Details

This listing is for the standard edition 4K UHD/Blu-ray set. The limited edition slipcover (designed by Robert Sammelin) was limited to 5,000 units and is sold out. The two versions are identical, aside from the slipcover.

While assisting on a dig, a construction worker accidentally destroys the final resting place of a demonic zombie, rousting him from his unholy slumber, and reigniting his taste for human flesh. Meanwhile, a group of teenagers have decided to spend the night camping in the woods for a Halloween hayride, only to have their partying interrupted with the arrival of an ever-growing army of bloodthirsty undead! Will anyone survive the night in one piece?

A lo-fi gore epic directed by actor and cinematographer Bill Hinzman (The Crazies), star zombie in the classic Night of the Living Dead, FLESHEATER (aka Revenge of the Living Dead) is a fitting tribute and homage to Romero’s chilling masterpiece, updating the setting to the late 1980s while piling on the gut munching, throat ripping, and limb tearing action. Vinegar Syndrome is delighted to bring this highly ambitious slice of regional madness to 4K UHD and Blu-ray, in a brand new, eye popping (and gouging) restoration from its original 16mm camera negative, presented in its cinematographer and producer approved 1.33:1 aspect ratio for the first time on disc, along with a host of brand new extra features!

Reviews

Flesheater. Eat or be eaten!

"Flesheater is often forgotten in the long list of 80s zombie films, only a select people remember this one. I had it as part of a old DVD boxset and at the time really liked it. I finally decided to bite the bullet and upgrade and while the film looks great, the only thing it had going for me was the gore and kills. It's pretty boring to me, doesn't really move the needle much but for the price I paid i can't complain. I did like the one extra I watched about the makeup, always love stuff like that."

— Sebastian J. (4/5)

Day and Night and Day of the Living Pervy Dead

"Fun little regional gorefest from the cemetary ghoul himself. Ticks off all the best regional horror boxes: amateurish acting, stiff line reading, awkward staging, flat sets, ample nudity and generous gore. Pretty much all you can ask and hope for."

— Joseph R. (4/5)

FleshEater

"Plot: A construction worker accidentally wakes up an old demonic zombie on a dig. The monster starts a bloody rampage while local teenagers camp out for a Halloween hayride."

— Zach S. (5/5)

It's no Night of the Living Dead

"The story is completely unoriginal and it's got sub-community theater levels of acting - but that's what some of us enjoy. This one's best for connoisseurs of low-budget regional film."

— MARC N. (3/5)

Cool to revisit a classic zombie

"Flesheater is nuts. Some great kills and the cover is really cool. It's part of the Night of the Living Dead universe. It stars the classic graveyard zombie and it's nutty. It's a lot of fun."

— Nolan L. (5/5)

In name only

"Hinzman cashing in on Romero's cult classic. Not like everyone else hasn't done the same! Fun, trashy but overall inessential."

— Austin A. (3/5)

Awesome release!

"What a great release. Super cool low budget indie movie. Love that VS puts so much love and care into these types of movies"

— Natasha B. (5/5)

Grade A Zombie fun

"I’ve heard for years how I’ve needed to see this classic and it took too long in my life to see this beautifully gross film"

— Steven R. (5/5)

Yes, its bad. But thats what makes it good.

"This movie is bad. In the perfect, get drunk with your buddies and have a blast way though. Poorly written, horrifically acted, everyone should be commended on how it comes together in a gory fun mess."

— Alison S. (3/5)

Mostly good fun even with

"Mostly good fun even with its obviously low budget, although a bit of a slog at times."

— Matthew R. (3/5)
