Since 2004, Bleeding Skull has explored otherworldly cinema through reviews, books, and home video releases. We shine a light on independent genre films that have flown under the radar but deserve to be seen by all. Fangoria has called Bleeding Skull “The go-to encyclopedia for trash, bizarre, and shot-on-video cinema,” while Vice referred to it as “like a fever dream glimpse into parallel worlds".

Welcome to Long Island's answer to RE-ANIMATOR. THE SOULTANGLER tells the story of Dr. Anton Lupesky, a rabid genius who develops a drug that allows users to inhabit corpses . . . and embark on gore-soaked murder-sprees. Shot on 16mm in basements and garages by director Pat Bishow on Long Island, this is body horror bliss that's filled with dreamlike imagery, wanton dismemberment, and an earnest devotion to storytelling in the spirit of H.P. Lovecraft.
