Cavity Colors partnered with ORION PICTURES to commemorate the theatrical release of THE PRODIGY. There’s an image of Miles in the film, with his skull face paint and skeleton costume carving a pumpkin on Halloween (like any cool kid would do!) which stuck with Aaron Crawford (Co-Founder of Cavity Colors), and was particularly haunting and reminiscent of a vintage Halloween snapshot from the 70’s. Using this imagery, Cavity Colors and Hilary White created a design that harkens back to that era. PRE ORDER: SHIPS THE WEEK OF FEBRUARY 18th or sooner.

Thirteen years ago, at the Halloween Pumpkin Prom, the infamous Lawnmower Killer went on a brutal rampage, murdering several high school students, including Mary Graves' older sister, traumatizing her for life. Now, after the unexpected escape of a prisoner from the state mental hospital, who may or may not be the killer, it's up to hard-nosed gumshoe Dick Harbinger to solve the case before the Lawnmower Killer seeks out a new slew of victims at the upcoming Pumpkin Prom, that is if anyone is able to survive the hilarious horror hijinks leading up to it!
A raucous parody of horror films and teen sex comedies, predating the Scary Movie franchise by nearly two decades, director Greydon Clark's (Joysticks) WACKO features a mind blowing ensemble cast including Joe Don Baker (Goldeneye, Fletch), Stella Stevens (The Poseidon Adventure), George Kennedy (Charade), Charles Napier (The Blues Brothers, Supervixens), Julia Duffy (The Doctors) and Andrew Dice Clay in his first feature film role! Never officially released on DVD and barely available in any format since the 80s, Vinegar Syndrome brings this sidelined chunk of horror-comedy gold to Blu-ray, newly restored in 4k from its long lost camera negative!

Halloween at Aunt Ethel's is a comedy/horror written and directed by Joseph Mazzaferro, produced By Mazz Appeal Films, starring Gail Yost Mazzaferro, Madeleine Murphy, Sean Gloria, Stephanie Town, Chris Cavalier, Lisa McConnell, Rhyssa Kathryn Marie and Chris Burmester.
Joseph Mazzaferro describes his film as "more for the younger crowd, mainly guys who like sexy, raunchy, comedy. I feel movies are like the color blue. Some people like blue. Some people don't like blue." I enjoyed watching but I don't think I like blue enough to watch again. Check out the synopsis, trailer, reviews and stills below.
IMDb SYNOPSIS: Everyone in town knows the story of Old Aunt Ethel. It's said she makes Halloween candy and pumpkin pie out of the kids that trick-or-treat at her house. This Halloween, the neighborhood teens are going to find out the truth.
Reviews We can still use more Halloween in January, right? Well, Mazz Appeal Films and Hawk9 Productions' Halloween at Aunt Ethel's is now available on Blu-ray, DVD and Amazon Prime. Written, directed and produced by Joseph Mazzaferro ( Scathing), Halloween at Aunt Ethel's somehow manages to blend retro elements with modern audience grabbers to become one of the most successful horror-comedies to see release in 2018.
