OUTSIDER 'CANUXPLOITATION' ODDITY THINGS WITH OVER FOUR HOURS OF BONUS MATERIAL & GRIM INDIE THE SECRET LIFE: JEFFREY DAHMER ON DVD 7/12 FROM INTERVISION
“BE PREPARED TO BLOW YOUR MIND... An experience like no other. THINGS is the work of a genius or a madman." -Severed Cinema
“IN A CLASS ALL BY ITSELF... Consistently astounding as it unfolds in all its bizarre glory,
and still unlike anything most viewers have ever seen." -Canuxploitation
FEATURING NEW INTERVIEWS WITH TOBE HOOPER (TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, POLTERGEIST) AND JASON EISENER/ROB COTTERILL (HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN)
In 1989, it became the first Canadian shot-on-Super 8 gore shocker commercially released on VHS. Today, it remains perhaps the most bizarre, depraved and mind-boggling chunk of 'Canuxploitaion' ever unleashed upon humanity. Adult film superstar Amber Lynn and co-writer/producer Barry J. Gillis star in this surreal saga about two friends who visit a remote cabin, only to discover a womb of monstrous horror that demands graphic dismemberment. It's an inexplicable orgy of eye ripping, beer guzzling, boob baring, skull drilling, sandwich making, chain sawing, bad acting and post-sync dubbing from co-writer/producer/director Andrew Jordan that has spawned its own disturbing cult of fans. Some will be repulsed. Others may be transformed forever. But you have never seen anything like THINGS.

“GRIM, VIOLENT AND SHOCKING... A pretty damn accurate reconstruction of Dahmer's 17-corpse murder spree. THE SECRET LIFE is ripe for re-discovery." -BeardyFreak.com
"A SERIOUS EFFORT ANCHORED BY CARL CREW'S STRONGLY FOCUSED PORTRAYAL.†- The Los Angeles Times
The shocking assaults. The grisly murders. The horrific story you only thought you knew: Carl Crew (BLOOD DINER) stars as infamous sex offender, serial killer and cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer, whose 14 year odyssey of evil continues to shock the world. Take a graphic trip inside the mind of a madman, from his sick fantasies and inner torments to his gruesome experiments and depraved 'souvenirs'. This is the still-controversial film directed by David R. Bowen - and produced two years before Dahmer was beaten to death in prison - whose release outraged the media, the victims' families and the public, yet remains acclaimed as an uncompromising portrait of the monster behind the headlines.
