VICE ACADEMY 1-6 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 stores, with locations in Bridgeport, CT, Denver, CO, Toronto, ON, and Pittsburgh, PA.

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 spot gloss slipcase edition (designed by Robert Sammelin) is strictly limited to 6,000 units and may (but probably not) be followed by a standard edition in the future.

Today, the sagas from the hallowed halls of the esteemed Vice Academy are legendary. From the early years of trapping porn producers to the villain who escaped from a CD-ROM to wreak havoc over the city, the expert hands of Vice Academy cops Holly, Traci, Candy, and Didi always managed to solve crimes and look dazzling while doing so. Capturing devious villains such as  Malathion, Queen Bee, Spanish Fly, and Heidi Ho was never easy, but under the watchful eyes and expert tutelage of Ms. Devonshire and the Commissioner, the Vice Academy team always managed to pull it off.

From their debut in the late 1980s, Rick Sloane's VICE ACADEMY movies were a runaway hit for a full decade. Between regular airplay on late-night cable television and popularity at the video store, the series relied upon broad and camp comedy, a rotating stable of B-movie starlets, and inspired riffs on popular culture and hit movies of the day. Alongside Sloane's regular cast and crew, the series includes lead roles by Linnea Quigley (The Return of the Living Dead, The Black Room), Ginger Lynn Allen (New York Ninja, Trashy Lady), Elizabeth Kaitan (Slave Girls from Beyond Infinity, Silent Madness), and Raelynn Saalman (Attack of the 60-Foot Centerfolds, Young Blood Fresh Meat). Finally nabbed from their original negatives by Vinegar Syndrome Archive, all six saucy entries have been booked and await indictment.
