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". Visit us at BLEEDINGSKULL.COM.
A window to the spectral world, the work of Antoine Pellissier—a physician by day and horror maestro by night—is the underground answer to Jean Rollin. FOLIES MEURTRIERES AND THE FILMS OF ANTOINE PELLISSIER is a 2-disc set that presents Pellissier's complete filmography for the first time on home video. From dreamlike slasher FOLIES MEURTRIERES to gore-soaked epic MALEFICIA, these handcrafted art-horrors from France are heavenly discoveries for discerning horrorheads. This set also includes the long-lost, uncut version of LES PROIES DU MAL (Pellissier's first feature) and DR. GORE, a feature-length documentary from Pauline Pallier.
