Presented in partnership with Something Weird Video...

The American Genre Film Archive (AGFA) represents the world's largest theatrical catalog of exploitation cinema. Their home video line presents a diverse selection of movies, ranging from new preservations of classics from the vast library of Something Weird to the wildest in shot-on-video (SOV) titles. Vinegar Syndrome’s sister company, OCN Distribution, is thrilled to be representing this diverse and unique home video line!

A skull-smashing double feature from the AGFA grindhouse! Once lost and never legitimately released on home video, THE BLACK PANTHER OF SHAOLIN (aka BAMBOO TRAP, 1975) is a Filipino knockout that finds martial arts legends Ron Van Clief and Leo Fong locked in mortal combat with a gang of kidnappers. From there, THE BLACK SIX (1974)—directed by Matt Cimber (GLOW: GORGEOUS LADIES OF WRESTLING) and one of the first all-Black biker movies—tells the story of a motorcycle club (led by NFL stars Gene Washington, "Mean Joe" Greene, and more) that seeks revenge against white supremacists. But the action doesn't stop there. The second disc of this bone-cracking collection features all three volumes of MARTIAL ARTS MAYHEM—the beloved eye-gouging, gut-kicking VHS trailer compilation series from Something Weird Video.
