Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Guess I’m glad I missed the last 2 Blu-ray releases of this. Gotta rewatch the laserdisc and see if I really want this.

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Fun movie, and better than I figured it would be when I finally got the Code Red Blu-ray back when a lot of their catalog would turn up cheap at Hamilton Book and other places. I’ll give TV credit for porting over the Code Red extras and the Code Red transfer as bonuses here. Rare to see that kind of inclusivity. And the new doc might be interesting. Definitely not a film that will benefit in any way from 4K, but it appears both the Code Red and 88 Films Blus are out of print and I could potentially flip my CR Blu for a hefty profit on Amazon Marketplace up here, which might make this tempting. Still, I can’t say I like the film that much. :lol:

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Terror Vision has a new sublabel: Death Nerve Video. Their first release will be announced tomorrow. No real hint (beyond a logo) what their specialty will be. The name conditions me to think of one of the alternate titles of Bay of Blood (I grew up knowing it as Twitch of the Death Nerve), but I'm guessing it's something else altogether.

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
^ I’m wondering if the word ‘Video’ in the name is a signifier or more regional SOV ‘stuff’ being given yet another dedicated line (with the main brand being reserved for the higher-profile stuff they seem to be gravitating toward lately). Just when you think those kinds of homemade pictures have been exhausted by all the Vinegar Syndrome sublabels, more previously (and sometimes rightly :lol: ) forgotten ‘rarities’ keep getting dug up. Curious to see what this is about.

https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/dvdtalk...0d35dda88a.jpg Death Nerve Video is a new sub-label from Terror Vision that will focus on giallo, neo-giallo, giallo-adjacent and influenced films in its catalogue. Sylvain (Pascal Cervo), a devoted projectionist and caretaker of a soon-to-close art house cinema, lives a life consumed by film. Each night, he personally screens a classic 35mm print to sparse audiences—but once the final reel ends, his obsession spills into terrifying real-life rituals. What begins as a melancholic ode to cinema’s fading past slowly transforms into a chilling portrait of repression, legacy, and psychological decay. The Last Screening is a love letter to films like Peeping Tom, Cinema Paradiso, Deep Red and Maniac, offering a dark and cerebral twist on the slasher/giallo genre, steeped in cinephilic reverence. Death Nerve Video is proud to present Laurent Achard’s unsettling psychological giallo horror film, The Last Screening. This makes its worldwide high-definition debut with a stunning new 2K restoration, scanned, and meticulously restored from the original 35mm camera negative. This also marks the first time the film has been distributed outside its home country. |
Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Huh. Hadn’t heard of that one. And now having read the critic reviews linked through the IMDb listing (the few in English anyway), I can’t imagine there’s been some longstanding demand for it in cult/slasher circles.

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Yeah, I can’t say I’m familiar either. The Last Screening more skillfully evokes another era better than most of the neo-gialli I’ve seen:
…but the reviews and comments I’ve seen make it sound like it’s really not for me, seeming to draw more comparisons to Maniac than a giallo and lots of complaints about its pacing. A giallo-centric line is certainly something I’ll keep my eye on, although that style of film seems so well-served on Blu-ray already that I’m not nearly as excited as I would’ve been a few years ago. Gialli are so hit-or-miss anyway, and my track record with not-really-gialli is even spottier. I’m a little surprised this was their choice to introduce the label — a long way from Celluloid Dreams kicking off with The Case of the Bloody Iris — but maybe that’s the point. |
Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Terror Vision says they have around 10 films lined up for Death Nerve but are looking more at quarterly releases, at least for now.

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
From what I understand The Last Screening was something that just got shown at some film festivals in the US and pretty much unreleased after that. So I guess it is good that it isn't just another rerelease of a title that has been readily available over the years.

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Brad’s comments on picking up Last Screening:
Last Screening has been something I've been trying to get distribution for quite some time but there were always obstacles in the way of that. Around 2021 was when we finally broke the mold and was able to sign the film and gain access to the material to scan and restore. Sadly, the director passed after approving the restoration and color correction. Never got to do an interview or commentary with him but I know he would be happy with the presentation and what we did with the film. I saw this back in 2011 at Fantastic Fest and was blown away by it and was irritated by the issues it faced with distro back then. Took a long ass time and a ton of persistency to nab it but here we are. |
Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
It’s unfortunate that the director died before participating further in the release. LAST SCREENING appears to be his third and final feature film – thirteen years before his passing – and there’s little information about or reviews of the other two (he also did some short films, and what appears to be an unseen documentary in 2022). None of this really improves the likelihood that that I’ll find LAST SCREENING to be some lost auteur masterpiece. I’ve seen tons of TIFF Midnight Madness movies over the years that seemed to ‘blow people away’ but which very quickly faded into obscurity after the festival circuit and aren’t available on disc or streaming. I do agree that it’s good that this isn’t just a re-re-re-release of some old evergreen title where you could still find previous editions quite cheap, so credit due for them digging up something genuinely obscure.

