In dumpsters, in the gutters, and even hanging from hooks... the streets of Los Angeles are being littered with murdered sex workers. A sinister John with a sizable wallet is tempting desperate women into dangerous traps. If the police (Simon Di Soto, Lawrence Scott, and Susanne Smith from Night Ripper) cannot find the killer, then who will? Maybe it will be a former detective (Tommy Kirk, Babes in Toyland, Blood of Ghastly Horror). Or perhaps it will be a couple of guys (Larry Thomas, "Seinfeld," Austin Powers and Guy Ecker, Night Terror, The Devil Wears White) shooting a documentary about prostitution."

'Robinson's Garden' (1987) - Released by Kami, blu-ray available from partner label Vinegar Syndrome direct - $27.99

"This special limited edition slipcover (designed by Connor Willumsen) is limited to 1,000 units and is only available here at VinegarSyndrome.com!

Named after Yasujiro Ozu’s custom-made, tatami-level, crab-like tripod, Kani is a new home video label dedicated to leveling the gaze and furthering the understanding of Asian cinema in North America. Focused on genre-defying films, Kani aims to expand the canon, bolster up-and-coming filmmakers and reintroduce repertory classics in context. Vinegar Syndrome’s sister company, OCN Distribution, is thrilled to be representing this diverse and unique home video line!

On a drunken walk home, bohemian drug-dealer Kumi (Kumiko Ota) discovers an abandoned building on the outskirts of Tokyo. Attracted by the vast and untapped space rampant with luxuriant vegetation, she promptly sells all of her belongings and retreats from the world. She carves an island out of the concrete squat and wiles her days away growing cabbage and expressing herself in any way she pleases.

Following his gonzo hachimiri (8mm) debut SAINT TERRORISM (1980) and the memorable CARNIVAL IN THE NIGHT (1981), Masashi Yamamoto offers his defining punk statement. Winner of a Special Mention at the 1987 Locarno International Film Festival, ROBINSON'S GARDEN is a rare, radical vision of a marginal, multicultural Tokyo. Think Punk Rock rather than City Pop (the soundtrack features Jagatara, Hamza El Din, and Yoichiro Yoshikawa), this film offers a stark contrast to the sights of financial prosperity brought forth by the films of the Economic Bubble era. Lensed by Tom DiCillo (LIVING IN OBLIVION, JOHNNY SUEDE), it instead shares much in common with the No Wave films the cinematographer pioneered alongside Jim Jarmusch (STRANGER THAN PARADISE). An unsung, anticapitalist masterwork."


Special features and specs:
  • Region A Blu-ray
  • Interview with Masashi Yamamoto
  • Interview with Tom DiCillo
  • New Art by Connor Willumsen
  • New Writing by K.F. Watanabe
  • English Subtitles

'Summer Of Blood' (2014) - Released by Factory 25, blu-ray available from partner label Vinegar Syndrome direct - $27.99

"This special limited edition slipcover (designed by Stephanie Monohan) is limited to 1,000 units and is only available here at VinegarSyndrome.com!

Factory 25, a Brooklyn-based independent film distribution company was founded in 2009 by Matt Grady. F25 is a home for conceptually provocative narratives and documentaries. Its mission is to deliver specialized film and music titles in an aesthetically captivating way while exposing the indie world to under-the-radar films, music, and other curiosities in various ways and formats — theatrically, digitally, on TV, VOD, via subscription, limited edition DVDs, Blu-ray's, books and vinyl. Vinegar Syndrome’s sister company, OCN Distribution, is thrilled to be representing this diverse and unique home video line!

Writer/director Onur Tukel turns in a hilarious performance as the monumentally lazy, socially oblivious and commitment-shy Erik Sparrow, who is dumped by his career-woman girlfriend (Anna Margaret Hollyman, White Reindeer) when he rejects her rather charitable marriage proposal. Feeling lost, he turns to a disastrous string of online dates that successively eat away at his already-deteriorating confidence until a lanky vampire turns him into an undead ladykiller, with a maniacal sex drive matched only by his frenzied need to feed on blood. A collision of absurd, self-deprecating wit and existential curiosity, Summer of Blood is a hilarious horror-comedy with a clever bite all its own."


Special features and specs:
  • Region Free Blu-ray
  • 2014 and 2022 commentaries by Onur Tukel
  • 29 minute Vampire Interview with Larry Fessenden
  • 25 minute Vampire Interview with Lloyd Kaufman
