The Carpenter - BLU-RAY

The director of InchHalloweenInch sinks his teeth into the bloodsucker genre with this horrific gem. James Woods stars as the leader of a Vatican-backed band of vampire hunters battling the minions of a six-centuries-old nosferatu, who's seeking an ancient artifact that will allow them to stalk in the daytime. Daniel Baldwin, Thomas Ian Griffith, Sheryl Lee, and Maximilian Schell also star.

Something is haunting the Englewood movie theater - an unseen force that comes alive after dark. Paranormal investigator Kyle Jennings is called in, but the moment he steps inside, the nightmare begins. The theater seals itself shut, the screen tears open like a doorway, and the low budget zombie movie playing suddenly becomes real. With the undead spilling into the aisles, Kyle must uncover the source of the disturbance before the entire theater becomes a feeding ground, and the only clues may be trapped inside the film itself. Long overlooked and scarcely distributed, Todd Norris' The Paranormal is one of the great InchlostInch achievements of the SOV era. Smart, sharply structured, and performed with an unexpected level of Polish, it pushes well beyond the scrappy expectations of it's budget. Norris brings a true filmmaker's eye to every frame, blending genre thrills with a clear affection for the moviegoing experience itself. For fans who think they've seen every corner of the Shot-on-Video landscape, The Paranormal is a revelation, and proof that the video was capable of far more than it was ever given credit for.
