HORROR, ACTION, AND STRANGE CINEMA: 35 NEW RELEASES FOR PHYSICAL MEDIA COLLECTORS

Vinegar Syndrome and their partner labels have unleashed a wave of 35 new Blu-ray and 4K UHD releases, delivering everything from gory horror to artful thrillers and forgotten regional gems. This month’s lineup embraces the full spectrum of genre film: revisionist vampire tales, DIY sea monster carnage, bruising martial arts, and eerie psychological mysteries. Highlights include Abraham’s Boys: A Dracula Story from Shudder, the effects-heavy The Demon Disorder, the neon horror-comedy Touch Me, and Brazilian werewolf musical Good Manners. Action fans can dive into the Cambodian fight spectacle Jailbreak or the blood-soaked vehicular slasher Death Cycle, while collectors of the bizarre won’t want to miss Sodomaniac or AGFA’s Teenage Riot Video Party quadruple feature. With restorations, debuts, and deep cuts aplenty, July is a treasure trove for serious physical media enthusiasts.
