Description

On the gritty streets of Mexico City, Commander Quiroga (Fernando Almada, Grave Robbers) and his partner Miranda (Julio Rasec, Mark of the Killer) more than have their hands full. Between firefights with drug traffickers and the chronic minibus stickups that the public is usually too afraid to report, there's now a demented rapist/murderer, Raúl (Ángel Sancho), who uses an unusual jeweler's tool to stab his random victims. A local radio show host (Nora Terrero, Don’t Panic) is eager to criticize the police's ineffective actions against crime and coaxes Quiroga onto her show for a chance to defend the police. As the police and other criminals close in on Raúl, he begins to unravel and turn his focus onto the people who are hunting him down.

Label Bio

Degausser Video is a brand new label created by several of the devious minds behind VS, which will bring to Blu-ray deluxe editions of both canonical and under-seen shot on video (SOV) genre cinema, in addition to work shot on film, but edited on tape, wherein the original film materials are believed to be lost or destroyed. Similar to Vinegar Syndrome's focus on FILM preservation, Degausser will work only from original analogue tape materials with an emphasis on maintaining the aesthetics inherent to each respective video format. Additionally, each title released by Degausser will be made available in an ultra limited "new" VHS edition, fitted in a custom designed hard shell light box.

    **** yeah!!

    I really like these LEDVHS. The artwork is really awesome and while I do have a VHS player, I probably wouldn’t use it for these just because they’re such cool collectibles.

    totally worth it.

    If you like the idea of a Mexican Dirty Harry vs an 80's slasher villain tossed into an action thriller. This flick is for you!

    This film is actually a lot of things including very low budget. This in combination with the story actually turns this mashup into an really good unintentional comedy.

    Some movies like to set a tone in the opening scene for how much tension and danger is going to be present for the hero to have to overcome. Not 38 Especial.

    This opens up with 2 cops firing an endless stream of bullets into drug cartel gangsters that fire even larger quantities of ammunition with even bigger guns at the cop duo. And missing every opportunity they have.

    I found myself laughing so much at this film. It tries sooo hard to be tough and scary and disturbing that they really made something magical with this movie. Unintentionaly of course.
