VINEGAR SYNDROME:
The cult movie fan's ne plus ultra source for weird and wonderful cinema. The journey of the company from primarily rescuing, restoring, and then distributing on physical media, neglected, forgotten and despised genres of film (porn, trash, low-budget horror), has evolved over their lifespan to include production, theatrical screenings, and other byzantine twists and turns, and the fans of Vinegar Syndrome have been on an exciting ride during this evolution. Shawn Sullivan takes us on a terrific first-hand journey of his own with the label, mirroring the initial exposure to the Golden Age of Adult Cinema that many fans experience, the rush of nostalgia when re-watching an old bottom-shelf video store staple, or exposure to daring new voices in film that would otherwise never be experienced. Shawn's narrative voice is unique and thoughtful, and is entertaining for those who have never watched a Vinegar Syndrome release, but resonates even more for those of us who remember their own journey into the ridiculous, jaw-dropping, sometimes mind-blowing, occasionally... dangerous?... world of Vinegar Syndrome
