Jill has just returned home from college to the rural farm community where she grew up, only to discover that her parents have mysteriously vanished. Learning that her father, a banker, has become the local pariah for overseeing land foreclosures on local farmers, Jill quickly becomes the victim of a series of strange and increasingly depraved assaults. With only her childhood friend and former lover, Gary, and his mentally unstable brother, Mervo (Tiny Tim), willing to believe her, Jill begins to fear for her life. All the while, a stocking-masked killer is abducting, torturing, and brutally killing those closest to Jill...

An unrelentingly grim and perverse psycho-sexual thriller, BLOOD HARVEST mixes gruesome throat slashings, copious amounts of T&A, and an unhinged supporting performance from music sensation, Tiny Tim.

Reviews

Creepy Tiny Tim

"This is the kind of totally weird and grim psycho-sexual thriller I love. Not to mention the naturally creepy presence of Tiny Tim, which further enhances the film's unhinged aspect."

— Steven E. (5/5)

Bizarre 80s Regional Slasher

"Any fans of Tiny Tim owe it to themselves to seek out this utterly deranged regional slasher. It won't win prizes for great filmmaking, and it certainly isn't a great slasher, but it's good fun if you're into deeper slasher cuts, with some grim kills. Looked amazing too, for what it is. Good extras too."

— Kyle S. (3/5)

Tiptoe through the tulips with Marvelous Mervo.

"Pretty darn enjoyable piece of bizarre 80’s cinema. A must for people looking for deep cut slashers. The highlight being the out there performance from Tiny Tim, who manages to steal every scene he appears in as Marvelous Mervo the clown. Worth it for that alone! Extras are relatively light but you get a commentary with the producer, and strangely engaging home video footage of Tiny Tim performing a few songs and being interviewed by a fan while sitting in a car and drinking 7-Up. It’s kind of a gem, check it out"

— Ed C. (5/5)

Tiny Tim!

"Tiny Tim playing a creepy clown, what else do you need to know?"

— Craig G. (4/5)

Vinegar Syndrome Essential Title

"Definitely a must buy especially if your starting your vinegar syndrome collection"

— Derick M. (5/5)

Blood harvest Blu ray review

"Fun but strange slasher, very much of it's decade and weird to see Tiny Tim here. Shame I missed the slipcover but great booklet inside."

— James K. (5/5)

Tiny Tim horror movie!

"Tiny Tim steals the show. It's weird seeing him in a role like this but he's great. Jill the main character is lovable too. It's a weird one and well worth a watch!"

— Nolan L. (5/5)

Great transfer

"Amazing transfer especially compared to the uk blu ray, the movie though is not much fun, it doesn’t even feel like a movie just made up as they went along"

— Rohan J. (5/5)

Tiptoe through the murder with me

"Synopsis: Jill Anderson has come back to her small rural town for a family visit to discover her family is missing. Things are tense because papa Anderson works for a bank and a whole bunch of farms are being foreclosed on. She does have a couple of visitors that stop by often in the form of brothers. Gary, her ex-boyfriend, is there to offer emotional support and clearly wants to get back together with Jill despite the fact she has a fiancee in the big city. Merv AKA The Marvelous Mervo dresses like a clown, sings in a shrill voice and has bible passage monologues while kind of creeping poor Jill out. Not only does she have to deal with vandals and peepers but as she starts to reconnect with some old friends they start to get strung up like hogs and have their throats slit. Jill is in danger! Review: Tiny Tim is awkward as hell to watch as he tries to act in this but there is something sweet about his performance. The gore is actually the highlight in this film as the throat slitting scenes are gross and there is one impalement that looks very realistic. Itonia Salchek gets nude enough to satiate the sleaze hounds out there and has a fantastic body. Her acting is pretty good too. Carnage Count 3/5 Sleaze Score 3/5"

— Brett J. (3/5)
