2000 Maniacs (Two Thousand Maniacs!) (1964) - Canadian VSC VHS

.

H.G. Lewis's seminal gorebombs are perpetually on fire in the world of tape collecting so it was a nice surprise finding this one yesterday. Video Service Corporation is a small Canadian outfit known to horror fans for being the first to distribute Bob Clark's Black Christmas on DVD with Critical Mass's 25th Anniversary Edition. This VHS is fairly recent, at least post-2000/pre-2004, but that doesn't necessarily make it a breeze to find. Such niche titles released when DVD was red hot in the marketplace seem nearly as hard to find as tapes from the early '80s.