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
From TV's FB page HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT! After nearly half a century in obscurity, a lost slasher rockets straight to Beyond Fest. Following years of searching and relentless detective work, Terror Vision is proud to unearth a long-lost gem of horror cinema: the 1981 slasher SILENT DEATH! Premiering quietly in 1981 at a Newark, NJ theater, Silent Death had a very brief life on the big screen. After a couple of local showings and a stint at a 42nd Street grindhouse in NY, director Vaughn Christion struck a handful of VHS copies in hope of securing distribution for his debut feature. The effort fell short, and the film never saw release in any home video format—vanishing into obscurity and becoming somewhat of a myth. For decades, only a few people had ever witnessed Silent Death, and many dismissed the film as non-existent. But Terror Vision refused to let the story end there. Though they secured the rights and even located the original negative, they faced one huge problem: the sound was missing. After years of digging, Terror Vision finally uncovered one of the elusive VHS copies containing the film’s original audio, allowing them to restore Silent Death at last. Now, more than forty years later, this long-buried slasher can be experienced the way it was meant to be. Beautifully scanned and fully restored from its original 35mm camera negative, Silent Death will make its triumphant return to the big screen—beginning with its (re)premiere at Beyond Fest! Silent Death will screen at the Los Feliz 3 Theatre on Saturday, October 4th at 10pm PST. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, September 11, at 9am PST: https://www.americancinematheque.com...death-10-4-25/ Silent Death, starring David Arts, Freddy James, Natalie Carter, and Doyle Ray Taylor, is believed to be the very first slasher film helmed by a Black director—predating Axe ’Em (The Weekend It Lives) by more than a decade. Horror history has just been rewritten, and Terror Vision is extremely proud to give this film the attention it deserves! https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/dvdtalk...fb2a532370.jpg |
Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/me...dde75b9f2a.pngWeek 7 of 13 Weeks of Halloween! We are super happy to finally announce our release of HAPPY HELL NIGHT (1991) on BD/UHD. This project has been in development for almost five years. BUY HERE This Limited-Edition Slipcover (designed by Earl Kessler) is limited to 2000 and ships in November. On Halloween Night in 1965, disgraced Catholic priest Zachary Malius brutally slaughtered seven fraternity pledges after they desecrated his family’s crypt during an occult initiation. Declared insane and committed to an asylum, Malius became a dark legend spoken of in whispers at Winfield College. The sole survivor of that massacre, Henry Collins, never forgot the horror. Decades later, in 1991, pledge week is in full swing. Henry’s son, Eric, finds himself tangled in a deadly prank when his fraternity brothers send the new pledges to the asylum to snap a photo of the infamous Malius. But what begins as a hazing ritual quickly awakens a nightmare, as the mad priest is unleashed once more—and no one on campus is safe from his wrath. A chilling blend of gothic atmosphere and early-’90s slasher mayhem, Happy Hell Night brings blood, black humor, and a killer unlike any other back from the grave. Special Features and Info:
ICYMI: Sledgehammer, Invader and Arbor Day all arrived early this week with NO ISSUES!!! I know that sounds silly but the last time we received titles from this manufacturer, every single title had issues. Those three titles are shipping now. Gator Bait is still being worked on but it’s 85% there so should hopefully ship in October. Thanks for your support and patience! https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/me...b9e59103e8.png |
Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
Someone on the slipcover forum posted about finding a Walmart exclusive release of the WNUF Halloween special and the Out There Halloween Mega Tape in 1 set. The set has a new slipcover and TV spine number, AND is the same discs as the separate releases. Slipcover is not the higher quality like the typical TV releases, but the set is $20.

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
A new boxed set:
https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/dvdtalk...dc96ff8e3.jpeg https://www.terror-vision.com/store/...t-199119921998 This is a pre-order that will ship in Q1 of 2026. This is included in the Terror Vision Subscription. 90s Nightmares includes these 3 films, each with a slipcover and housed in a hard box designed by Earl Kess. LTD to 1500 units. Mountain Fury When a group of greedy developers move in and displace the wildlife in a local community, a group of radical murderous environmentalist start slicing and dicing the developers and workers in the area. These eco-warriors will do whatever it takes to stop these rich developers coming on their land. Terror Vision is bringing this very rare 1991 eco-horror “slasher-esque” film back to home video after decades of it being very scarce. Originally released by RaeDon entertainment in a very low quantity (and one of their last), they soon went bankrupt and closed their doors. Leaving a lot of their films in limbo and falling into scarcity. Now decades later, Terror Vision has obtained an original master of this one-of-a-kind eco-SOV that is shot and lit unlike any SOV film out there. Just get ready for a very weird, wild, and silly ride. Special Features and Info:
Guaranteed to be the last health club that you join! At Benson’s Health Spa, business is booming! And why not? With the “Look Beautiful and Stay Fit or Never Pay A Dime” promotion, people are literally selling their souls to join! A group of people get more than they bargained for when the spa they joined turns out to be a gateway to HELL! Terror Vision is sweating bullets over here with another rare and hard to find film that just keeps on giving. Hell Spa came out in 1992 by RaeDon Entertainment, this was another film in their last hurrah that quickly fell to obscurity and another of one of the rarest VHS tapes in the US. This release also includes the re-cut of the film in 2000 called Club Dead and the CD soundtrack! Special Features and Info:
In this atmospheric and spine-chilling tale from acclaimed filmmaker Maurice Devereaux (End of the Line, Slashers), a weekend getaway descends into a waking nightmare when a troubled man stumbles upon an eerie legend lurking in the misty woods of Quebec. Haunted by dreams and drawn to a mysterious lake, he uncovers the dark story of a woman wronged — and the vengeful spirit who now waits beneath the still waters. Blending psychological horror with Gothic folklore, Lady of the Lake is a moody, slow-burn descent into madness, obsession, and the supernatural. With chilling visuals, haunting sound design, and Devereaux’s signature flair for unnerving storytelling, this indie horror gem will pull you under — and never let go. Special Features and Info:

Re: The one and only Terror Vision thread
After watching that trailer for Mountain Fury, I think I will wait for the eventual 4K UHD release.
