    New York, NY - Camp Motion Pictures, the home entertainment company specializing in 80's and 80's-style DIY cinema, unleashes a terrifyingly cool micro-budget cinema collection of five feature films in an exclusive VHS Collector's Package that Joe Ziemba of BleedingSkull.com calls “A brain-baking vortex of D.I.Y. gore, suburban angst, and trash-gore exuberance!”
    .
    Eye-catching authentically '80s VHS poster illustration by noted graphic artist Vince Evans and “Big Box” design contains the never-before-released 1989 feature, The Basement, on VHS and DVD along with SOV cult cinema favorites Video Violence 1&2, Captives, and Cannibal Campout on DVD.

    About The Basement
    The Basement is the lost 1989 Super 8 anthology feature film directed by Timothy O'Rawe (Ghoul School). Restored by director of photography Michael Raso in 2010, The Basement is a shining example of 80's DIY cinema inspired by Amicus Films' Tales from the Crypt and features elaborate special make-up and creature effects by Scott Hart.

    The Basement Synopsis.
    Four strangers are summoned to the basement of an abandoned house by a mysterious entity known only as The Sentinel. One after another, they are forced to witness heinous deeds they have yet to commit - and which will damn them for all eternity.

    Swimming Pool - An unfaithful woman disposes of the evidence with a little help from a demonic water spirit.

    Trick or Treat - Classic monsters exact revenge on a bitter man who refuses to honor Halloween.

    Zombie Movie - Cocaine, hookers and reanimated corpses wreak havoc on the set of an independent film.

    Home Sweet Home - A young man questions his sanity after purchasing a house where torture and mass murder were committed 6 years before.

    About Captives
    Referred to as “the most accomplished SOV horror film from this era”*, Captives, the sophomore effort of director Gary Cohen (Video Violence 1&2), is now available for the first time in this director-approved version. *Bleedingskull.com

    Captives Synopsis
    Taken hostage by three violently deranged criminals, a woman fights back to save her baby and mother-in-law's lives in this gritty and suspenseful crime drama from Gary Cohen (Video Violence 1&2)

    Video Violence Synopsis
    In this gore-soaked cult classic, a young couple opens a video store in a small town populated by violence-addicted amateur filmmakers, lead by the demented Howard and Eli.

    Video Violence 2 Synopsis
    The sequel to Video Violence finds Howard and Eli pirating a cable TV channel for the purpose of furthering their brand of homegrown depravity, madness and murder.

    Cannibal Campout Synopsis
    Deranged orphans torture, mutilate and murder innocent campers in this DIY classic from Jon McBride.
