Lindsay and the band are on the road to success. But all is not as it seems.

STREET DATE: SEPTEMBER 29. Cinco De Mayo
Never give a recently fired professor a knife and a Day of the Dead mask. You're just asking for trouble. But, let's back up …
Humberto Valdez AKA "El Maestro" (Anthony Iava To'omata) is teaching at a small town junior college and he takes his Chicano studies course seriously … perhaps a bit too seriously. With the exception of a lone student, El Maestro is considered by the pupils and faculty alike to be a joke and out of touch with the real world. "El Maestro" comes down with a bad case of "Aztec Blood Lust" after being fired. It's a malady that has tragic side effects … for others. Possessed by a spirit to wreak havoc upon those who have taunted him, "El Maestro" becomes a one-man killing machine. Has an evil spirit truly possessed "El Maestro?" Or, has the pressure of entertaining on the holiday caused him to snap? Can he be stopped? To find out you'll have to watch Cinco de Mayo … if you dare.
Slasher // Video presents Cinco de Mayo, directed by Paul Ragsdale and starring Lindsay Amaral (Johan Jello: Attack of the Killer UFOs), Juan Botello (George Bidell, CPA), Kyle Duval (Alleycat) and Anthony Iava To'omata as "El Maestro."
STREET DATE: SEPTEMBER 29. Trashology
From the imagination of director Brian Dorton (Theatre of the Deranged) comes a thriller tinged with comedy. Part Pink Flamingos, part Tales From The Crypt, Trashology is a genre unto itself.
A college writing assignment leads Tracy (Laura Lee Black, Preexisting Conditions) to explore her passion for film, especially the "trash" genre made infamous by John Waters. Her research leads her to the book Trashology, firing her imagination and guiding the viewer through a trilogy of horror, revenge and vigilante justice tales (The Vat, Big Debbie and Inglorious *****es) paying homage to the man that started it all.
Slasher // Video presents Trashology, written and directed by Brian Dorton (Theatre of the Deranged) and starring Laura Lee Black (Preexisting Conditions), Jenny Coulter (Preexisting Conditions), Rodney Horn (Tales of Poe) and Douglas Conner (Theatre of the Deranged).
STREET DATE: SEPTEMBER 29. Deadly Prey
Human hunting for sport is the twisted premise of Deadly Prey, written and directed by David A. Prior (The Deadliest Prey, Relentless Justice) and starring Ted Prior (Killer Workout, The Deadliest Prey).
The sadistic and psychopathic Colonel Hogan (David Campbell, The Deadliest Prey, Relentless Justice) is a mercenary for hire who finds a benefactor in Don Michaelson (Troy Donahue, Shock 'Em Dead, Cry-Baby), a ruthless businessman in need of skilled killers for a special assignment. It's a win-win for both sides. Michaelson will finance Hogan's training camp and Hogan will use his trained mercenaries to help out Michaelson. Hogan has the manpower. What he doesn't have is the prey to hunt in preparation for the big day. His solution: troll the streets of Los Angeles and randomly abduct people. What Hogan didn't count on was that one of those people would be Mike Danton (Ted Prior, The Deadliest Prey, Relentless Justice). Danton, a Marine with killer skills, doesn't take too kindly to being kidnapped. Hogan, Michaelson and the mercenaries are in for a world of pain in the action-packed thrill ride Deadly Prey. Deadly Prey co-stars Cameron Mitchell (Hombre, Klansman), Dawn Abraham (Mike's Murder) and Suzzane Tara (TV's General Hospital).
STREET DATE: SEPTEMBER 29. The Deadliest Prey
The Deadliest Prey, a sequel 27 years in the making, reunites Deadly Prey co-stars Ted Prior, David Campbell, Fritz Matthews and director David A. Prior.
Sadist, psychopath, and a damn fine solider, Colonel Hogan (David Campbell, Deadly Prey, Relentless Justice) and his merry band of mercenaries are back for more in the sequel to writer/director David A. Prior's Deadly Prey. Will Mike Danton (Ted Prior, Deadly Prey, Relentless Justice) ever learn to let someone else take out the garbage? Kidnapped from in front of his home while emptying the trash, Danton finds himself back in familiar territory as prey in Hogan's twisted game of cat & mouse.
It's obvious that Hogan is also a slow learner. When will he understand not to mess with Danton, a U.S. Marine who learned to be "all that he could be" in 'Nam? The action and kills are amped up in The Deadliest Prey co-starring Fritz Matthews (Deadly Prey, Born Killer) and Cat Tomeny (Flesh Wounds, Enemies Among Us).
