Gregg assumed it would be just another night out with friends, but things take an unexpected turn when he, his brother, and their girlfriends are kidnapped by the crazed Dr. Divine. The doctor, a twisted genius, has developed a radical method of life extension - transplanting the brains of his elderly and very wealthy patients into the bodies of the young. When Gregg escapes from the doctor's lair, but finds the local police unwilling to accept his story, he realizes that it'll be up to him to put an end to the doctor's diabolical 'treatments,' or run the risk of him and his friends losing their heads...literally.

Directed by career genre filmmaker, Joel Bender (Midnight Kiss, Gas Pump Girls), THE IMMORTALIZER revels in bloody surgical sequences, ubiquitous nudity, and a 'mad doctor' story which plays thematically as though the film were a 1930s poverty row horror feature updated for the late 80s exploitation market. Featuring colorful cinematography from four-time Emmy® nominee Alan Caso (TV's Six Feet Under) and a supporting performance from Melody Patterson (TV's F Troop), Vinegar Syndrome brings THE IMMORTALIZER to Blu-ray in a brand new 2K restoration.
