I'm fine with waiting, but it would've been nice to be given some information or a release date or something.

Was it a pre-order for Zipperface? They actually shipped me 2 in separate packages for whatever reason.

But... one arrived with the Slip damaged and a floater disc with scratches all over it inside the case, so it was a good thing after all.

I do hope they ship things better in the future. Large and loose white bubble mailers don't protect Slipcovers well at all in shipments.

No, it's the VHS of Naked Cannibal Campers. The website says only five copies are being manufactured (!). I don't know long it takes to make five VHS tapes, but my order still hasn't shipped.

Look like they've taken notes here:

^ Those are probably the higher priced bundles with all the swag.

EDIT: Nevermind, they only come with pins. I thought there was more.

They did actually. Culture Shock replied they usually do that, but wanted to get those packages out that day, and not wait until until USPS would pick them up the next day.

Yep, got mine yesterday and it was in a box with bubble wrap protection. Needless to say, Goodnight God Bless arrived mint.

Woke up to some great news in our email today. Two 1980’s SOV titles we’ve been trying to get since mid last year are now ours to release! We are really excited to put these out as they have never been released on dvd and are staples to the genre and the VHS tapes can fetch some absurd amounts.

In a future time, when things have reverted back to the days of the Old West, a man goes after the gang that murdered his brother.

You may remember we teased this film last month and many people guessed correctly. It seemed like a lot of people were just as excited about the film as we are and we’re happy to finally be able to announce this. More info TBA as we finish working on the special features.

Don't let our recent silence fool you, we've been prepping a ton of amazing new releases, and four of them have been scanned, and are now being color corrected and restored which includes Death Collector. We’ll have more updates on these releases as well as Creeptales very soon!

Also, as a bonus - included in those scans is a film we had to get signature authorization from Paramount to release the materials to us and we’re personally really invested in this one!

It looks like Slashdance is sold out at their website. Does anyone know of another place I could grab a copy from? I received Good Night God Bless and Zipperface in an order I placed at Diabolik, and while they are DVDs they are really well done, with excellent packaging and high quality slipcovers. Clearly a lot of effort went into these releases, and I'd like to add Slashdance to my collection.

Rayjg · 04-13-2021, 05:23 PM

I think they mentioned a future release under the Culture Shock label was very likely for Slashdance.

Furthermore, should the rest of us be worried?

Slipcover and insert art for the next release. Still DVD-only. They've mentioned a sneak preview of their first Blu Ray release (I assume Death Collector) is coming up on May 14.

RadicalThrasher · 05-05-2021, 04:18 AM

Creeptales is a lot of fun imo. Pretty tame, similar to something like the old Monsters tv show, definitely grabbing a copy. Also looking forward to Death Collector.

jmilo61 · 05-13-2021, 02:57 AM

Newly created Death Collector trailer.

Some more info about Creeptales. Though I haven't seen this one, it is giving me strong vibes of Franky and his Pals

I was thinking it would be a little more professional than Franky and His Pals. That's not to say it'll be more entertaining necessarily... I've never seen it, so I can't really comment much.

At the very least, CreepTales has several people involved who would go on to have legit professional filmmaking careers in some capacity.

RadicalThrasher · 05-14-2021, 02:01 PM

Creeptales is up on youtube, vhs quality. If you watch the first 5 or 10 minutes it'll give you a good idea of what you're in for. I'm going to order as soon as it goes up.
