Blood Sucking Pharoahs in Pittsburgh coming from 88 Films...

My favourite UK label have announced this corker. The latest edition to the Blu-ray Slasher Classics Collection. This why 88 Films are so special.  I haven't even heard of this obscure sardonic slasher before. Really looking forward to it.

Here's what 88 Films said in the announcement on Facebook...

'In the same satirical spirit as HOLLYWOOD CHAINSAW HOOKERS or STUDENT BODIES, comes 1991's unfairly obscure splatter send-up BLOODSUCKING PHARAOHS IN PITTSBURGH.

Originally entitled PICKING UP THE PIECES, and featuring special effects from the great Tom Savini (MANIAC/ DAY OF THE DEAD), this first class mix of gore and guffaws makes its worldwide BluRay debut from 88 Films. Starring Veronica Hart, the erstwhile adult movie legend, as a weapon-wielding femme-fatale who is dedicated to lopping off limbs and chalking up a high body count in the name of an ancient religious cult, BLOODSUCKING PHARAOHS IN PITTSBURGH is one of the most deranged darkly humoured hack 'em ups that you have (probably) never seen.
Proving that the female of the species is far deadlier than the male, this latest addition to 88 Films' influential Slasher Classics Collection is a true gem of slice and dice delirium waiting to be rediscovered...'

88 Films are really doing some special slasher & cult movie fans. Please show your support when ever you can. Apparently they have another Slasher to announce in the not so distant future. Very exciting. For a while most of the slasher BD's were coming from the US but recently 88 Films have really turned the tide.
