Now the prefect time for good horror movies is Halloween time. So Visual Vengeance have given not one but two b-movie horror movies on deluxe Blu-ray. The two films are Vampires and Other Stereotypes and The Lycan Colony!
Vampires and Other Stereotypes (1994)
A pair of paranormal investigators are making their nightly rounds on the seedy streets of New York City when they encounter a group of party-hopping girls looking for a warehouse rave - who have also just accidentally opened a portal to hell. What follows is a night of practical effects monster mayhem as the group try to save themselves, and the entire planet, from a demonic invasion.
This film has been transferred to Blu-ray in 1080p in 1.33:1 aspect ratio from the new director-supervised SD master from 1-inch tape. The audio is presented in stereo and there is English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing. The film doesn't look bad on Blu-ray when you realize that the film is a low budget horror. But Visual Vengeance added a boat load of extras to this Blu-ray set. Take a look at what is included.
