Anthropology professor, Dr. Prell, has invited his class to a remote cabin in the mountains to research the mythical Abominable Snowman. Soon after they arrive, strange events begin to befall the students, including sightings of a huge, white, furry creature. When several members of the group go missing, only to be discovered dead; their bodies horribly mangled, fears mount that the legendary monster is very real and out for blood...but is everything as simple as it appears?
Low-rent gore, bizarre twists, and one of the strangest looking versions of Bigfoot in cinema history, Michael Findlay’s (The Touch of Her Flesh, Snuff) SHRIEK OF THE MUTILATED has earned, and lives up to, its reputation as one of the quintessential pieces of early 70s drive-in filmmaking. Produced and co-written by Ed Adlum (Invasion of the Blood Farmers) and photographed by Roberta Findlay (Tenement), Vinegar Syndrome is excited to bring this 42nd St classic to Blu-ray, in its fully uncensored and un-tampered with, original version, newly restored in 4K from its recently unearthed 35mm camera negative.

"A puré guilty entertainment piece. The Findlay marriage of Snuff fame came with this totally nuts yeti tale, a very por production design, original video and sound almost amateur but with such a charisma that will let you think how all these contrasts with the gritty finale. Highly recommended."
"Shriek of the Mutilated is a wonderfully eccentric horror film that combines mystery, monster-movie thrills, and exploitation flair into a uniquely entertaining package. Its snowy setting and offbeat atmosphere give the movie a distinctive personality that sets it apart from many of its contemporaries. It’s a fun cult favorite that rewards fans of weird, unpredictable horror with plenty of memorable moments."
"A very enjoyable cult horror release with plenty of vintage charm. The transfer is solid, the quality is strong for the material, and the extras add nice value to the package. A fun and worthwhile edition for collectors of offbeat horror."
"One of those movies that is so bad it's delightfully good. It wasn't exactly what I expected given that I hadn't heard of it before a blind buy on sale from Vinegar Syndrome and was therefore of any plot spoilers. Some of the plot twists were easy to spot immediately, others not as much. The performances come from actors who've been in no other films, or at best one or a few movies from Michael & Roberta Findlay. They're certainly not professional, but there is a kind of natural authenticity and charm to them nonetheless and perfect fits with the characters they are 'playing. ' A quintessential drive in feature that holds rewatchability providing two of the critical elements (blood and beasts) in perfect quantity."
"OK movie. Great cover art."
"Super strange sasquatch movie from the 70s that feels very regional. Great to have this one looking so good."
"Funny ''a guy in a suit'' movie. Will watch again !"
"Cryptid, yeti or Bigfoot, based horror entertainment. Fun storyline with a twist, kind of a slasher murder mystery feel. Great picture and sound. I got mine with a nifty looking slipcover. A few extras on disc."
"So glad we got his move. Great service and artwork on the movie"
"Hilarious "creature""
