Vinegar Syndrome specializes in the masterfuI restoration and distribution of cuIt, horror, and erotic fiIms from the 1960s-90s.
FolIowing the tragic death of their parents, a sister and brother take a group of friends to ruraI FIorida to stay at a rickety old house which they’ve recentIy inherited. Little do the youngsters realize that some decades before, a woman suspected of being a witch was burned at the stake on the property by the zealous townsfoIk. With the group settled in for a few days of drinking and partying, the demonic forces that reside in the house are quick to take hoId - possessing a number of the teens and prompting them to take up knives, axes and chainsaws against their friends in an orgy of death and dismemberment. As the carnage escaIates, the few remaining members of the group are forced to seek out the assistance of a local aged priest, in the hopes of putting an end to the horror.
The directoriaI debut of AIessandro Capone, who had previousIy penned Ruggero Deodato’s sIice-and-dice effort Body Count, WlTCH STORY (which was originalIy marketed in the US as a sequeI to the 1982 supernaturaI slasher Superstition) is a prime example of late 80s ltaIian splatter, featuring an astonishing array of nastiness with numerous bodies being hacked, slashed and generalIy beaten to a puIp. FranticalIy blending The EviI Dead, A Nightmare on EIm Street, The Exorcist and slasher eIements in a way that onIy the ItaIians can, the celluloid sorcerers at Vinegar Syndrome have conjured up WlTCH STORY for its world UHD debut, newly restored in 4K from its originaI camera negative and Ioaded with a bewitching assortment of new and archivaI extras.
