THE WORLDWIDE UHD PREMIERE
It remains the most joltingly violent, psychosexual grindhouse shocker of the '80s, directed by a veteran of I Love Lucy and starring a frequently shirtless former teen idol with an epically demented performance by an Oscar® nominee. And now it can be experienced for the first time ever in UHD: Jimmy McNichol stars as an orphaned high-school student raised by his strangely overprotective aunt (Susan Tyrrell of FAT CITY fame) who becomes implicated in a grisly murder investigated by a psychotic police detective (an equally unhinged Bo Svenson of INGLORIOUS BASTARDS). 7x Emmy® nominee Julia Duffy (Newhart) and Bill Paxton (in one of his first film roles) co-star in this "jaw-dropping hunk of genre insanity" (Pop Culture Beast) and former DPP 39 Video Nasty - also known as NIGHT WARNING - now scanned in 4K from the original camera negative with 6 hours of new and archival Special Features.

Press Quotes
A deeply twisted shocker... You will never, ever, EVER find a psychotic she-monster more blood-chilling than Susan Tyrrell.
—Chris Alexander, ComingSoon.net
Brilliantly insane... Susan Tyrrell is to this film what Joe Spinell is to MANIAC.
—Cool Ass Cinema
An excellent shocker... Different, queasy and wildly ahead of its time. Susan Tyrrell delivers a character unlike any other in horror history.
—Mondo Digital
Unique and really entertaining... It's worth seeing for Susan Tyrrell's delightfully unhinged performance alone. Bo Svenson gives her a run for her money.
—DVD Talk
Criminally neglected... A nearly forgotten hunk of genre insanity, a jaw-dropping, psychosexual oddity and a wonderful movie that benefits from the eccentric performances of its three leads.
—Pop Culture Beast
Pretty fantastic... Tyrrell's wonderfully psychotic performance is equal parts Norman Bates, Aunt Martha and Baby Jane. Its leading-edge depiction of queer characters is fascinating.
—Confluence of Cult
A creepy movie with truly disturbing family dynamics.
—Fangoria
An underseen and surprisingly well-crafted horror gem that should not go overlooked.
—Bloody Disgusting
Delirious madness... This rare queer-positive slasher boasts a powerhouse performance from Susan Tyrrell and incorporates some surprisingly progressive content.
