Iconoscope is a new Vinegar Syndrome sub label dedicated entirely to television, produced by long-time VS film scanning technician and restoration artist, Brandon Upson. With a focus on genre-based, English language (and possibly international) productions, Iconoscope will be preserving, restoring and releasing made-for-tv films, mini-series, and multi-season series ranging from well known big productions to more obscure, and even lost, regional rarities.
While Jim Henley is taking his family on a scenic road trip through the Nevada desert, his son Matt asks them to stop to photograph a ghost town called Weaver. The problem is, none of the locals seem to have ever heard of it, and it’s not on any of the maps except for a vintage one Matt dug up. Once there, they find more and more evidence that this abandoned town harbors something very alive and extremely perilous, and others who’ve gone to explore Weaver may have suffered horrible consequences. As they continue to poke around Weaver, an unknown force appears bent on making sure that Jim and his family aren't going anywhere.
An ambitious, thoroughly creepy thriller written and directed by prolific telefilm writer Walter Klenhard (Buried Alive II), DISAPPEARANCE uses the barren Australian outback as a stand-in for the US southwest for a tense tale inspired by desert horrors such as The Hills Have Eyes. Reuniting TV's L.A. Law veterans Harry Hamlin (Clash of the Titans) and Susan Dey (Looker), the film also boasts sweeping and eerie desert cinematography by David Connell (Storm of the Century) and an unsettling score by Shirley Walker (Final Destination). Iconoscope is elated to release this late-cycle telefilm on Blu-ray for the first time, newly scanned in 4K from its 35mm original camera negative and loaded with an array of supplemental extras.

Reviews
What a great discovery
"I’ve had so much fun watching these. Karloff is a great presence and there was really a lot of potential to grow had they ever been given the chance"
— Brennan B. (5/5)
Anthology 101
"I haven't watched every episode of this yet, but I have seen enough to make a final judgement. I really enjoy this anthology horror series, its cool to see Boris Karloff hosting and making a few appearances in the show, his role in the episode The Crystal Ball is especially enjoyable as he plays a philandering douchebag and I love it. The Twilight Zone this is not, but it has some cool ideas and mostly fun execution and I'm glad its been made available for the masses to bring home and enjoy."
— Derrick A. (4/5)
Precursor to Twillight Zone
"Actually a great little series that predates Rod Serling and the gang by about a year or so. Each episode has a little twist. I had a DVD set of this a while back and the quality of this transfer is leaps and bounds above that. It feels like a completely different show…not to mention the improved sound quality. Hoping for more unearthed gems from this sub-label!"
— Douglas A. (5/5)
Incredible Release
"The Veil is a quietly eerie anthology that leans into mystery and the supernatural rather than outright scares. Boris Karloff brings a calm, authoritative presence as host, guiding each story with a sense of intrigue and credibility. The episodes are simple but effective, giving the series a timeless, slightly haunting charm."
— Shawn M. (5/5)
A warm shot of nostalgia from a tv series I knew nothing about
"I have a love for anthology shows like The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits, which made The Veil a pleasant discovery. I opted for the standard edition because I usually don’t go for slipcases unless they have a booklet or something"
— Larry J. (5/5)
At long last!
"I purchased this one as a gift, so it is still in the shrink wrap. The packaging and artwork are definitely cool. Really interesting to see a long lost show like this fully released. Can’t wait!"
— Robert A. (5/5)
I'm one of the ones
"I'm one of the ones that had never heard of this until it was released under this new sub-label and I absolutely loved it. If future releases are like this, I'm in."
— Matthew R. (5/5)
Great New Line
"A great horror anthology - hope they release more in this line!"
— Frank M. (5/5)
Dope anthology series
"This is peak anthology"
— Avery X. (5/5)
Cozy cool set of Paranormal Tales
"Enjoyed the entire set. Once I realized how the show was gonna go (not as weird as I was wondering, but it's charming and delightful), it felt very cozy! I love the theme music a lot, and I like that the stories are purportedly true/based off real stories. Now as to the casing: having experience with VSAs and slip protectors, I got it out without a scratch. Thankfully I keep my discs in a binder, and I read the material then seal up my slips in protectors. . . but I would hate having to take this out if I kept my discs in there; it's true that it's a bit thinner material than VSAs. Hopefully the Icon boxes get an upgrade."
— Fin L. (5/5)
