GRAVE SECRETS is part of our Vinegar Syndrome Archive collection, celebrating forgotten cinematic oddities from the video store era. This collection was inspired by our own brick & mortar video store, The Archive in Bridgeport, CT.
Unique to this line, each hand numbered limited edition release will come fitted in a specially designed, bottom loading VHS inspired slipcase, while also including a double-sided poster.
These releases will ONLY be available on our website and at participating indie retailers. Absolutely no major retailers will be stocking them. This release is strictly limited to 4,000 units and will never be re-released in another version by us.

Iris Norwood has just suffered a horrible car accident. While recovering in her large and secluded bed and breakfast, she starts to believe that someone - or something - is watching her. As the sinister presence grows increasingly apparent, she engages the help of a famed cynical paranormal psychologist, David Shaw, who is grappling with the recent death of his wife. Initially skeptical of Iris’ claims, it’s not long before David comes face to face with a shocking evil that is more menacing than anything he has encountered..
The first feature film directed by veteran genre film producer, Donald P. Borchers (Children of the Corn), GRAVE SECRETS is a deliberate throwback to classic haunted house chillers and stars Paul Le Mat (American Graffiti), Renée Soutendijk (Spetters, The 4th Man), David Warner (In the Mouth of Madness), and Olivia Barash (Repo Man). Elevated by gothic horror visuals by cinematographer Jamie Thompson (Decline of Western Civilization Part III), Vinegar Syndrome Archive presents this direct-to-video sleeper on Blu-ray for the first fine, newly restored in 2K from its 35mm Interpositive.

Reviews

Pretty weak tbh
"I missed this the first time it came back in stock but picked it up this time. Wasn’t really worth it if I’m being honest, there’s practically no special features on this thing and the movie isn’t anything special. Can’t say I can give it a strong recommendation."
— Aidan Z. (2/5)
