Description

There's always been something wrong with Andrew Williams. Despite being a straight-A, model student, his nerdy demeanor, difficulty fitting in, and generally unpleasant attitude have long made him a social outcast. Harassed by the jocks, ignored by girls, and simply an all-around loner, Andrew soon discovers that he has secret, supernatural powers which he can use against his bullies. But as those who have wronged him start to meet horrifying ends, Andrew makes an even more startling self-discovery: he is literally the Antichrist and his purpose in life is to bring about the end of the world...

A marvel of truly independent horror filmmaking, FEAR NO EVIL was created by first-time filmmaker Frank LaLoggia (Lady in White) when he was only 25 years old, with a cast and crew largely composed of Western New York area locals. Boasting a starring turn from former child actor Stefan Arngrim (TV's Land of the Giants), it was an instant smash hit thanks to its cleverly-written characters and legendary special effects-fueled final act. With its skillful combination of early Satanic Panic tropes and elements of a juvenile delinquent thriller, the film went on to become both a drive-in theater and video rental favorite. Vinegar Syndrome is delighted to present the world 4K UHD debut of this highly ambitious, bloody shocker restored from its original negative, and devilishly packed with extras including a bounty of fresh interviews, a brand new commentary and interview with LaLoggia, along with rarely seen archival materials.

    Fun Levels of Camp

    This film is very LGBT coded similarly to Nightmar on Elm Street 2. The villain is very over the top and flamboyant and it’s exactly the kind of film I’m into

    Fear....some evil!

    Highly recommended for fans of Carrie, Evilspeak, The Fury, Satanic horror and obscure 1980s supernatural cinema.

    The supplementary material alone makes this a particularly attractive release for serious horror collectors.

    One of those forgotten 1980s horror films that deserves considerably more attention. Vinegar Syndrome has done it proud.

    Camp

    Not the greatest satanic horror, but it’s a blast. Neon Jesus, gay schoolboys and religion. Very entertaining and the image is fantastic. Didn’t know about this at all before Vinegar released it
