Scream Team Releasing (the distributors of The Barn and 10/31) has announced the newest addition to the label, The Sleeper, a retro throwback directed by Justin Russell that pays homage to the early slasher films of the 80s’ such as Black Christmas, Prom Night, The House on Sorority Row, and Girls Nite Out
Originally released for purchase on DVD and VHS back in 2013, The Sleeper gained a cult following throughout the indie scene but eventually went out of print. The Scream Team is happy to say that after many years of slumber The Sleeper is now awake and ready to make some calls! Re-issued and now upgraded to HD as a brand new 2 Disc Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack. Packed with bonus features including an hour-long making-of featurette, and reversible case artwork. If you purchased the DVD years ago, don’t worry about having a duplicate copy, because the new DVD is an alternate version known as “The Lost VHS Transfer”.
Set in 1981, “the girls of Alpha Gamma Theta sorority are having a party. Amy, sick of living in the dorms, invites her roommate Ava to attend the party with her in hopes that they’ll both become Thetas. As the girls arrive, so does an uninvited guest watching them in the shadows. Amy’s choice quickly becomes a nightmare as the Theta girls begin to disappear one by one. Announcing his victims, the killer calls the house whispering the next to die. The police hunt for the missing girls and the killer, but will they find him in time? Or will all the girls sleep for good?”
