 80s’ hybrid of post-apocalyptic sci-fi weirdness, cynical humor, and horror touches, director Donald G. Jackson’s HELL COMES TO FROGTOWN is every bit as crazy as its title implies.
  • GENRE: Science Fiction, Horror, Action
  • RATING: Rated R
  • RUN TIME: 86 Minutes
  • TAGLINE: A new breed of enemy has taken over the world… Sam Hell has come to take it back.

Decoder (1984) (Directed by Muscha)

 

  • Blu-ray
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: FM Einheit, William Rice, Christiane Felscherinow, William S. Burroughs, Genesis P-Orridge
  • SYNOPSIS: FM (FM Einheit of Einstürzende Neubauten) has discovered something incredible in the monotonous ‘muzak’ played through the fast food restaurant H Burger’s speaker system: the tracks are laced with subliminal messages designed to ensure complacency and consumerism. Experimenting with his discovery, FM soon realizes that by changing the type of music played, he can manifest a whole range of emotional responses and stir up the populace from their consumerist subordination. But as the diners are emotionally awakened, they become more and more prone to rioting and general social unrest, which puts FM in an increasingly dangerous position, especially when the sinister and mysterious organization behind the plot to keep the public complacent takes an interest in finding and stopping him…
  • An underground hit from Germany’s punk and new wave infused youth culture of the early 80s, director Muscha’s DECODER blends arresting visuals, urban industrial aesthetics, science fiction, and moments of shocking violence, alongside searing commentary on late 20th century consumerist culture. Co-starring punk icon Christiane Felscherinow and William S. Burroughs in a supporting role and featuring music by Soft Cell, The and industrial pioneers Einstürzende Neubauten, Vinegar Syndrome is proud to bring this criminally under-seen masterpiece of German weirdness to Blu-ray, in a brand new 2k restoration of its original 16mm camera negative.
  • GENRE: Horror, Science Fiction, Mystery
  • RATING: Not Rated
  • RUN TIME: 88 Minutes
  • TAGLINE: muzak is more than music
