Vinegar Syndrome Unveils Frightmare and Demonoid Blu-ray Art
Vinegar Syndrome is bringing a double dose of 80s horror to Blu-ray for the very first time on October 20th, with both Demonoid (aka Macabra) and Frightmare (aka The Horror Star) being made available in HD on that date. While we wait for full details, the artwork has arrived.
Released in 1981, Demonoid was directed by Alfredo Zacarias. It centers on a British woman who visits her husband at the Mexican mine he is attempting to reopen and discovers that the workers refuse to enter the mine, fearing an ancient curse. The couple enter the mine to prove there is no danger and inadvertently release a demon which possess people’s left hands and forces them to behave in a suitably diabolical manner. The only way for possessed people to free themselves from this torment is to cut off their left hand, after which it scurries away in search of its next victim.
Directed by Norman Thaddeus Vane, Frightmare came along in 1983. In the film drama students decide to pay tribute to their favorite horror star by stealing his body from his crypt for a farewell party. They fail to realize their violation of the tomb has triggered powerful black magic, and Conrad hasn’t taken his final bows yet.
Both films come equipped with reversible covers, and you can check out all of the art below!
