Demonwarp

4K UHD

Bill Crafton is enjoying a quiet vacation at a remote cabin with his daughter Julie when, all of a sudden, a giant, Bigfoot-like creature bursts in, killing Julie and dragging her body off into the woods. A few months later, young Jack Bergman - the nephew of the cabin’s owner - arrives with his friends, under the guise of a fun-filled few days in the wilderness. However, when they find the place ransacked, Jack is forced to reveal the true purpose of the trip — to investigate the recent disappearance of his uncle Clem, amidst reports of other strange goings-on in the area. Sure enough, when night falls, Bigfoot reappears and attacks the group, dragging two of them away. As dawn breaks, Jack and the rest of his friends prepare to hunt the beast and unknowingly set off on a journey of bloody, otherworldly terror.

Based on an original story by John Carl Buechler - prolific special effects artist and director of Troll and Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood - and helmed by Emmett Alston (New Year’s Evil), DEMONWARP is a delirious late 80s creature feature which throws in everything and the kitchen sink, from hulking Sasquatches, ghoulish zombies, bloody sacrifices and monstrous alien overlords. Featuring Academy Award-winner George Kennedy (Cool Hand Luke, Just Before Dawn, Uninvited) and packed full of gratuitous nudity and head-ripping action, Vinegar Syndrome is thrilled to unveil DEMONWARP on UHD for the very first time, restored in 4K from its original camera negative and loaded with a wealth of newly-produced bonus features.
