You better be bored if you're going to waste any money on this week's Horror In Your House. While there are a few indie films worth picking up for a lackluster weekend (Basement Jack, Evilution), you might want to save those pennies for Lionsgate's Blu-ray onslaught next week. Below you'll find the DVD/Blu-ray release for this Tuesday, November 17th.

HANGER: Viscous Circle Films
From Ryan Nicholson, the acclaimed writer-director of the cult hit Gutterballs, comes this gruesome horror tale in which revenge is sweet and sick and twisted and definitely served cold a balls-to-the-wall story of vengeance and murder that rises to new heights of perverse action and macabre behavior. Eighteen years ago, nine-months-pregnant Rose, a wrong-side-of-the-tracks prostitute, was killed when her pimp gave her an abortion with a hanger. Now, the deformed, surviving child, who was thrown in the dumpster, left for dead and mockingly called Hanger, is about to settle the score and any street trash, sex degenerate of murderous pimp better beware.

Reluctantly, Amelia takes the job, only to find the job isn't everything it seems.

RITUALS: Code Red

TAINTLIGHT: Splatter Rampage
TAINTLIGHT is the tale of Stella, a young girl who falls in love with an ancient, beautifully-bedhaired bloodsucker named Edgar. They struggle to stay together in the midst of vampire carnage, but a love triangle bubbles up when a Michael Jackson-loving werewolf named Jack comes forward professing his own love for Stella. Meanwhile, a rival group of "real" vampires led by the evil Razor McBleed are on the prowl, looking to put the stake to Edgar so they can feast on Stella and the rest of Bonejack Heights in this over the top horror parody with tongue firmly in cheek!
THANKSKILLING: Broad Daylight Pictures
An evil turkey is unleashed…and he’s one “fowl” mouthed bastard! Five college kids heading home for Thanksgiving break cross paths with the turkey, who’s possessed by an ancient Indian curse. In this hilariously gory spoof, the teens must stop the maniac bird before he kills them all!
VAMPIRE PARTY: Dark Sky Films
When the French make a horror/gore comedy, you know things are going to get extremely rude! Best friends and hardcore partiers Sam, Alice and Prune have scored invitations to Medici Night , the legendary VIP bash held every year at a remote castle. But when they discover that this wild party is being thrown by an elite race of blood-crazed vampires, they ll have to stake, stab, slice, bludgeon and blast their way out of a soiree where the hosts are thirsty and the bar is now open. Is it in bad taste to massacre a horde of undead guests even if they are a total pain in the neck?

Don't see Train though...it blows! |
My priority movie this week is Star Trek, but I think I'll also pick up Train. |
HANGER was ABSOLUTE crap. Maybe the worst movie Ive seen all year. There's nothing worse when "critically acclaimed" gets thrown in there to show you how a bunch of morons found quality in this. GUTTERBALLS was shit too. Dont waste your time. Make your own movie, and call it "critically acclaimed"... it'll be better |
TRain was actually not bad save for the last scene in the film and has some nice gore/bloodshed |
Gutterballs was one the worst films I've ever seen! |
