Degausser Video is a brand new label created by several of the devious minds behind VS, which will bring to Blu-ray deluxe editions of both canonical and under-seen shot on video (SOV) genre cinema, in addition to work shot on film, but edited on tape, wherein the original film materials are believed to be lost or destroyed. Similar to Vinegar Syndrome's focus on FILM preservation, Degausser will work only from original analogue tape materials with an emphasis on maintaining the aesthetics inherent to each respective video format. Additionally, each title released by Degausser will be made available in an ultra limited "new" VHS edition, fitted in a custom designed hard shell light box.
Alferd Packer, awaiting his execution on the charge of cannibalism, recounts his harrowing story of survival in the snow-covered Colorado mountains while on an ill-fated quest for riches. After being convinced by a group of gold prospectors to join their expedition, Alferd loses his beloved horse, Liane, which unwittingly sets the men on an unplanned adventure, including encounters with a group of very unusual Indians, facing off with ultra-manly fur trappers, and, of course, fudge packing, all before becoming stranded in the freezing winter with no provisions. As tempers flare and stomachs growl, the posse is forced to make the only logical decision: eat each other!
From the deranged and brilliant minds behind the international TV sensation South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s legendary feature filmmaking debut CANNIBAL! THE MUSICAL is the over-the-top, all-singing, and all-dancing story of real-life Colorado cannibal Alferd Packer! Starring Parker as Packer and featuring a guest appearance from legendary experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage, this unpredictable and thoroughly unhinged musical memoir through one of the grislier footnotes in American history comes to Blu-ray from Degausser Video, newly restored from the best-surviving video and film materials; presented both from the video master plus, for the first time ever, from the only existing 35mm print, and featuring an exclusive and all new feature-length making-of documentary in addition to loads of archival extras and revealing new interviews!
